Psychiatry
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. The posting includes summary about EDRP, qualifications, basic requirements, duties, benefits (Pay, PTO, retirement, insurance, licensure, CME, malpractice, contract, work schedule). Also mention "Pay: Competitive salary - annual performance bonus - regular salary increases". Also "Paid Time Off: 50-55 days...". Also "Retirement: Traditional federal pension...". Also "Insurance: Federal health/vision/dental/term life/long-term care". Also "Licensure: 1 full and unrestricted license". Also "CME: Possible $1 -000 per year reimbursement". Also "Malpractice: Free liability protection". Also "Contract: No Physician Employment Contract". Also "Work Schedule: To be determine by your supervisor". Also mention "Outpatient BHIP psychiatrists provide care..." as duties.
We need to decide sections: maybe "About the role" (summary), "Responsibilities" (duties), "Qualifications" (basic requirements), "Benefits" (PTO, retirement, insurance, CME, malpractice, contract), "Pay" (competitive salary etc), "Schedule" (work schedule). Also maybe "Skills" not present, so omit.
We must not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EDPR details? Actually EDPR is substantive: mention eligibility, award up to $200k, etc. Should we include that? It's part of summary. Could be under "About the role" or separate "Benefits"? It's a program. Probably include in "About the role". Keep all substantive info.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for duties we can list bullet points. For qualifications we can list bullet points. For benefits we can list bullet points.
We need to preserve all substantive info; not invent.

Basic Requirements
