maybe after a brief intro? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could have sections: Responsibilities, Qualifications (combining education/experience, knowledge/skills, licenses), Compensation (since we have range), maybe About the role? Not present. Could include a brief intro paragraph with location and employment details. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove that. We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include responsibilities list (many bullet points). Also qualifications: Minimum Education & Experience, Knowledge, Skills And Abilities, LICENSES AND CERTIFICATIONS. We'll combine into a Qualifications section with subheadings? But only allowed headings are
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We cannot create custom headings like "Knowledge, Skills And Abilities". We must map to allowed headings. The allowed list includes: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can use Qualifications for education/experience, Skills for knowledge/skills/abilities, Licenses maybe part of Qualifications or Skills? Could put under Qualifications.
