We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The posting includes many details. We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe Position Summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements/Qualifications (qualifications), Skills (maybe not explicit), Pay (pay details), Schedule (schedule info), Benefits (benefits info). Also maybe Union info? Could be part of About the role? But we can include a section for Union? Not required headings list; we can add other headings if needed but they said use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should stick to those headings; we can omit any that lack content.
We need to include Pay section: they gave training pay $20.59, Attendant base pay $20.59-$24.03 entry $20.59, Lead Attendant premium pay $22.59-$26.03 entry $22.59, Leadership premium $2.00 per hour. Also Language Pay mention.
Schedule: flexible hours, might include day, evenings, weekends, holidays; number of hours can change; no guarantee.

About the role: Position Summary paragraph.
Responsibilities: list of duties from Position Summary and other sections.
Requirements/Qualifications: list of minimum qualifications.
Skills: maybe not explicit; we could omit if no specific skills listed. Could combine with Qualifications? But they said prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. If Skills lacks content, omit.
We need to preserve all substantive info; we must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from posting.

We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions? Actually we should remove application instructions? The instruction says: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we need to remove the "How To Apply" and recruitment process steps? Those are application instructions. So we should omit the "How To Apply" and hiring process steps. Also remove "Click HERE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION..." etc if it's boilerplate. Also remove "Have a question? Loan Tran Polanco..." maybe that's contact info; is that considered application instructions? It's contact for questions; maybe keep as part of About Us? Might be okay to keep as it's not application instruction. But safer to keep contact as part of About Us? The instruction says remove application instructions; contact info is not exactly application instruction but could be considered. I'd keep it as part of About Us or a separate section? Not listed headings. Could embed in About Us paragraph.
We also need to remove duplicated lines: many repeats of pay ranges etc. We'll consolidate.
We need to preserve all substantive information: so we must keep pay details, schedule, benefits, qualifications, responsibilities, about us, union info, position summary, locations, language pay, etc.
We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We'll create sections:
About the role
with position summary and about us maybe.
Responsibilities
with bullet list of duties.
Requirements
with qualifications.
Pay
with pay details.
Schedule
with schedule info.
Benefits
with limited benefits.
We might also include Qualifications
but we already have Requirements; we could combine. The instruction list includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We could use Requirements for qualifications and maybe Skills for something else. Since we have no explicit skills, we omit Skills.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading.
We'll output only HTML fragment.
Let's craft content.
