We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present: About the role (maybe Summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real specific content. We have Summary (the paragraph after Summary). Responsibilities (list). Required Qualifications (list). Preferred Qualifications (list). Education (maybe part of qualifications). Physical Requirements (maybe not needed). Pay Range (specific numbers). Schedule (Monday through Friday; Days; 8:00AM - 4:30PM). Benefits not mentioned. Skills maybe from Preferred Qualifications (problem solving etc). We'll combine.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We need sections: About the role (maybe Summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe combine Required and Preferred?), Skills (maybe from Preferred), Pay, Schedule. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual pay range. Let's extract content: Summary paragraph: "The Breast Imaging Navigator will work within a medical interdisciplinary team to provide proactive case coordination, navigation, and education for patients in need of breast care treatment, including case management, utilization management and resource management for advanced imaging studies. The Breast Imaging Navigator will work under the direction of the radiologist and collaborate with the breast care center, oncology and referring providers to provide comprehensive and multidisciplinary breast care for the patient and family. The breast-imaging navigator follows health system policies and procedures, and assists with continually improving the quality and effectiveness of image case management and patient navigation." That's prose. Responsibilities: many bullet-like sentences. We'll turn each distinct duty into

Education section maybe separate but we can incorporate into Qualifications.
Physical Requirements maybe not needed as not a section heading we must include only if real specific content. It's there but it's a description; we could include as a section "Physical Requirements" if we want, but the instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could include but it's lengthy. Might be okay to include as a section but we need to decide. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we combine Physical Requirements into Qualifications or omit. Since it's not a typical heading like Benefits, Pay, Schedule, we could omit to keep sections minimal. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot drop it. So we need to include it somewhere. Could embed in a
under Qualifications or a separate section "Physical Requirements". Since it's substantive, we should include. But we can make a section "Physical Requirements" with
containing that description. That's okay. Pay: we have Pay Range $80,753.40 - $110,292.00 plus note. We'll include as
under Pay section. Schedule: Monday through Friday; Days; 8:00AM - 4:30PM. We'll include as
under Schedule. Benefits: not mentioned, so omit. Skills: we could create a Skills section from Preferred Qualifications (problem solving etc). But we could also incorporate into Qualifications. Since we already have Qualifications section, we could split Required and Preferred. But instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could have Qualifications (including both required and preferred) and Skills maybe redundant. Let's make Qualifications include both required and preferred, and maybe Skills omitted. However we need to capture problem-solving etc as part of qualifications. We'll include them under Qualifications as bullet list. Thus sections: About the role (Summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Physical Requirements, Pay, Schedule. Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use
for each section heading. Use
- for lists. Use
for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID. Let's craft. First, About the role:
About the role
thenwith the summary paragraph. Second, Responsibilities:
