We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Key content: - Intro description about UT MD Anderson, Clinical Cancer Genetics Program, role description. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the role" heading. - Responsibilities: listed under "Responsibilities" heading with bullet points. - Requirements: includes board certification, advanced training, communication skills, experience, ability to collaborate, must live in Houston area. Also education: Master's degree Genetic Counseling required. Work Experience Required: None. Licenses and certifications: ABGC certification required within 180 days, preferred CGC upon hire. - Qualifications: maybe combine with Requirements? But we can have separate sections: Requirements (certification, experience, location) and Qualifications (education, skills). However guidelines: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Skills). We need to decide which sections have content. - Skills: communication and presentation skills, ability to collaborate, etc. - Benefits: listed under "Why Us?" and later "The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center offers excellent benefits, including medical, dental, paid time off, retirement, tuition benefits, educational opportunities, and individual and team recognition." Also specific benefits: Employer-paid medical coverage starting day one for employees working 30+ hours/week, plus optional group dental, vision, life, AD&D, and disability insurance. Accruals for PTO and Extended Illness Bank, plus paid holidays, wellness, childcare, and other leave options. Tuition Assistance Program after six months of service and access to extensive wellness, fitness, and employee resource groups. Defined-benefit pension through the Teachers Retirement System, voluntary retirement plans, and employer-paid life and reduced salary protection programs. - Pay: Minimum Salary: USD 89,000, Midpoint Salary: USD 111,000, Maximum Salary: USD 133,000. - Schedule: Work Week: Days (maybe full-time). Also Hybrid Onsite/Remote. Could be schedule: Full-Time, Hybrid. We need to avoid boilerplate: EEO, legal statements, requisition ID, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Genetic Counselor". Use About the role heading for intro. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft sections:

Responsibilities

... each bullet ...

We need to preserve all substantive information. The responsibilities list is long; we need to include each bullet as

. Ensure we don't miss any. Let's extract responsibilities bullet points from the text: Under "Responsibilities" heading: - Direct Patient Care Provider - Provide detailed cancer risk assessment and genetic counseling services to patients and families referred to the Clinical Cancer Genetics Program - Assess recurrence risk and recommend medical or genetic testing based on analysis of risks, benefits, and costs - Facilitate cancer gene testing when appropriate - Interpret genetic testing results and communicate results to patients and referring providers - Document genetic testing results in the UT MD Anderson electronic medical record - Document genetic testing results in Clinical Cancer Genetics databases, including Progeny - Refer patients to Medical Oncology when appropriate - Refer patients to Gynecologic Oncology when appropriate - Refer patients to Gastroenterology when appropriate - Refer patients to Health Psychology and other specialties when appropriate - Provide cross coverage as necessary - Obtain out-of-state genetic counseling licensure(s) as required - Deliver direct patient care through telephone consultations - Deliver direct patient care through video consultations - Deliver direct patient care through in-person consultations - Liaison & Education - Serve as a departmental liaison for presentations and outreach activities - Serve as an institutional liaison for presentations and outreach activities - Serve as a community liaison for presentations and outreach activities - Participate in multidisciplinary conferences - Participate in grand rounds - Participate in provider conferences - Participate in patient conferences - Participate in sponsor programs - Participate in outreach events - Assist with the development and preparation of promotional materials - Assist with the development and preparation of educational materials - Assist with the development and preparation of referral materials - Support communication initiatives through various media channels - Conduct public presentations on hereditary cancer and genetic counseling topics - Conduct professional presentations on hereditary cancer and genetic counseling topics - Provide education to the public - Provide education to students - Provide education to healthcare professionals - Participate in instruction and training activities for students - Supervise students during cancer genetics rotations - Evaluate students during cancer genetics rotations from GSBS, Emory, Baylor, and other educational programs - Clinical & Research Studies - Assist with the design of clinical and research studies - Assist with the writing of clinical and research studies - Assist with the editing of clinical and research studies - Assist with the implementation of clinical and research studies - Initiate new clinical and research projects in collaboration with faculty members - Initiate new clinical and research projects in collaboration with multidisciplinary teams - Assist with participant recruitment for studies conducted within and outside UT MD Anderson - Communicate with research participants throughout study activities - Review clinical study materials - Review research documents - Review patient charts as required - Additional Functions - Travel to other UT MD Anderson locations as required - Perform other duties as assigned We need to include all these as list items. Could group under subheadings? Not allowed; only

for section headings. We could keep a flat list; but that would be huge. However we must preserve all substantive information; we can keep them as list items under a single
. That's okay. Now Requirements section: content includes: - Ideal candidate will be board certified as a Certified Genetic Counselor (CGC) through the American Board of Genetic Counseling or eligible to obtain certification within the required timeframe. - Candidates should possess advanced training in genetic counseling, strong communication and presentation skills, experience educating patients and healthcare professionals, and the ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary clinical and research environments. - Must live in Houston, TX area - Education: Master's Degree Genetic Counseling required. - Work Experience Required: None. - Licenses and certifications: Required: ABGC - American Board of Genetic Counseling. Must successfully pass the ABGC certification exam within the first 180 days of entry into Genetic Counselor job title. within 180 Days. Preferred: CGC - Certified Genetic Counselor By the American Board of Genetic Counseling (ABGC). Upon Hire. We might separate Requirements (certification, experience, location) and Qualifications (education, skills). But we can combine. Given guidelines: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements and Qualifications separate. Let's define: Requirements: board certification eligibility, must live in Houston, maybe work experience (none). Also maybe "Must successfully pass ABGC certification exam within first 180 days". Qualifications: Education (Master's Degree Genetic Counseling), advanced training, strong communication and presentation skills, experience educating patients and healthcare professionals, ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary clinical and research environments. Skills: maybe communication and presentation skills, ability to collaborate, etc. But we already have those in Qualifications. Could separate Skills: strong communication and presentation skills, ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary clinical and research environments. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's think: The posting mentions "advanced training in genetic counseling, strong communication and presentation skills, experience educating patients and healthcare professionals, and the ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary clinical and research environments." That's a set of qualifications/skills. We could put those under Qualifications. Skills could be omitted if redundant. But guidelines say we can include Skills section if there is real specific content. We have communication and presentation skills, ability to collaborate. That's specific. So we can have Skills section. Thus: Requirements: board certification eligibility (CGC or eligible within timeframe), must live in Houston, TX area, must pass ABGC exam within 180 days, work experience: none (maybe mention). Also maybe "Must successfully pass the American Board of Genetic Counseling (ABGC) certification exam within the first 180 days of entry into Genetic Counselor job title." Qualifications: Master's Degree Genetic Counseling required; advanced training in genetic counseling. Skills: strong communication and presentation skills; experience educating patients and healthcare professionals; ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary clinical and research environments. Benefits: list as per posting. Pay: salary range. Schedule: Work Week: Days (full-time), Hybrid Onsite/Remote. We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, legal statements, requisition ID, etc. Now craft HTML. We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed. Let's write.
