We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes DEPARTMENT, REPORTS TO, STATUS, SUMMARY, Compensation, Schedule, ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES (with subcategories), Requirements (QUALIFICATIONS etc). We need to use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections that have real specific content. We have Compensation (Pay) and Schedule given. We have essential duties (Responsibilities). We have qualifications (Education/Experience, etc). We have skills (language, computer, etc). Benefits not mentioned, so omit Benefits. About the role maybe we can use SUMMARY as About the role. The department etc could be included in About the role paragraph.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We must preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc (none present). Remove duplicated lines.
We need to format lists with
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections that have real specific content. We have Compensation (Pay) and Schedule given. We have essential duties (Responsibilities). We have qualifications (Education/Experience, etc). We have skills (language, computer, etc). Benefits not mentioned, so omit Benefits. About the role maybe we can use SUMMARY as About the role. The department etc could be included in About the role paragraph.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We must preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc (none present). Remove duplicated lines.
We need to format lists with - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use
.
We need to decide structure: maybe sections: About the role (summary + department etc), Responsibilities (essential duties broken into subcategories maybe as lists), Requirements (education/experience etc), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements? Actually they have Requirements heading then subheadings: QUALIFICATIONS, EDUCATION AND/OR EXPERIENCE, LANGUAGE SKILLS, REASONING ABILITY, COMPUTER SKILLS, CERTIFICATES..., OTHER SKILLS..., PHYSICAL DEMANDS, WORK ENVIRONMENT. We could combine into Requirements section with subheadings? But instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should have those specific headings only. So we need to map content to those headings.
Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Schedule. Possibly also Benefits if present (not). We'll omit Skills if not distinct? But we have language skills, computer skills, other skills. Could put under Skills section. Qualifications maybe cover education/experience/certificates. Requirements maybe cover knowledge/skills? But we need to avoid duplication. Let's decide:
- About the role: include DEPARTMENT, REPORTS TO, STATUS, SUMMARY.
- Responsibilities: ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES content (patient care, clinical, operations). Could break into sub-lists but still under Responsibilities.
- Requirements: maybe the general statement "To perform this job successfully..." plus Reasoning Ability? Actually Reasoning Ability is more like skill. But we can put Reasoning Ability under Requirements.
- Qualifications: EDUCATION AND/OR EXPERIENCE, CERTIFICATES, LICENSES, REGISTRATIONS.
- Skills: LANGUAGE SKILLS, COMPUTER SKILLS, OTHER SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE AND ABILITIES (including vital signs, geriatric, etc). Also PHYSICAL DEMANDS and WORK ENVIRONMENT maybe under Skills? But they are not skills. Could maybe omit them? But they are substantive. However we have no heading for Physical Demands or Work Environment in allowed list. Could we include them under Requirements? Might be okay. But we must not create headings not in list. So we need to fit them somewhere.
We could include Physical Demands and Work Environment under Requirements as part of "Requirements" (since they are job requirements). Or we could create a separate section but not allowed headings. So we must incorporate them into existing allowed headings.
Thus:
- About the role: department, reports to, status, summary.
- Responsibilities: essential duties.
- Requirements: includes the general statement, reasoning ability, physical demands, work environment.
- Qualifications: education/experience, certifications.
- Skills: language skills, computer skills, other skills/knowledge/abilities.
- Pay: compensation.
- Schedule: schedule.
We must not include Benefits.
Now we need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract.
