We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real specific content. The posting includes: Position Summary, Job Summary, Essential Functions (with subpoints), Deliverables, Work Contacts/Employees Supervised, Decision Making Authority, Competency Statements, Working Conditions/Physical Effort, Position Qualifications, Job Competencies, Tools And Equipment Used, Education & Experience, Technology Skills, Certification & Licenses, Other Requirements, Salary Description. We need to map to allowed headings: About the role (maybe position summary), Responsibilities (essential functions), Requirements (qualifications, education/experience, certifications, other requirements), Skills (competency statements, technology skills), Benefits (none given), Pay (salary description), Schedule (work schedule). Also maybe Qualifications separate? But we can combine. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate like Reasonable Accommodations Statement? That's part of essential functions but we can keep as prose. Remove duplicated lines. Remove navigation/legal/EEO etc. There's none. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay section: we have salary description "$17.00 - $21.00". That's specific, so include Pay section. Schedule: Work Schedule: "30-40 hours, Monday-Friday (with varied evening/weekend hours)". That's specific, include Schedule. Benefits: none mentioned, so omit Benefits section. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for responsibilities we can list essential functions as bullet points. For requirements we can list qualifications, education/experience, certifications, other requirements as bullet points. For skills we can list competency statements and technology skills as bullet points. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can group them. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Family Advocate". Use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Schedule. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract content. Position Summary: "Are you looking for a career where you can make a difference? Are you looking for work that is relation-focused and not just a daily grind? We are looking for someone who is interested in coming alongside parents and caregivers to help strengthen their families. At FIVE18 Family Advocates guide their clients to resources, offer an ongoing connection and presence, and teach skills to equip. Does this sound like something that you would like to jump into?
