Pharmacy Technician I - Pharmacy Services * Shift Varies 16hrs/wk

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: General Summary (could be About the role). Knowledge, Skills And Abilities (includes requirements, qualifications, skills). Essential Functions And Responsibilities (responsibilities). Also includes details about shift, FTE status, on-call, weekends, requisition #. Those are metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. We should not repeat job title as heading (not given). No Pay, Schedule, Benefits unless stated. The posting does not mention pay, benefits, schedule specifics (only shift varies, weekends yes). That's schedule info but it's vague: "Shift: Varies", "Weekends: Yes". That's schedule info but it's not detailed; we might include a Schedule section if we have specific content. The rule: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). "Shift: Varies" is vague; "Weekends: Yes" is specific. But "Shift: Varies" is not specific. The rule says never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text like "varies". So we should not create a Schedule section if content is just "Varies". However we could include a short paragraph with metadata: maybe a

containing "Shift: Varies; FTE status: 0.4; On-call: No; Weekends: Yes; Requisition #: req12681". That seems appropriate. Now sections: - About the role: could use General Summary paragraph. - Responsibilities: Essential Functions And Responsibilities (long list). We'll put as

• items. - Requirements / Qualifications / Skills: Knowledge, Skills And Abilities includes many bullet-like sentences. We need to decide how to split. Could combine into Requirements (education, license, certifications, experience) and Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities). But we can also make one section "Requirements and Qualifications" but we need headings as per list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose to include Requirements, Qualifications, Skills separately if content exists. Let's extract: Knowledge, Skills And Abilities: - Must be 18 years of age or older. - Education: High school graduate or equivalent required. College courses or completion of a higher degree preferred. - Licenses: One of the following license types are required (in order of preference): Michigan Pharmacy Technician License, Michigan Pharmacy Technician License – Limited, Michigan Pharmacy Technician License – Temporary. The temporary license allows an applicant to begin employment while preparing to take the examination required for full licensure. Full licensure must be obtained within the 210 day temporary licensure period. - Certifications: Pass certified pharmacy technician examination from either of the following: Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) – Preferred, or National Healthcareer Association (NHA). Note: Pharmacy technicians that have not completed the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) certification program MUST obtain this certification within 1 year or 3 attempts from date of hire. - Preferred experience: (In order of importance): 1-2 years of hospital pharmacy experience or 1-2 years of retail pharmacy experience. - Good math/basic algebra background mandatory; as obtained through formal education or prior experience as a pharmacy technician. - ASHP / USP 797 based certification in aseptic technique preferred. - Is an accurate, independent worker, possesses good communication skills, and, cooperates and takes direction from others. We could split: Requirements: education, license, certifications, age, experience, math background. Qualifications: maybe same? Skills: communication, independent worker, etc. But we can also put all under Requirements and Qualifications combined. However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But we have headings list; we could include Requirements and Qualifications as separate if we have distinct content. Let's see: Requirements could be the mandatory items: age, education, license, certification, math background. Qualifications could be preferred items: college courses, preferred experience, ASHP/USP 797 certification. Skills: communication, independent worker, etc. Thus we can have three sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. Now Responsibilities: we have a huge list. We'll turn each sentence into
• . Need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We'll keep each bullet as a separate
• . Might be many but okay. Now About the role: General Summary paragraph. Now metadata: we can include a short

  at top maybe after About the role? Actually we could put metadata in a

  before sections. The instruction: "fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it." So we can add a

  containing the metadata. Now output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:

  Requisition #: req12681; Shift: Varies; FTE status: 0.4; On-call: No; Weekends: Yes

  Then
