Transitional Counselor

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, application instructions, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse description. Content: - Description paragraph about Osborne Association (mission). Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" could be description of role and organization. We'll put that as

About the role

with paragraphs. - Responsibilities: list of duties (Essential Duties). Provide bullet list. - Requirements: maybe "Minimum Qualifications" and "Key Competencies"? Could be separate sections: Requirements (maybe minimum qualifications) and Skills (key competencies). Qualifications maybe also? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which content fits each. We have: - About the role: description of Osborne and role. - Responsibilities: essential duties list. - Requirements: maybe "Minimum Qualifications" (Associate's degree etc) and also "Two years of direct care experience..." etc. - Qualifications: maybe "Key Competencies"? Or could be "Skills". The list includes "Key Competencies" which are skills. So we could put Skills section for those. - Benefits: "Benefits Of Working At Osborne" includes generous benefits list. - Pay: Salary: $27.80 - $28.84 hourly. Also note "Salary is based on commensurate experience and other qualifications." That's vague; we should not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". The instruction: Do NOT emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. So we can include Pay section with the specific hourly range. The extra sentence about commensurate experience is filler; we should omit it. So Pay section will just have the range. - Schedule: The posting mentions "This position will be working hybrid between the office, remotely, and Riker Island". Also "In-person attendance is required to collaborate with co-workers". That's schedule info: hybrid work. So we can include Schedule section with that description. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, VEVRAA, etc. Also remove "Thank you for your interest..." etc. Also remove "No phone calls please." etc. We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all duties, qualifications, competencies, benefits, pay, schedule. Let's extract details.
