Registered Nurse - Graduate Nurse - Center Valley
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes job summary, essential functions (which are responsibilities), qualifications (education, experience, licenses). No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should include About the role (job summary), Responsibilities (essential functions), Qualifications (education, experience, licenses). Possibly Skills? Not explicit separate list; essential functions include many skills but we can treat as responsibilities. No need for Skills section if not distinct. Also maybe "Requirements" could be same as Qualifications? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to decide which to include. The posting has "QUALIFICATIONS" heading. It also has "JOB SUMMARY" and "ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS". So we can map: About the role <- JOB SUMMARY. Responsibilities <- ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS. Qualifications <- QUALIFICATIONS. Possibly Requirements could be same as Qualifications but we already have Qualifications; we could omit Requirements to avoid duplication. No Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The essential functions are a long paragraph with many sentences; we could break into list items for each bullet? The original doesn't have bullet list but we can still make list items for each distinct duty? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It doesn't say we must convert prose to list; only if there is a list. The essential functions are a paragraph; we could keep as
. But we could also split into
- for each major function (like IDENTIFIES PATIENT CARE REQUIREMENTS, ESTABLISHES A COMPASSIONATE ENVIRONMENT, etc.) The text includes headings in caps like "IDENTIFIES PATIENT CARE REQUIREMENTS". Those could be treated as subheadings but we are only allowed
for section headings; we could keep them as or just within . Safer to keep as
preserving original text.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present.
We need to not repeat job title as heading. Not present.
We need to not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings.
We need to output only HTML fragment.

Better:

- The graduate nurse must register and complete the state board examination within 90 days from start date
- Work Experience: New graduate program; Previous health care experience preferred
- Licenses / Certifications: Current PA temporary practice permit required; Basic Life Support / CPR, as a healthcare provider, per the American Heart Association required
But we must preserve all substantive information; we can reformat as list but must not lose info. That's okay.
Similarly for Responsibilities we could break into list items for each major function. But the instruction says use list for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The responsibilities are a list of duties, albeit in paragraph. Could convert to list items for each heading (IDENTIFIES..., ESTABLISHES..., etc.) That would be more appropriate and follow instruction.
Thus we should produce - for each duty. Let's extract each duty heading and its description.
