School Year Nurse
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We must not repeat job title as heading. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. For Pay and Schedule we can include only if posting actually states them. It does state Salary - $40.00/hour - $50.00/hour - commensurate with experience; along with a great work environment. That's pay info, but includes "commensurate with experience" which is filler? The rule: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The posting states salary range but also says "commensurate with experience". That is filler? It says "Salary - $40.00/hour - $50.00/hour - commensurate with experience; along with a great work environment". The phrase "commensurate with experience" is filler but we still have actual numbers. We could include Pay section with the salary range, maybe we can omit the filler phrase. We should preserve all substantive information; we can include the salary range and note that it's commensurate with experience? The rule says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. If we include the phrase "commensurate with experience" that is filler. We could rephrase to just include the salary range and maybe mention "along with a great work environment". That's not filler. So we can include Pay section with the salary range and note about work environment. Schedule: posting says "Monday-Friday, 2:00-6:00PM". That's specific, so we can include Schedule section. Benefits: posting says "along with a great work environment". That's vague; not specific benefits. Might be considered filler. Probably we should not create Benefits section unless specific benefits listed. There's no explicit benefits like health insurance, retirement etc. So we omit Benefits. Qualifications: we have Required and Preferred. We can combine into Requirements section? The headings list includes Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We can use Qualifications for required and preferred. We'll include Qualifications section with required and preferred bullet lists. Responsibilities: we have ESSENTIAL DUTIES And RESPONSIBILITIES (long). We'll put under Responsibilities heading. About the role: we have Position Overview paragraph. We'll put under About the role. Other metadata: Travel, Start Date, Location maybe we can fold into a short
or drop. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a paragraph after the sections for Travel, Start Date, Location maybe as a short paragraph. We must remove boilerplate like EEO etc. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft:

$40.00–$50.00 per hour (commensurate with experience) along with a great work environment.
Travel between BGCB sites and to activities as needed. Start date: October 2026 (desired start date; position open until filled). Location: Dorchester, MA (Berkshire Partners Blue Hill Club).
We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate. We removed EEO etc. Check for any filler: In Pay we included "commensurate with experience" which is filler but it's part of the sentence. The rule says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It says we should not emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. If we include the phrase "commensurate with experience" after the heading, that is filler text. However we could rephrase to avoid that phrase: maybe just "$40.00–$50.00 per hour; along with a great work environment." That still includes "along with a great work environment
