Part Time Van Driver (YAS)
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Position Summary (we can treat as About the role). Essential Duties & Responsibilities (Responsibilities). Required Qualifications (Qualifications). Preferred Qualifications (maybe also Qualifications or separate? Could be part of Qualifications). Knowledge, Skills & Abilities (Skills). Physical & Environmental Requirements (maybe part of Requirements? Could be separate but we can include as Requirements). There's no explicit Pay, Benefits, Schedule specifics beyond "Salary: $18.00 / Hourly" and "Schedule After-School / Part-Time Primarily weekday afternoons and early evenings". So we have Pay and Schedule content. Benefits not mentioned. So we should include Pay and Schedule sections.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Do not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We need to decide structure: maybe sections: About the role (Position Summary), Responsibilities (Essential Duties & Responsibilities), Qualifications (Required Qualifications + Preferred Qualifications), Skills (Knowledge, Skills & Abilities), Requirements (Physical & Environmental Requirements), Pay (Salary), Schedule (Schedule). Could also combine Requirements and Qualifications but better separate as per instruction.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's extract content.
Position Summary paragraph: "The League for People with Disabilities is seeking a dependable, safety-conscious, and compassionate Part-Time Youth Autism Program Van Driver to provide safe and reliable transportation for participants enrolled in Youth Autism Services (YAS) after-school programming. The Van Driver is responsible for transporting youth participants between approved locations, including schools, homes, The League, community-based activities, and other authorized program locations.
