Seasonal Chef Instructor, Pastry (Sur La Table)
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Position Overview (we can treat as About the role). Key Responsibilities (Responsibilities). Physical Requirements (maybe under Requirements or Qualifications? Could be Requirements). Qualifications & Experience (Qualifications & Experience). There's no explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections. However there is schedule info: "Available to work between 12 and 16 hours per week, with a flexible schedule, including nights, weekends, and holidays." That's schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section. No explicit Pay or Benefits. So we omit those.
We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No Job ID.
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, AI statements, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to keep all substantive info: Position Overview, Key Responsibilities (with subpoints), Physical Requirements, Qualifications & Experience, Schedule info.
We need to format sections with
