We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Sections present: - Overview (intro) maybe not needed as heading? Could be a

before sections. - About The Role: description. - Then bullet-like paragraphs: Administrative Coordination, General Practice Support, Billing and Financial Administration, Travel and Meeting Logistics, Team and Leadership Support, Litigation Support. These could be considered Responsibilities. - About You: qualifications, requirements, skills. - About Mofo (maybe not needed). - About Our Benefits: benefits. - Pay: salary ranges. - Schedule: not mentioned explicitly; maybe not include. We need to decide which headings to use. We have content for: - About the role (section heading

About the role

) - Responsibilities: we can combine the sub-sections (Administrative Coordination, etc.) into a
  • list. - Requirements: maybe "About You" includes education, experience, etc. Could be Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe overlapping; but we can split: Requirements (experience, education) and Skills (software proficiency, communication, etc.) but we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But instructions: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including education, experience, skills), Benefits, Pay. But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can omit those without content. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (education/experience), Qualifications (maybe certifications?), Skills (software proficiency, communication), Benefits, Pay. We could split About You into Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (technical and soft skills). Qualifications maybe certifications? The posting mentions "Bachelor’s or Associate’s degree in business, finance, or a related field and relevant certifications is highly preferred." That's qualifications. Then experience etc. Could be Requirements. Then skills: proficiency in MS Office, etc., communication, etc. Thus we can have:
