Technician I, Histology (2nd shift)
for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have pay rate $20/hr, shift hours Monday-Friday 2:00 p.m.-10:30 p.m. So we can have Pay and Schedule sections.
We have job overview (maybe "About the role") containing description of role. Responsibilities: from job description (list of duties). Requirements: minimum requirements (education, experience, etc). Qualifications maybe same as requirements? Could combine. Skills: maybe communication, computer skills, etc. Benefits: listed benefits. Pay: $20/hr. Schedule: shift hours.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, accommodation contact, etc. Also remove navigation, legal, duplicated lines. Also remove "For 75 years..." maybe that's about company but could be part of About Charles River? It's generic but we can keep as part of About Charles River? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the introductory paragraph about 75 years etc? It's about company overview; could be part of About Charles River. But we have separate About Charles River section later. Might combine.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use headings, - for lists,
for prose.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Avoid that.
Let's extract content:
