Massage Therapist -Averaging approximately $45-$59/hour
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to parse the posting: It's a job posting for Massage Therapist at The Essex Resort & Spa. The content includes:
- Introductory paragraph about the resort, mission, etc. This could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can use "About the role" for the introductory description.
- Then "BASIC FUNCTION: The Massage Therapist will perform massage, body and hydrotherapy treatments, and provide personal attention to each guest." That's a summary of role.
- Then "Essential Functions" list: bullet points (though they are separated by periods). We need to extract each essential function as list items.
- Then "Marginal Functions" list.
- Then "QUALIFICATIONS: EDUCATION, KNOWLEDGE, TRAINING, & WORK EXPERIENCE" list: high school graduate or equivalent; current license(s) and certificate(s) for massage therapy as required by the state, county, city/town; one-year experience administering massage, body and hydrotherapy treatments, desired; current CPR certification; ability to work under pressure.
- Then "Benefits" section: description about benefits, then list of benefits: Medical Insurance (with Employer contribution), Dental Insurance (with Employer contribution), Vision Insurance, Life & Disability Insurance (Employer paid), Voluntary Life & Disability Insurance – for employee, spouse/domestic partner and child(ren) (supplemental – paid by employee), Medical Care Flexible Spending Account, Dependent Care Account (for Daycare, elderly care or other dependent care), Short and Long Term Disability Insurances, Accident Insurance, Critical Illness Insurance for employee and spouse/domestic partner, Paid Time Off, Bereavement Time, 401(k) plan with Employer match after 1 year of employment (for employees at least 21 years of age or older, regardless of status, are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan with Employer match after 1 year of employment). Then "Property Benefits": On Property Discounts list: Restaurant, Spa (on treatments and products), Essex Kitchen; Other Discounts: Memberships to The Edge Sports & Fitness, Stays at the hotel for employee, friends and/or family, Movie tickets to Essex Cinemas, Essex Experience (varies by business), Stays at other New England Inns & Resorts as part of the NEIRA program, Ski passes to Smuggler’s Notch & Sugarbush/IKON; Other Benefits: Complimentary use of the on-site fitness center, Complimentary use of the on-site Tennis courts, Free Stay at the Resort (once per year for Employee & a guest) with Breakfast included (must be at least 18 years of age).
- There's also "Requirements" heading? Actually they wrote "Requirements Employees classified as full time year round are entitled to participate in the following benefits after they have met the eligibility requirements:" That seems like a mislabel; they then list benefits. So we should treat that as Benefits section.
- There's no explicit Pay or Schedule info. So we should not create Pay or Schedule sections.
- We need to avoid duplication: The "Benefits" description includes a paragraph then list. We'll output a Benefits section with
Benefits
then a for the prose description, then a
- for each benefit item.
- For "About the role": we can combine the introductory paragraphs about the resort and the basic function. Probably we should include the introductory paragraph about the resort and the BASIC FUNCTION sentence as prose. Could also include the "Essential Functions" and "Marginal Functions" under Responsibilities.
- For Responsibilities: we can combine Essential Functions and Marginal Functions as a list of duties. Could separate into two subheadings? But instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can have one Responsibilities section with a list that includes both essential and marginal functions.
- For Qualifications: we have the list under QUALIFICATIONS: EDUCATION, KNOWLEDGE, TRAINING, & WORK EXPERIENCE. We'll output as
Qualifications
then a - list.
- For Skills: Not explicitly listed; maybe we could infer from qualifications but better not to create a Skills section unless there is explicit content. The posting does not have a separate Skills heading. So we skip Skills.
- For About the role: we need to include the introductory fluff about the resort, the mission, etc. Also the BASIC FUNCTION sentence. We'll put that in a
.
- Ensure we preserve all substantive information: we must not lose any details. Let's extract all details.

We need to decide how to format these lists. Could flatten all benefit items into a single
- list, but that would lose grouping. However instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It doesn't forbid nested lists or headings inside. But we could keep grouping via separate
