Mental Health Professional
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 as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro paragraph about Lifeline Connections: vision, mission. That's about the organization, could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" maybe includes description of organization and position. We'll include a section "About the role" with that description. - Position title line: "POSITION TITLE: Mental Health Professional Non-Exempt Position" - we should not repeat job title as heading, but we can include it in a paragraph maybe under About the role? The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)". So we can include the title in a paragraph. - "RESPONSIBLE TO: Healing Animal Partners Program Director" - could be included in About the role or maybe as metadata. We'll fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Probably include in About the role paragraph. - "MAJOR DUTIES:" then list of duties. That's responsibilities. Use
- .
- "PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:" list. That's qualifications (preferred). Could be under Qualifications.
- "POSITION REQUIREMENTS:" list. That's requirements (mandatory). Use Requirements section.
- "GUIDELINES" paragraph about meeting requirements. Could be part of Requirements.
- "COMPLEXITY" paragraph describing complexity. Could be part of Responsibilities or maybe a separate section? Not a standard heading; we could incorporate into Responsibilities or maybe a separate "About the role"? Probably include in Responsibilities as description.
- "PERSONAL CONTACTS" paragraph. Could be part of Responsibilities or maybe a separate section? Not standard; we could include in Responsibilities.
- "PHYSICAL DEMANDS" paragraph. Could be a section? Not in list; maybe we could include under Responsibilities or maybe a separate "Physical Demands" but not allowed headings list only those given. So we should incorporate into Responsibilities or maybe a separate "About the role"? Probably include in Responsibilities.
- "WORKING ENVIRONMENT" paragraph. Could be included in Responsibilities or maybe a separate "About the role"? We'll include in Responsibilities.
- Salary line: "Salary: $26.31 - 36.23/hr DOE". That's Pay. So we need a Pay section with that info.
- Benefits paragraph: "The Benefits: ..." That's Benefits section.
- Application Process etc: we should remove application instructions. So drop "Application Process: ..." and "Send us your resume..." etc.
- Also remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present.
Thus sections:
About the role: include organization description, position title, reports to.
Responsibilities: include major duties list, plus complexity, personal contacts, physical demands, working environment.
Requirements: include position requirements list, guidelines.
Qualifications: include preferred qualifications list.
Skills: maybe we can extract from requirements: "Good verbal and written communication skills; Great attendance; Ability to work well with others in a treatment team." That's skills. Could be separate Skills section.
But we need to avoid thin sections. We could combine skills into Requirements or Qualifications. However we have a separate Skills heading allowed. If we have content, we can make a Skills section.
Pay: salary.
Benefits: benefits description.
Schedule: we have no specific schedule info besides working hours outdoors, maybe mention working hours? Not explicit schedule like full-time/part-time. The posting does not state schedule specifics. So we should not create Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It does not give schedule like "Monday-Friday 9-5". So we omit Schedule.
Now ensure we don't include filler like "DOE" maybe okay.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract.

POSITION TITLE: Mental Health Professional Non-Exempt Position

Skills: we could extract communication skills, attendance, teamwork from requirements. But those are already in requirements. Could still make a Skills section with those items. However to avoid duplication, maybe we incorporate them into Requirements and not have a separate Skills section. But the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine skills into Requirements. However we have a separate Skills heading allowed; if we make it, it'd be thin (just those three items). Better to omit Skills section and include those items under Requirements. Pay: "$26.31 - 36.23/hr DOE" Benefits: paragraph about benefits. Now ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Application Process:" etc. Now produce HTML fragment:

Make sure to preserve all details exactly as given, but we can rephrase slightly? Must preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. We can keep the same wording but maybe adjust punctuation. Should not omit any detail. Let's copy the text exactly.
