We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting.

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting.
Content:
- Intro paragraph about Singing River Health System (caring etc). Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the organization". The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections apply.
We have:
- Shift schedule: Monday - Friday (8:00 AM - 4:30 PM) rotating Saturdays - 1 Saturday every 6 weeks (7:00 AM - 11:00 AM). That's schedule info. So we can have a Schedule section.
- Location: Singing River Pascagoula Hospital. Could be part of About the role? Could be a short paragraph.
- Job Description Summary: includes Position Overview and responsibilities.
- Education: High school diploma or equivalent required; some college preferred.

- About the role: Could be the introductory paragraph plus location and shift? Might be appropriate.
- Responsibilities: The job description summary includes duties: interviewing patients, obtaining demographic/financial/insurance info, screening for insurance pre-certification, minimizing medical risk, etc. Also contributions to revenue cycle.
- Requirements: Could combine education, certifications, experience, physical/mental/special demands? Usually Requirements section includes education, experience, certifications, etc. Qualifications maybe similar. But we need to decide to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Education, Certifications, Experience into a Requirements section. And Physical/Mental/Special Demands could be part of Requirements or a separate Working Conditions? Not listed as allowed headings. Allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can put physical/mental/special demands under Requirements or Qualifications. Skills could be separate: communication, customer service, computer proficiency, de-escalation training, etc.
We need to avoid filler like "N/A". So we skip License line.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can group them.

We need to ensure we didn't repeat job title as heading. We didn't. We removed boilerplate like disclaimer, apply now, etc. Check that we preserved all substantive information: Intro, location, responsibilities, education, certifications, de-escalation training, experience, reports to, physical demands, mental demands, special demands, skills (we captured many). Did we miss anything like "Must be able to work schedules assigned with the understanding that changes may be instituted according to the needs of the hospital for off days, shifts or weekends." That's about schedule flexibility; we could incorporate into schedule section. We have schedule but not mention of flexibility. Let's add a sentence: "Must be able to work assigned schedules, with flexibility for changes per hospital needs." We'll add to schedule paragraph.
