Healthcare$20.6–$31.94/hrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO, navigation, cookie, etc. Must preserve substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key info:
- Exemption Status Non-Exempt
- Hiring Range $20.60 - $31.94 (based on a full time schedule of 40 hours per week). Note: final offer will vary based on scheduled hours. Compensation for part-time or reduced schedules will be prorated based on scheduled weekly hours, experience, skills, qualifications, and internal equity considerations.
- Schedule Details: Monday through Friday Scheduled Hours 8-530p Shift 1 - Day Shift, 8 Hours (United States of America) Hours 40 Cost Center 10010 - 4142 Community Womens Care Union SHARE (State Healthcare and Research Employees) This position may have a signing bonus available a member of the Recruitment Team will confirm eligibility during the interview process.
- "Everyone Is a Caregiver" paragraph (about the organization)
- Under the direction... description of role.
- I. Major Responsibilities (list of duties)
- II. Position Qualifications (list of requirements)
- III. Physical Demands And Environmental Conditions (maybe we can include as part of Requirements or Qualifications? It's physical demands; could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section but we only have headings list; we could put under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can map content to these headings.
We need About the role: maybe the paragraph describing role under direction etc. Could be "Under the direction..." paragraph.
Responsibilities: the list under I. Major Responsibilities.
Requirements: maybe the qualifications (license/certification/education) and physical demands? Could combine.
Qualifications: maybe the same as Requirements? But we need to avoid duplication. Could treat Requirements as the license/cert/education, and Qualifications as maybe skills? But we have separate Skills heading optional. The posting does not list specific skills beyond duties. Could combine.
Better: Use sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (license/cert/education + physical demands), Qualifications (maybe none?), Benefits (maybe signing bonus?), Pay (hiring range), Schedule (schedule details). Also maybe we could include "Benefits" if signing bonus mentioned. The posting: "This position may have a signing bonus available a member of the Recruitment Team will confirm eligibility during the interview process." That's a benefit (possible signing bonus). So we can include Benefits section with that note.
We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". The hiring range is specific; we can include Pay section with that range and note about proration.
Schedule: Monday through Friday 8-5:30p, 8 hour day shift, 40 hours.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO statements, etc. Must remove all that.
We must preserve all substantive info: So we need to keep the hiring range sentence, note about final offer varying, proration, signing bonus possibility, schedule details, responsibilities list, qualifications list (license/cert/education, BLS/HS, medical assistant credential within 1 year, etc.), physical demands (lift up to 50 pounds, medium demand, standing/walking, etc.), and maybe the "Everyone Is a Caregiver" paragraph as About the role.
We must not include the equal opportunity statements, disability contact, etc.
We must not include the "Under the direction..." paragraph? That is substantive role description; we can include as About the role.
We must not include the "I. Major Responsibilities" heading; we will convert to
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO, navigation, cookie, etc. Must preserve substantive info.

We must not include the "Under the direction..." paragraph? That is substantive role description; we can include as About the role.
We must not include the "I. Major Responsibilities" heading; we will convert to Responsibilities
and list items.
We must not include the "II. Position Qualifications" heading; we will convert to Requirements
maybe, and include license/cert/education and physical demands.
We could also have a Qualifications
for any additional qualifications like "Medical Assistant credential..." but that's already in requirements. Could split: Requirements = license/cert/education; Qualifications = maybe "Ability to..." but not present. Safer to have only Requirements and maybe Qualifications omitted if no distinct content. But we need to avoid empty headings.
Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Check if any content for Skills: none specific; we can omit.
Now craft HTML.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We must not include any extra tags like or . Just fragment.
Let's extract prose for About the role: Combine the "Everyone Is a Caregiver" paragraph and the "Under the direction..." paragraph? The "Under the direction..." is more role-specific. Could combine both into About the role.
But we must not duplicate. Let's create About the role paragraph: "Under the direction of the appropriate licensed clinician, the Medical Assistant I (MA I) provides clinical care and performs clerical duties to support office/clinic functions. Will receive workplace education and training to assist providers and the healthcare team in the care of patients." plus the "Everyone Is a Caregiver..." paragraph about organization. That seems fine.
Now Responsibilities: list all items from I. Major Responsibilities. Need to preserve each bullet as
- . The list is long; we need to copy each sentence as separate bullet? The original list is separated by periods but not bullet points. We'll treat each sentence as a bullet. Must preserve all info.
Let's extract sentences:
