We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: headings
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like EEO, navigation, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions.
We need to parse the posting.

Then "If this describes YOU, please apply today! www.nyap.org/employment" (application instruction, remove)
Then "The person in this position needs to follow a team concept and support both agency goals and co-workers. Employees must be able to effectively work with and be respectful and sensitive to persons from various cultures, socioeconomic, ethnic, religious, and racial backgrounds."

Then "Who we are We continue to expand and develop new and innovative programs for our communities and families. We offer a competitive compensation and benefits package which includes major medical, dental, vision, 401K, student loan assistance and generous paid time off. If YOU can envision it; WE can DO it! The possibilities are endless!" (duplicate of earlier)
We need to preserve all substantive info, but remove boilerplate/duplicated lines. So we need to consolidate unique content.
Let's identify sections:
- About the role / Who We Are / Working At NYAP: This includes mission, services, training opportunities, benefits (student loan repayment, medical/dental/vision, parental leave, 22 days off, 11 paid holidays, competitive salaries, 401k, summer hours off, tuition assistance, work anniversary trips). Also mention "Excellent training and continuing education and development opportunities offered on topics such as: PCIT, NMT, TF-CBT, BFST, CSAYC, TBRI, FFT and many, many more!" Also "Student Loan Repayment assistance, up to $1,200 per year! Medical, Dental, and Vision Parental Leave 22 Days Off Each Year! Plus 11 Paid Holidays Per Year! Competitive salaries and benefits including a 401(k), Summer Hours Off (reduced work schedule), Tuition Assistance, and Work Anniversary Trips!" Also earlier "We have been serving communities and clients since 1978..." etc.
We need to decide which headings to use: About the role (maybe combine Who We Are and Working At NYAP). Responsibilities (list). Requirements/Qualifications (maybe combine Minimum Qualifications and preferred). Skills (maybe list of skills like computer proficiency, driver's license, etc). Benefits (list). Pay (maybe mention competitive salaries but not specific number; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "Competitive salaries and benefits" but no specific number. According to rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state benefits (student loan assistance, medical/dental/vision, parental leave, days off, holidays, 401k, summer hours off, tuition assistance, work anniversary trips). So we can include Benefits section. Pay: only says "Competitive salaries" but no specific amount; that's vague; rule says never create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does state "Competitive salaries and benefits". Is that enough? It states salaries but not a number. The rule says "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state salaries (competitive). I'd argue that is stating them, albeit vague. But to be safe, maybe we can include Pay section with that statement. However they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Could combine Pay into Benefits? But they have separate headings for Benefits and Pay. Might be better to include Benefits only, and not Pay because it's not specific. The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state "Competitive salaries and benefits". That's stating salaries (though not specific). I'd include Pay with that sentence.
Schedule: The posting mentions "Candidate expected to work non-traditional evening and weekend hours needed." Also "A willingness to work flexible and non-traditional hours". Also "Summer Hours Off (reduced work schedule)". So schedule info exists. We can include Schedule section with those details.
Now we need to avoid duplication. Let's gather unique substantive content.
