We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. The posting includes: Title: Medical Laboratory Technician/Technologist **Requires phlebotomy proficiency**. Then "Knowledge, Skills & Abilities" paragraph. Then "Patient Population". Then "Physical Requirements". Then "OSHA Exposure Classification". Then "Qualifications". Then "Duties And Responsibilities" with subheadings PEOPLE, SERVICE, QUALITY, FINANCE, GROWTH. We need to map to sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (maybe qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe education/certifications), Skills (maybe knowledge, skills & abilities). Benefits, Pay, Schedule: none present, so omit those sections. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to decide sections: Could have About the role (intro paragraph summarizing role). Responsibilities (list of duties). Requirements (maybe physical requirements, OSHA classification, patient population?). Qualifications (education, certification, BLS, experience). Skills (knowledge, skills & abilities). Benefits/Pay/Schedule omitted. We must use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use

  . For headings use

We need to turn duties into list items. Could group under each subheading? Probably just a list of duties. We also need to include "Knowledge, Skills & Abilities" as Skills section. Thus sections: - About the role: intro paragraph (maybe first big paragraph) - Responsibilities: list of duties (from Duties And Responsibilities) - Requirements: maybe physical requirements, patient population, OSHA classification? Could be considered requirements. But we also have Qualifications separate. The instruction: Use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to decide what goes where. We have content for Requirements: maybe physical requirements, patient population, OSHA exposure classification. Also maybe "Requires phlebotomy proficiency" is a requirement. Qualifications: education, certification, BLS, experience, etc. Skills: Knowledge, Skills & Abilities paragraph. We must not create sections with placeholder text. All have content. Thus:

  About the role

  ...intro paragraph...

  Requirements

  • ...list items: Patient population, Physical requirements, OSHA exposure classification, Phlebotomy proficiency requirement.
  But we need to preserve all substantive info; we can break into multiple
• items. Let's extract each piece: Patient Population: "The patient population served by South Texas Spine & Surgical Hospital is a minimum of 12 years and/or of adult stature to geriatric patients requiring or seeking pain and/or surgical intervention." Physical Requirements: multiple sentences; we can combine into one li or split. Probably one li summarizing. OSHA Exposure Classification: "Job Category I. Direct contact with blood or other body fluids to which standard precautions apply. Personal protective equipment is made available and must be worn." Phlebotomy proficiency: from title: "Requires phlebotomy proficiency". Could be included. Thus Requirements list items.
