We need to output HTML fragment with sections only when content present. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. The posting includes: - Title: Music Therapist - York, PA Hours: Per Diem (we don't repeat title as heading) - Description: "The Music Therapist will be responsible for:" then a list of duties (many bullet-like sentences). So we can put under Responsibilities. - Education: Bachelor's Degree Required Master's Degree preferred -> Qualifications/Education. - Professional Experience: 2-4 years of related experience, basic instrument-playing ability, moderate vocal skills, considerable knowledge of music styles, ability to develop and use a variety of musical applications to coordinate a treatment plan -> Requirements/Skills. - Company description: Ascend Hospice & Palliative Care PA - mission etc. Could be About the role? Actually "About the role" maybe includes company description. We can put under About the role. - Benefits: "We are proud to Offer: Competitive Salaries Comprehensive Healthcare Benefits 401(k) Retirement Plan Paid Time Off Mileage Reimbursement Opportunities to advance and grow your career And More!" So Benefits section. - Pay: Not explicitly stated; only "Competitive Salaries" but not a specific number. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It says "Competitive Salaries" which is a statement about pay but not a specific figure. Is that enough? The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It says "states them" meaning actual content about pay, schedule, benefits. "Competitive Salaries" is a statement about pay, albeit vague. I'd consider that as stating pay (they mention salaries). However they also say "Competitive Salaries" under Benefits list. Might be better to include Pay section with that phrase? But they said "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." Since they state "Competitive Salaries", we could include Pay section with that sentence. However they also list it under Benefits. Could combine? The rule: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Might combine Pay into Benefits? But they are separate headings allowed. Since they mention Competitive Salaries, we could include Pay section with that line. However they also mention "Comprehensive Healthcare Benefits" etc under Benefits. So we can have both Pay and Benefits. - Schedule: They gave "Hours: Per Diem". That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with "Per Diem". Thus sections: About the role (company description), Responsibilities (list of duties), Qualifications (education), Requirements (experience and skills), Skills (maybe separate? Could combine Requirements and Skills). But we have both Requirements and Skills headings allowed. We could put experience under Requirements, and skills under Skills. However we have limited content; maybe better to have Requirements include experience and skills. But we need to follow rule: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Requirements and Skills into one section called Requirements (or Skills). But we have both headings allowed; we can choose to use only one if content fits. Let's decide: Use Requirements for experience and skill statements. Use Qualifications for education. Use Benefits for benefits. Use Pay for competitive salaries. Use Schedule for per diem. Use About the role for company overview. Use Responsibilities for duties. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now we need to format:

        Per Diem. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Also remove "Ascend Hospice & Palliative Care PA - is part of the Ascend family of Healthcare Companies." That's part of about the role. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract duties list exactly as given (the sentences after "The Music Therapist will be responsible for:"). List: - Demonstrates basic knowledge of the purpose, intent, and function of music therapy for various client populations. - Demonstrates basic knowledge of philosophical, psychological, physiological, and sociological bases for the use of music as therapy. - Demonstrates basic knowledge of the use of current technologies in music therapy assessment, treatment and evaluation. - Help patients to restore and maintain mental health, increase comprehension abilities, improve physical abilities and improve their overall wellbeing. - Instruct patients individually or in groups in prescribed instrumental or vocal music and music projective techniques such as guided imagery, progressive relaxation, or awareness of conscious feelings. - Communicates assessment findings and recommendations in written and verbal forms. - Observes and records accurately the client's responses to assessment. - Selects and implements effective culturally based methods for assessing the client's assets and problems through music. - Identifies the client's therapeutic needs through an analysis and interpretation of music therapy and related assessment data. - Selects or creates music therapy experiences and settings that meet the needs of the client. - Formulates goals and objectives for individuals and group therapy based upon assessment findings. - Provides preliminary estimates of frequency and duration of treatment. - Offers sensory stimulation that allows the client to use visual, auditory, or tactile cues. - Promotes relaxation and/or stress in music therapy sessions. (Note: "Promotes relaxation and/or stress" maybe typo; keep as is.) - Utilizes therapeutic verbal skills in music therapy sessions. - Sequences and paces music experiences within a session according to the client's needs and situational factors. - Conducts or facilitates group and individual music therapy with the use of improvisational skills. - Creates a physical environment (e.g. arrangement of space, furniture, equipment, and instruments) that is conducive to effective therapy. - Develops and maintains a repertoire of music for age, culture, and cognitive differences. We need to keep each as

      • . Education: "Bachelor's Degree Required Master's Degree preferred". We'll put that in

        . Professional Experience: "2-4 years of related experienceBasic instrument-playing ability, moderate vocal skills and considerable knowledge of music stylesAbility to develop and use a variety of musical applications to coordinate a treatment plan". There's missing punctuation; we need to split into list items. We can make items: - 2-4 years of related experience - Basic instrument-playing ability - Moderate vocal skills - Considerable knowledge of music styles - Ability to develop and use a variety of musical applications to coordinate a treatment plan Now Benefits list: "Competitive SalariesComprehensive Healthcare Benefits401(k) Retirement PlanPaid Time OffMileage ReimbursementOpportunities to advance and grow your careerAnd More!" We need to split. Items: - Competitive Salaries - Comprehensive Healthcare Benefits - 401(k) Retirement Plan - Paid Time Off - Mileage Reimbursement - Opportunities to advance and grow your career - And More! But "And More!" maybe keep as is. Pay section: "Competitive Salaries" (maybe duplicate). Since we already have Competitive Salaries in Benefits, but we can still have Pay section with that phrase. However to avoid duplication, maybe we should not duplicate. The rule: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we put Competitive Salaries only in Benefits, we still preserve it. Pay section would be redundant. But they said "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." They didn't forbid having both Pay and Benefits with overlapping content. However "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Having Pay section with just "Competitive Salaries" is thin; better to omit Pay section and keep Competitive Salaries under Benefits. However the instruction says we should include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. It doesn't forbid having Pay section if there is content; but we have content "Competitive Salaries". That's specific enough? It's a phrase. But we already have it in Benefits; duplicating would be thin. I'd choose to omit Pay section to keep fewer sections. However the rule says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we should avoid thin Pay section. So we will not include Pay heading; we will keep Competitive Salaries under Benefits. Schedule: we have "Hours: Per Diem". That's specific; we can include Schedule section with that. Thus final sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Benefits, Schedule. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. Let's craft:
