We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes a description: "We are SGS – the world's leading testing..." That's about the company. Could be "About the role" or "About the company"? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have:
- Job Description Summary: description of role. Could be "About the role" or maybe "Job Description". We'll use "About the role".

It says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but better to stick to those. Physical Demands could go under Requirements or Skills. I'd put under Requirements.
