- About The Team: maybe not needed as a section? Could be "About the role"? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content accordingly.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Also not include Job ID etc.
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to decide which sections to include.
We have content for:
- About the role: maybe a paragraph describing role: "Represents the face of our company to patients within the hospital systems at Quest Diagnostics, both as part of their routine health management or for insights into life-defining health decisions. The Phlebotomist II draws quality blood samples from patients while following established practices and procedures...." That's a description.

- Qualifications: maybe separate? But we have both "Qualifications" and "Skills". The posting includes "Qualifications" (Required Work Experience, Preferred Work Experience, Physical And Mental Requirements, Knowledge) and "Skills". So we can have sections: Requirements (maybe covering required experience, availability, transportation), Qualifications (maybe covering preferred experience, physical/mental, knowledge), Skills (skills list). But we need to avoid duplication.
Better to follow typical structure: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have schedule info: "Shift varies from Monday to Friday, 6:00 AM to 6:30 PM, with rotational weekends". That's schedule.
Pay: "$21.50 - $23.05 / hour". Also mention annual performance bonus compensation.
Benefits: detailed list.
Now we need to extract specifics.
Let's parse the posting.
