We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to extract content: The posting includes description: "American Traveler is seeking a Respiratory Therapist for a NICU/PEDS position at a Level II Trauma Center with a Level III NICU, requiring an RRT and minimum 2 years of experience." Details: facility description, shift schedule, etc. Requirements: list of certifications, license, degree, experience. Additional Information: includes orientation, holidays, time off request, scrubs, parking, radius rule, traveler-friendly. Benefits: mention American Traveler offers exceptional benefits: premium medical, dental, vision, life insurance day one, generous 401(k) match, substantial housing stipends, more. Also 24/7 support, in-house clinicians. Pay: "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 vague but it's specific enough? It says tax-free stipend amount to be determined. Not a concrete number. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state pay package based on 12 hour shifts and 36 hours per week with tax-free stipend amount to be determined. That's still stating something about pay, albeit not a number. Should we include Pay section? 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 specific enough? It mentions shift length and hours per week. Could be considered pay info. However they also say "subject to confirmation" and "tax-free stipend amount to be determined." Might be considered vague but still states something. The rule: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). Here "tax-free stipend amount to be determined" is like TBD. So maybe we should not include Pay section because it's not concrete. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state something but it's vague. I'd lean to omit Pay section to avoid placeholder. Schedule: posting includes shift details: "Shift: Variable, 3x12hrs", "Hours: 36 hrs/wk", "Shift: 12 hours, flexible", "6/12 hour variable shift schedule at 36 hours per week", "Weekend rotation every other weekend". That's specific schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. Benefits: they list benefits: premium medical, dental, vision, life insurance beginning day one, generous 401(k) match, substantial housing stipends, more, 24/7 support, access to in-house clinicians. That's specific enough. So include Benefits. Now we need sections: About the role (maybe overview), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. About the role: Could be the description paragraph: "American Traveler is seeking a Respiratory Therapist for a NICU/PEDS position at a Level II Trauma Center with a Level III NICU, requiring an RRT and minimum 2 years of experience." plus facility details. That could be About the role. Responsibilities: The duties: "Cares for pediatric critical care, neonatal critical care, and general inpatient respiratory patients", "Utilizes ventilators including ...", "Uses ResMed APAP, CPAP, and Bi-level devices", "Uses Airvo2 high flow devices, Cough Assist, Incourage vest, ABL90 blood gas machines, IPV, and Praxair iNO", "Provide respiratory care to pediatric, neonatal, and general inpatient patient populations", "Supported by Charge RT/Respiratory Clinical Specialist 24/7 along with supervisors, manager, and director", "Expected to work holidays that fall within the contract dates", "May request up to 7 days off if the department can accommodate; a full week off requires extending the contract", "Pewter colored scrubs required", "Free parking available", "100 mile radius rule applies; local candidates within this radius are not accepted", "Facility is known for being traveler-friendly and frequently renews travel contracts". Some of these are more like requirements or details. But we can list responsibilities as bullet points. Requirements: list of certifications, license, degree, experience: "RRT required; CRT may be considered based on experience", "South Dakota RCP License required prior to consideration (license required if applicable)", "BLS, ACLS, and PALS certifications required", "NRP certification required if working in NICU", "AA degree required", "Critical care and general respiratory care experience required", "Minimum 2 years of experience required", "First-time travelers considered upon manager review with strong experience". Qualifications: Might overlap with requirements. Could combine? But we need separate sections only if content. Could put qualifications as education/degree etc. But we have AA degree required. Could put under Qualifications. Skills: maybe specific equipment skills: ventilators, devices, EPIC EMR, Omnicell, etc. Let's structure:

We must not include Pay. Now ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract details. About the role paragraph: combine description and facility details. "American Traveler is seeking a Respiratory Therapist for a NICU/PEDS position at a Level II Trauma Center with a Level III NICU, requiring an RRT and minimum 2 years of experience." plus facility details: "Level II Trauma Center, Level III NICU, Level II Pediatric Trauma, and teaching hospital with 417 beds. Works within the Respiratory Therapy department. Cares for pediatric critical care, neonatal critical care, and general inpatient respiratory patients. 6/12 hour variable shift schedule at 36 hours per week. Weekend rotation every other weekend. On call not typically required except for planned events. Floats throughout the hospital and ED but not to other facilities. EPIC EMR required; Omnicell also used. Utilizes ventilators including Draeger V500, Savina 300, 3100A Oscillator, and Hamilton C1/MRI. Uses ResMed APAP, CPAP, and Bi-level devices. Uses Airvo2 high flow devices, Cough Assist, Incourage vest, ABL90 blood gas machines, IPV, and Praxair iNO." That's a lot; some of that is responsibilities/skills. We'll split. About the role: maybe just the overview: "American Traveler is seeking a Respiratory Therapist for a NICU/PEDS position at a Level II Trauma Center with a Level III NICU, requiring an RRT and minimum 2 years of experience." plus facility basics: Level II Trauma Center, Level III NICU, Level II Pediatric Trauma, teaching hospital with 417 beds. Works within Respiratory Therapy department. Let's craft. Responsibilities bullet list: - Provide respiratory care to pediatric, neonatal, and general inpatient patient populations. - Care for pediatric critical care, neonatal critical care, and general inpatient respiratory patients. - Utilize ventilators including Draeger V500, Savina 300, 3100A Oscillator, and Hamilton C1/MRI. - Use ResMed APAP, CPAP, and Bi-level devices. - Use Airvo2 high flow devices, Cough Assist, Incourage vest, ABL90 blood gas machines, IPV, and Praxair iNO. - Work within the Respiratory Therapy department, floating throughout the hospital and ED (but not to other facilities). - Follow 6/12 hour variable shift schedule (36 hours per week) with weekend rotation every other weekend. - Adhere to facility requirements: pewter colored scrubs required; free parking available. - Observe 100-mile radius rule (local candidates within this radius not accepted). - Work holidays that fall within contract dates; may request up to 7 days off if department can accommodate (full week off requires contract extension). - Participate in orientation provided at facility's Respiratory Care Department. - Receive support from Charge RT/Respiratory Clinical Specialist 24/7, plus supervisors, manager, and director. Requirements bullet list: - Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT) required; CRT may be considered based on experience. - South Dakota RCP License required prior to consideration. - BLS, ACLS, and PALS certifications required. - NRP certification required if working in NICU. - Associate's (AA) degree required. - Minimum 2 years of experience in critical care and general respiratory care. - First-time travelers considered upon manager review with strong experience. Qualifications: maybe we already covered AA degree; but we could list education: AA degree required. Could also mention that degree is required. But we already have AA degree in requirements. To avoid duplication, maybe we put Qualifications as education: AA degree required. But we already have that in requirements. Could combine? The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But we need to follow headings only if content. Could we have only Requirements and Responsibilities, Benefits, Schedule, About the role, Skills? Let's see. Skills bullet list: - Proficiency with EPIC EMR and Omnicell. - Experience with ventilators: Draeger V500, Savina 300, 3100A Oscillator, Hamilton C1/MRI. - Familiarity with ResMed APAP, CPAP, Bi-level devices. - Competence with Airvo2 high flow devices, Cough Assist, Incourage vest, ABL90 blood gas machines, IPV, Praxair iNO. - Ability to float across hospital and ED. Benefits bullet list: - Premium medical, dental, vision, and life insurance effective day one of assignment. - Generous 401(k) match. - Substantial housing stipends. - 24/7 support and access to in-house clinicians. - Additional benefits as offered by American Traveler. Schedule bullet list: - Variable shift pattern: 3×12‑hour shifts per week (36 hours total). - 12‑hour shifts with flexible scheduling. - Weekend rotation every other weekend. - On‑call not typically required except for planned events. Now ensure we didn't miss any substantive info: The posting also mentions "Openings: 1", "Start Date: Sep 21, 2026", "Length: 14 weeks". Those are details about assignment. Should we include them? They are not covered in sections. Could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like Assignment Details. But we don't have a heading for Assignment Details; we could incorporate into About the role or maybe a separate section like Assignment Overview. The instructions allow headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. They didn't list Assignment Overview as allowed heading. So we must fit that info into allowed
