for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should only include sections that have real content. So we can include About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications (minimum qualifications), Pay (pay range), Schedule (work shift, daily hours, varied nights). Possibly also include Requirements? But we have qualifications covering requirements. We'll not duplicate.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So responsibilities list should be
. Qualifications maybe list of items: basic knowledge, experience, work environment, etc. Could be . Pay: just a with the range. Schedule: maybe a
describing shift.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO statement, etc. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip EEO statement, location? Location is substantive? It's location of job. Should we keep? It's not a heading but could be in a short
. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." Location is metadata, we can include in a short
. Work type, shift, daily hours, driving required also metadata. We could include them in Schedule section or a separate meta paragraph. Since we already have Schedule section for shift/daily hours, we can include location maybe in a
before sections? But we should not add extra heading. Could add a
with location and work type etc. However we must not repeat job title. It's okay.
We need to preserve all substantive information: summary text, responsibilities list, qualifications details (basic knowledge, experience, work environment and physical requirements, independent action, supervisory responsibilities), pay range, location, work type, shift, daily hours, driving required.
We must not include EEO statement, etc.
We must not include duplicated lines (there are duplicates like "Provides for safety and comfort of all patients in accordance with prescribed standards." appears twice; we should keep only one instance? The instruction: "Remove duplicated lines". So we need to deduplicate. Also there may be duplicated sentences about safety etc. We'll need to produce a cleaned version.
Let's extract summary:
"SUMMARY: Under the direction of the Manager Medical Imaging and Lead Technologist, performs a variety of technical radiographic procedures; applies prescribed ionizing radiation for radiologic diagnosis. Responsible for designated areas or procedures, as required. All essential functions performed in this position reflect the age specific needs of the adult and geriatric patient and adapt their care to the physical, psychosocial, and cultural needs.

We need to deduplicate duplicate line about safety/comfort (appears twice). Keep one.
Now Minimum Qualifications: BASIC KNOWLEDGE, EXPERIENCE, WORK ENVIRONMENT AND PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS, INDEPENDENT ACTION, SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITIES.
We need to keep all that content.
Let's extract BASIC KNOWLEDGE:

Must hold current ARRT certification.Must hold a current CPR certification from AHA, BLS for Healthcare ProvidersAbility to consistently meet the following job accountabilities: critical thinking, interpersonal skills, team membership, customer focus, initiative, and reliability.Demonstrated knowledge and skills necessary to provide care to patients throughout the life span, with consideration of aging processes, human development stages and cultural patterns in each step of the care process.Completion of the qualification process for the Technologist II position by obtaining two letters of recommendation within the previous three months from technical, supervisory, or medical staff members in Diagnostic Imaging attesting to the technologist’s level of professionalism and technical competence and two criteria from among the following, selected by the technologist:Obtain advanced certification in the technologist’s current radiographic specialty, if available, through the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists or complete an academic degree in a related clinical field, such as an associate degree in Radiologic Technology, or a baccalaureate or graduate degree in a related technical field, or in an administrative field related to healthcare or business, provided this criterion may be met only once for each degree or certification awarded.Take an active advanced teaching role in one of the Schools of Technology, such as teaching didactic courses, presenting lectures of performing the duties of the clinical coordinator, provided the technologist is qualified under the Essentials and Guidelines of an accredited educational program for the Radiographer adopted by the American College of Radiology, American Medical Association, and American Society of Radiologic Technologists.Develop new methods of patient tracking of exams, quality control, testing efficiency, radiation protection or quality assurance.Prepare at least one in-service program to be delivered at least three times in one year.

That's a long block. We'll keep as is, maybe break into
items? The instruction: use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. This is a list of criteria; we could turn each sentence into
- . But we must preserve all substantive information; we can convert to list items. However the block includes many sentences separated by periods. Might be okay to keep as
but better to use
for list. However the block also includes nested lists (two letters of recommendation and two criteria). Might be complex. Safer to keep as preserving original text. The instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. This is a list of requirements/qualifications, so we should use
. But the content is not clearly delineated as bullet points; it's a paragraph with semicolons. We could still split by sentences and make - . Might be acceptable. However risk of altering meaning? We'll keep as
to be safe, but then we violate the rule to use
for any list. The rule is strict: "Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". The qualifications section is a list of requirements. So we should use

We need to be careful not to lose information. Let's parse BASIC KNOWLEDGE into items:
