    . Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Keep substantive info. We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Include only if posting has real specific content. Let's parse the posting.

Pay package is based on 12 hour shifts and 36.0 hours per week (subject to confirmation) with tax-free stipend amount to be determined. - Posted job title: Travel Respiratory Therapist - NICU RT - About American Traveler (boilerplate about company) - we should remove as it's boilerplate? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "About American Traveler" might be considered boilerplate but it's describing the company; not necessarily required. It might be considered promotional but not required to keep. Likely we should remove it as it's not substantive job details. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit About American Traveler. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Potential sections: - About the role: Could include description of role, assignment overview, details. Might combine. - Responsibilities: Could list duties: Provide respiratory care, participate in high-risk deliveries, work as part of team, complete orientation modules, etc. - Requirements: list experience, certifications, license, etc. - Qualifications: maybe similar to requirements but we can combine? The instruction says use headings for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to include. We have content for: - About the role: maybe a brief paragraph summarizing the position. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Requirements: list of mandatory requirements. - Qualifications: maybe preferred qualifications (PICU experience preferred, teaching hospital experience preferred, BSN preferred, etc.) - Skills: specific skills (equipment, medication delivery, airway management, ABG interpretation, Epic experience, etc.) - Benefits: The posting mentions American Traveler offers exceptional benefits, but that's boilerplate about company; not specific to this job. There's no explicit benefits listed for this assignment (like housing stipend, travel reimbursement). The "About American Traveler" section mentions benefits but we are to remove boilerplate. So we likely should not include Benefits section because no specific benefits are stated for this job. - Pay: The posting says "Pay package is based on 12 hour shifts and 36.0 hours per week (subject to confirmation) with tax-free stipend amount to be determined." That's some pay info, albeit vague. It mentions tax-free stipend amount to be determined. This is specific enough? It says Pay package is based on 12 hour shifts and 36.0 hours per week (subject to confirmation) with tax-free stipend amount to be determined. That's some pay info. We should include Pay section with that info. - Schedule: The posting includes shift details: Nights, 3x12hrs, 36 hrs/wk, every other weekend, etc. So we can include Schedule section. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Schedule. We must not include empty sections. Now we need to format. Use

    for each section heading. Inside each section, use

    for prose,

    • for lists. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not put Job ID as heading; we can fold into short

      maybe under About the role or Pay. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to ensure we keep all details: start date, duration, hours per week, shift, location (Charlottesville, Virginia), specialty, discipline, etc. Let's extract all substantive details: - Position: Travel Pediatric Respiratory Therapist (or Travel Respiratory Therapist - NICU RT) - Location: Charlottesville, Virginia - Employer: American Traveler (travel agency) - Facility: children's hospital with Level 4 NICU and Pediatric Critical Care unit - Shift: Nights, 3x12-hour shifts (19:00-7:00) - Hours per week: 36 hrs/wk - Start Date: Oct 26, 2026 (or 10/26/2026) - Duration: 26 weeks - Openings: 1 - Assignment details: Every other weekend and every other holiday rotation required, with 2 of 3 winter holidays required; self-scheduling model; floating within scope may be required; Epic experience required for float pool and inpatient units. - Responsibilities: Provide respiratory care to neonatal and pediatric patients in high-acuity Level 4 NICU and Pediatric Critical Care setting; participate in high-risk deliveries and neonatal transports as needed; work as part of specialty pediatric/neonatal respiratory care team; complete specialty-specific orientation modules during onboarding. - Requirements: - Minimum 1 year NICU experience required; Level 4 NICU experience required. - PICU experience preferred, especially Cardiac PICU. - Teaching hospital experience preferred. - Required certifications: RRT, BLS, NRPPALS; ACCS certifications preferred. - VA state license required if applicable; pending license accepted if candidate holds another state license and can obtain VA temporary license before start. - BSN preferred. - Skilled in neonatal/pediatric respiratory equipment: CPAP/BiPAP, oscillating ventilator, high frequency jet ventilator, intubation assistance. - Experience with medication delivery systems and administration: aerosol setups, nebulizers. - Experience caring for patients with ARDS, aspiration, bronchoscopy, cystic fibrosis, pneumonia. - Proficiency in airway management: intubation/extubation assist, tracheostomy care. - Ability to interpret arterial blood gases (ABGs). - Two professional references required for consideration. - Additional info (maybe not needed for sections): - First-time travelers may be considered. - Previous UVA Health employees must have 1-year separation and leadership approval before returning as travelers. - External travelers cannot exceed 365 total assignment days. - No radius restriction. - Maximum of 40 hours RTO allowed per 13-week contract, must be disclosed at time of consideration. - Any pre-start vacation time must be disclosed prior to determining start date. - Job ID #P-753205. - Pay package based on 12 hour shifts and 36.0 hours per week (subject to confirmation) with tax-free stipend amount to be determined. - Posted job title: Travel Respiratory Therapist - NICU RT. We need to include all substantive info. Some of the additional info may be considered requirements or notes; we could incorporate them into Requirements or a separate "Notes" but we only have allowed headings. Could put some under Requirements (like first-time travelers may be considered) but that's not a requirement; it's a note. Could put under About the role or Responsibilities? Might be better to include a short

      under About the role covering logistics like start date, duration, hours, shift, location, openings, etc. Then Responsibilities for duties. Then Requirements for mandatory. Then Qualifications for preferred. Then Skills for specific technical skills. Then Pay for pay info. Then Schedule for schedule details (though schedule overlaps with About the role). But we need to avoid duplication. We need to decide what goes where to avoid repetition but keep all info. Let's design:

      About the role
