- Qualifications: maybe separate from Requirements? The posting has "Qualifications" heading with Travel, Education And/or Experience, Desired knowledge Skills and abilities, Additional Skills. We could combine into Qualifications section.
- Skills: maybe separate but we can include under Qualifications or Skills. Since we have both Qualifications and Skills headings allowed. We could put "Skills" for desired knowledge and abilities.
- Benefits: from Additional Information: "We offer a comprehensive package of benefits including paid time off (vacation, holidays, sick), medical/dental/vision insurance and 401(k) to eligible employees. This job is eligible to participate in our short-term incentive programs." Also mention compensation range? Pay: The Additional Information includes pay range description but says "Applicable only to applicants applying to a position in any location with pay disclosure requirements under state or local law: The compensation range described below is the range of possible base pay compensation..." However no actual numbers given. It says range described below but not provided. So we cannot include Pay section because no specific numbers. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Benefits are stated (package). So we can include Benefits.
- Schedule: Not explicitly stated besides travel 50% and hybrid. Could be considered schedule? Might be considered "Schedule" but not explicit. Probably not include Schedule unless explicit. We'll skip.
- Pay: Not included because no numbers.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe split into Requirements and Qualifications?), Skills, Benefits.
