Schedule section: We have start date, duration, hours, shift. Could be separate but we already included in About the role. However we need to avoid duplication. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could merge schedule into About the role. But we already have schedule details there. If we create a separate Schedule section, we would duplicate. Better to keep schedule details only in About the role and not create separate Schedule section. Since we already included schedule in About the role, we should not create Schedule section (to avoid duplication). The rule: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. We have schedule content already in About the role; we could still create a Schedule section but would duplicate content. Better to not create Schedule section to avoid duplication. Thus final sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Check we didn't miss any substantive info: The summary paragraph about role description: "The Med Surg/Tele Registered Nurse delivers comprehensive high-quality, patient-centered care..." That's substantive; we could include that in About the role or Responsibilities. It's more of a summary; we could add to About the role as a paragraph. Let's add after the first paragraph: "The Med Surg/Tele Registered Nurse delivers comprehensive high-quality, patient-centered care in medical-surgical and telemetry units. This role involves assessing patient health conditions, monitoring cardiac telemetry data, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to manage diverse patient needs. The position requires strong clinical skills in med-surg and telemetry nursing, critical thinking abilities, excellent communication, and a commitment to maintaining the highest standards of patient safety and professional ethics." We'll add as a. Now ensure we didn't include boilerplate like "Other Duties Disclaimer", "Why Choose Fusion?" (we used some parts for benefits). We used "Why Choose Fusion?" for benefits
