We need to output HTML fragment only. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. The posting includes: About the role (the paragraph after "More About The Role" etc). Responsibilities (Essential Responsibilities). Requirements/Qualifications (the block). Benefits (Benefits Offered). Pay (Pay Range). Schedule? Not mentioned; no schedule details. Skills? Could be derived from competencies but they are listed under Competencies; maybe we treat them as Skills? The instruction: Use headings for those categories if content exists. The posting includes Competencies list; we could put under Skills heading. Also Requirements/Qualifications includes qualifications and requirements. We'll separate maybe Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says we can have both headings; but we should avoid thin sections. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But they said use headings for those categories if content exists. We have both Requirements and Qualifications content. Could output separate headings but ensure each has substantive content. The Requirements/Qualifications block includes: Full-time, on-site, ability to work on weekends when needed; High school diploma or equivalent; Associate degree...; Ability to lift...; Knowledge of OSHA...; Excellent computer skills...; Basic math...; Strong communication skills; Client service experience. That's both requirements and qualifications. Could split: Requirements (full-time, on-site, ability to work weekends, ability to lift, etc.) Qualifications (education, certifications, etc.) But we need to avoid thin sections. Might be okay to have both. Skills: we have Competencies list (Business Acumen, Client Service, Organizing and Planning, Learning and Self-Development, Motivating and Inspiring, Investigating, Analyzing, and Evaluating, Solving and Improving, Managing Complexity and Ambiguity, Change Management, Developing and Coaching, Cooperation and Collaboration). That's substantive. Benefits: list. Pay: Pay Range. Schedule: none -> omit. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate etc. We need to preserve all substantive information. So include all details from the posting. We need to format as HTML: use

for each section heading, then content: either

for prose or

  • for lists. We need to decide what is prose vs list. About the role: paragraph(s). Could be multiple paragraphs but we can combine into one

    with line breaks? Better to keep as

    with the text. Responsibilities: list of duties. Use

    • each responsibility. Requirements: maybe list. Qualifications: list. Skills: list of competencies. Benefits: list. Pay: maybe

      with the range. Let's extract exact text. About the role: The block after "More About The Role". Let's copy: "Reporting to the Regional Director of Operations, the Practice Manager manages all essential business functions in veterinary practice and supports the practice teams.
