EKG Tech
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
We have content: Overview (maybe "About the role") includes definition of position. Responsibilities list. Qualifications includes Education, Licenses/Certifications, Experience, Preferred knowledge. Physical Requirements and Working Conditions maybe could be part of Requirements? But we have specific headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include.
We have compensation min/max and schedule details: "Compensation - Min $19.30 -Max $29.55 Schedule: Day Shift/Mon - Fri/ 0630 -5/4'10's". Also later "40 Hours USD $19.30/Hr. USD $29.55/Hr." So we have Pay and Schedule.
Benefits: "Medical, Dental & Vision benefits paid by Employer!" So we have Benefits.
Skills: maybe we can infer from qualifications: knowledge of cardiac anatomy, arrhythmia recognition, Holter monitors, Zio's, EKG interpretation systems. Could be Skills section.
Requirements: maybe Education, Licenses/Certifications, Experience required.
Qualifications: maybe Preferred qualifications? But we can combine.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual specifics.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details from responsibilities, qualifications, etc.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll structure:

But we must not repeat responsibilities content; we could put skills separate but might duplicate. However we need to preserve all substantive info; we can keep responsibilities as list and skills as a summary of abilities. Might be okay. Better: Skills could be derived from qualifications: knowledge of cardiac anatomy, arrhythmia recognition, Holter monitors, Zio's, EKG interpretation systems. But we also have many skill-like responsibilities. To avoid duplication, maybe we skip Skills section and put those under Responsibilities. But we need to include Skills only if posting has real specific content for it. The posting does not have a separate "Skills" heading; but we can infer skills from responsibilities and qualifications. However instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could omit Skills if it would be thin. But we have qualifications and responsibilities already. We have Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections. Benefits: "Medical, Dental & Vision benefits paid by Employer!" Pay: min $19.30 - max $29.55 per hour; also 40 Hours. Schedule: Day Shift/Mon - Fri/ 0630 -5/4'10's (maybe means 06:30 to 5? Actually "0630 -5/4'10's" weird; but we keep as given.) We'll output:About the role

We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO, etc. We removed physical requirements and working conditions; they are substantive but we didn't include a section for them. Should we include them? There's no specific heading for Physical Requirements or Working Conditions in the allowed list; but we could fold them into Requirements or Qualifications?
