We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO, background check, AI disclosure, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: Intro paragraph: "At Northwestern Medicine, every patient interaction makes a difference in cultivating a positive workplace. This patient-first approach is what sets us apart as a leader in the healthcare industry. As an integral part of our team, you'll have the opportunity to join our quest for better health care, no matter where you work within the Northwestern Medicine system. We pride ourselves on providing competitive benefits: from tuition reimbursement and loan forgiveness to 401(k) matching and lifecycle benefits, our goal is to take care of our employees. Ready to join our quest for better?" This is about the role/overview. Then "Job Description Northwestern Medicine has an exciting opportunity for either a Nurse Practitioner or a Physician Assistant to work in our Cardiothoracic Critical Care Intensive Care Unit (CTICU)." That's role description. Then "Schedule: This position is ALL NIGHTS; each shift is 13-hours; start end times are ~6PM - ~7AMWeekends and holidays as assigned". So schedule info. Then "Clinical Responsibilities:" list bullet points. Then "Essential Functions:" list bullet points. Then "Additional Duties and Responsibilities:" list bullet points. Then "Qualifications Required:" list bullet points. Then "Additional Information" includes EEO etc which we must remove. Then "Benefits We offer a wide range of benefits..." but no specifics besides mention of tuition reimbursement etc earlier. Actually earlier they gave some benefits: tuition reimbursement, loan forgiveness, 401(k) matching, lifecycle benefits. Also later "Benefits We offer a wide range of benefits that provide employees with tools and resources to improve their physical, emotional, and financial well-being while providing protection for unexpected life events. Please visit our Benefits section to learn more." No specific details besides earlier mention. We have some benefits specifics earlier: tuition reimbursement, loan forgiveness, 401(k) matching, lifecycle benefits. Also sign-on bonus eligibility details. That's a benefit? It's a sign-on bonus eligibility. Could be included under Benefits or separate? Probably Benefits section. We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Schedule is stated. Benefits: we have some specifics (tuition reimbursement, loan forgiveness, 401(k) matching, lifecycle benefits). Also sign-on bonus eligibility details. So we can include Benefits section. Pay: not mentioned. So omit Pay section. Skills: not explicitly listed; maybe we can infer but we should not invent. So omit Skills. We need sections: About the role (maybe overview), Responsibilities (clinical responsibilities), Requirements (maybe qualifications), Benefits, Schedule. Also maybe Essential Functions and Additional Duties could be merged into Responsibilities? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They gave examples but we can choose appropriate headings. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for About the role (intro + job description). Responsibilities (clinical responsibilities). Requirements (qualifications). Benefits (benefits details). Schedule (schedule). Could also include Essential Functions as part of Responsibilities or separate? Could be under Responsibilities as they are duties. But we already have Clinical Responsibilities list; Essential Functions and Additional Duties are also duties. Could combine all duty lists under Responsibilities. But we must preserve all substantive info; we can combine them into a single

with all items from Clinical Responsibilities, Essential Functions, Additional Duties. However we need to ensure we don't lose any detail. We'll combine. Similarly, Qualifications Required list. Now produce HTML:
