Valid driver’s license. - Qualifications: Might be overlapping with Requirements; but we can treat Qualifications as maybe the same? The instruction says use sections only if posting has real specific content. The posting has "Education And Experience" and "Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities". So we could map: - Requirements: Education And Experience (maybe also driver's license) - Qualifications: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (maybe also other specifics) - Skills: Could be derived from Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities but we already have that. However we need to decide which sections to include. We have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for: - About the role: yes. - Responsibilities: yes (essential functions list). - Requirements: Education And Experience (degree, experience, driver's license). Yes. - Qualifications: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (list). Yes. - Skills: Could be a subset but we already have Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities; maybe we can combine? But we need to avoid duplication. Perhaps we can put Skills as a subsection of Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities? But the instruction says use sections only when posting has real specific content. The posting includes a list under "Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities". That could serve as Skills section. However we also have Qualifications maybe for education/experience. Let's decide: - Requirements: Education And Experience (degree, experience, driver's license) - Qualifications: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (the list) - Skills: maybe we could omit because it's covered; but we need to include only if posting has real specific content. The posting does have a list of skills/abilities; we could treat that as Skills. But then Qualifications would be something else? The posting doesn't have a separate "Qualifications" heading besides Education And Experience. So we could map: Requirements: Education And Experience Qualifications: (maybe not present) -> skip Skills: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities However the instruction says use sections only when posting has real specific content. So we can skip Qualifications if not present. But we also have Benefits: The posting mentions Kelly offers eligible employees voluntary benefit plans including medical, dental, vision, telemedicine, term life, whole life, accident insurance, critical illness, a legal plan, and short-term disability. Also retirement savings plan, service bonus and holiday pay plans (earn up to eight paid holidays per benefit year), transit spending account, paid sick leave. So we have benefits content. Pay: Pay Rate: $55.86 – $62.07/hour door-to-door (limited benefits options available). So we have pay. Schedule: Not explicitly given; there is travel up to 80% as needed, employment type full-time contract (6 months). No explicit schedule like hours per week. Could infer full-time but not explicit. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Schedule not stated explicitly; we should not create Schedule section. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. Do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:
