Let's parse the posting.
Content:

Which includes assisting students in course selection and requirements for special focus areas, setting academic goals, proctoring study experiences, and developing and facilitating workshops that focus on fostering academic skills and executive functioning skills.

- Also mention: Qualified applicants should submit a cover letter, resume, and contact information of three professional references to millikin.edu/employment. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled. Employment and first day of work is contingent upon successful completion of a background check. Millikin University is an equal opportunity employer... (EEO boilerplate) - we need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we must remove the application instructions (cover letter submission, review of applications, background check, EEO statement). Also remove "Qualified applicants should submit..." etc.
- Also mention: Millikin offers a competitive salary and full benefit package, including eligibility for tuition waiver. To view Millikin’s benefits, please go to https://millikin.edu/about/administration/human-resources/benefits.
Thus we have content for Benefits: "competitive salary and full benefit package, including eligibility for tuition waiver." Also a link to view benefits. We can include that as a paragraph.
Pay: Not explicitly stated beyond "competitive salary". The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state "competitive salary". That's a mention of pay, albeit vague. Should we include Pay section? The rule says: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state "competitive salary". That's a statement about pay, albeit not specific numbers. It's still stating something about pay. I'd include a Pay section with that sentence.
Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So omit Schedule.
Skills: Could be derived from qualifications? But we have a Qualifications section already. The rule: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We have sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (essential duties + supervisory), Qualifications (minimum and preferred), Benefits, Pay. Possibly Skills could be merged into Qualifications. We'll not create Skills if not explicit.
We need to use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting, except removed boilerplate.
