We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Remove boilerplate, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Let's parse the posting. Content: - Intro about Duke Health, mission, etc. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About Duke University Hospital" etc. The posting includes "About Duke University Hospital", "Duke Nursing Highlights", "Duke University Hospital - General Medicine / Progressive Care Unit (8E) Licensed Practical Nurses - LPN Shift: Rotating (3 / 12 hour shifts per week)", "Unit Profile", "General Description of the Job Class", "Duties and Responsibilities of this Level", "Required Qualifications", "Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities", "Pre-employment Physical Capacity Testing Required", "Distinguishing Characteristics of this Level N/A", then EEO etc. We need to map to sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what content goes where. - About the role: Could include description of unit, mission, location, etc. The posting includes "About Duke University Hospital", "Duke Nursing Highlights", "Duke University Hospital - General Medicine / Progressive Care Unit (8E) Licensed Practical Nurses - LPN Shift: Rotating (3 / 12 hour shifts per week)", "Unit Profile". So we can put that under About the role. - Responsibilities: "Duties and Responsibilities of this Level" list. - Requirements: Could include "Required Qualifications" (education, experience, licensure). Also "Pre-employment Physical Capacity Testing Required". Also maybe "Distinguishing Characteristics of this Level N/A" (skip as N/A). So Requirements section includes education, experience, licensure, physical capacity test. - Qualifications: Might be overlapping with Requirements. But we need to follow instruction: Use sections only when posting has real specific content. Could combine? The spec lists separate sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. Often "Requirements" includes education, experience, licensure. "Qualifications" could be additional qualifications like certifications, etc. But here we have "Required Qualifications" heading in posting. That includes Education, Experience, Degrees, Licensure, and/or Certification. So that could be Qualifications. Then "Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities" could be Skills. Thus: - About the role: intro, unit profile, shift info. - Responsibilities: duties list. - Qualifications: education, experience, licensure/certification. - Skills: knowledge, skills, abilities list. - Benefits: maybe "Relocation Assistance (based on eligibility)" and "Quality of Life: Living in the Triangle!" Also maybe "Duke Nursing Highlights" includes Magnet etc. But those are more about the organization; could be Benefits? However Benefits section should be only if posting actually states them. The posting mentions "Relocation Assistance (based on eligibility)" and "Quality of Life: Living in the Triangle!" Also maybe "Duke Nursing Highlights" includes recognition etc. But those are not benefits per se but could be considered benefits. We'll include Benefits with those items. - Pay: Not mentioned. So omit. - Schedule: The posting mentions "Shift: Rotating (3 / 12 hour shifts per week)". That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with that detail. We must not include headings with filler like "N/A". Distinguishing Characteristics is N/A, skip. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. We must not include application instructions. We must preserve all substantive info. Let's extract substantive info: About Duke Health mission: "At Duke Health, we're driven by a commitment to compassionate care that changes the lives of patients, their loved ones, and the greater community. No matter where your talents lie, join us and discover how we can advance health together." About Duke University Hospital: "Pursue your passion for caring with Duke University Hospital in Durham, North Carolina, which is consistently ranked among the best in the United States. The largest of the four Duke Health hospitals with 1062 patient beds, it features comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic facilities, including a regional emergency/trauma center, an endo-surgery center, and more." Duke Nursing Highlights: "Duke University Health System is designated as a Magnet organization. Nurses from each hospital are consistently recognized each year as North Carolina's Great 100 Nurses. Duke University Health System was awarded the American Board of Nursing Specialties Award for Nursing Certification Advocacy for being strong advocates of specialty nursing certification. Duke University Health System has 6000 + registered nurses." Quality of Life: Living in the Triangle! Relocation Assistance (based on eligibility) Unit Profile: "The General Medicine Stepdown/PCU 8 East is comprised of 24 beds, 9 being Pulmonary Care Unit. Our patient population includes COVID/Respiratory with continuous Bipap and Optiflow, Trauma, Transplant, Neuro, Cardiac, OB, and Oncology, GIP Hospice team. Wound Care, Med-Psych, GI. This unit sees a diverse patient population including COVID and respiratory cases requiring continuous Bipap and Optiflow, trauma, transplants, neuro, cardiac, OB, oncology, and even GIP hospice care" General Description of the Job Class: "Assume responsibilities for direct nursing care of assigned patients under the supervision of a registered nurse or physician in patient care area. Provides nursing services to patients and families in accordance with the scope of the LPN as defined by the North Carolina Board of Nursing." Duties and Responsibilities of this Level: list of duties (multiple sentences). We'll put as
  • items. Required Qualifications: Education: graduation from approved Practical Nurse program. Experience: No experience required. Degrees, Licensure, and/or Certification: Current State of North Carolina LPN licensure or Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC). Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: list of many items. Pre-employment Physical Capacity Testing Required: note. Distinguishing Characteristics: N/A (skip). Now we need to map to sections. About the role: combine mission, hospital description, nursing highlights, quality of life, relocation assistance, unit profile, shift? Actually shift is schedule. But we might put shift in Schedule section. Thus About the role includes: mission, hospital description, nursing highlights, quality of life, relocation assistance, unit profile. Responsibilities: duties list. Qualifications: education, experience, licensure/certification. Skills: knowledge, skills, abilities list. Benefits: maybe relocation assistance and quality of life? But we already used those in About the role. Could also put them in Benefits. But we need to avoid duplication. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we put info in both sections, that's duplication but not invented. However better to avoid duplication. We can decide to put relocation assistance and quality of life in Benefits section, and keep About the role focused on role/hospital description. Let's see. About the role: mission, hospital description, nursing highlights, unit profile. Benefits: relocation assistance, quality of life (Living in the Triangle). Also maybe Magnet etc? But those are more about organization; could be considered benefits but we already used nursing highlights in About the role. Might be okay. Schedule: shift rotating (3/12 hour shifts per week). Pay: none -> omit. Now ensure we don't miss any substantive info: The posting also mentions "Duke University Health System has 6000 + registered nurses." That's part of nursing highlights. Also "Duke University Health System was awarded the American Board of Nursing Specialties Award for Nursing Certification Advocacy". That's also nursing highlights. Now we need to format. We'll output HTML fragment:
