We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invented details.

We need to parse the posting.
Job title: Police Victim Assistance Coordinator.
Classification: Non-Exempt (maybe not needed). Department: Police. Supervisor: Detective Division Lieutenant. Salary: $32.65 to $39.18 Hourly.
General job description: paragraph.
Supervisory responsibilities: paragraph.
Primary duties and responsibilities: list of duties.
Secondary duties and responsibilities: list.
Knowledge, skills, and abilities: list.
Qualifications for the job: required and preferred.
Certificates, Licenses, Registrations.
Working environment.
Physical requirements.
We need to map to sections: About the role (maybe general description), Responsibilities (primary+secondary duties), Requirements (maybe supervisory responsibilities? but we can combine), Qualifications (required/preferred), Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities), Benefits (none mentioned), Pay (salary), Schedule (none mentioned). We should only include sections with real content.
Thus we will have sections: About the role (general job description), Responsibilities (primary and secondary duties), Qualifications (required and preferred), Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities), Pay (salary). Possibly also Supervisory responsibilities could be part of Responsibilities.
We must not create Benefits or Schedule sections because not present.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to use for section headings. Use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details like supervisory responsibilities, primary duties list, secondary duties list, knowledge/skills/abilities list, qualifications required and preferred, certificates, working environment, physical requirements? The instructions say we should include sections only when posting has real specific content. It didn't say we must include all possible sections; we can include multiple sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Pay. But we also have other info like Supervisory responsibilities, Working environment, Physical requirements. Where to put them? Could be part of Responsibilities or About the role? The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It gives examples but not limited to those; we could also add other headings if needed? It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests we should stick to those headings. It also says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we should try to fit all substantive info into those categories.
Thus we need to map:
- About the role: general job description (purpose and goal). Could also include supervisory responsibilities? Might be part of responsibilities.
- Responsibilities: primary duties and secondary duties (maybe also supervisory responsibilities). We'll include both primary and secondary as list items.
- Qualifications: required and preferred qualifications (including experience, education, certificates, licenses, special requirements). Also maybe include knowledge, skills, abilities? But we have separate Skills section.
- Skills: knowledge, skills, abilities list.
- Pay: salary.
- Schedule: none, so omit.
- Benefits: none, omit.
- Requirements: maybe we could put supervisory responsibilities? But we already have Responsibilities. Could also put working environment and physical requirements under Requirements? The heading "Requirements" could be used for things like working environment, physical requirements, certificates, etc. But we already have Qualifications for education/experience. The instruction says we can use Requirements heading. It's ambiguous. We could put working environment, physical requirements, certificates under Requirements. But we also have Qualifications for education/experience. Let's decide:
We'll create sections:
- About the role (general job description)
- Responsibilities (primary + secondary duties + supervisory responsibilities)
- Qualifications (required + preferred education/experience)
- Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities)
- Requirements (working environment, physical requirements, certificates/licenses, special requirements)
- Pay (salary)
