However instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The Physical Job Analysis is a table; but we don't have a standard heading for it. Could we include a section like "Physical Requirements"? Not in the given examples. Probably we should omit it because not matching the prescribed headings. The instruction says use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "e.g." implying those are examples; but we should prefer those. Safer to stick to those. Thus we will not include Physical Job Analysis. Now produce HTML:
