Treatment Advocate (FT 7p-7a)
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Remove boilerplate. We need to extract content from the posting.
Let's parse the posting:

Exceptional comp and strong benefits include 401K, medical, dental, vision and life insurance. Looking for future leaders, exceed expectations.

Duties and Responsibilities: long list of bullet-like sentences.
Education/Experience: high school diploma or GED required; Associates or Bachelor’s Degree preferred in Behavioral Sciences; Valid Driver’s License required with insurable driving record; Working knowledge of vehicle safety and control systems; Minimum of 1 year experience in a behavioral healthcare field preferred; Knowledge of utilizing electronic health record software and documentation preferred; Ability to read, write and interpret written information, type documentation, present information to groups and participate in meetings; Working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel, and Outlook; Must be able to work overtime, weekends, holidays, and flexible hours.
Physical Requirements: includes equal opportunity statement then list of abilities: ability to sit, use hands and fingers, talk or hear, and smell continually; ability to stand, walk and reach frequently; ability to climb or balance, stoop, kneel, or crouch occasionally; ability to frequently lift and carry up to 10 lbs. and occasionally lift and carry up to 25 lbs.; Close vision required to see computer monitor, read documents, and operate copy and fax machine; Distance vision required to drive an automobile, if driving is a requirement of the job; Work environment is indoors and climate controlled. Occasionally exposed to outdoor weather conditions. Moderate noise levels as found in a business office with computer printers, households with TVs and dishwashers, and driving light traffic.
Then EEO boilerplate.
We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should drop the EEO statements and the equal opportunity lines. Also drop the "Physical Requirements" heading? It is not one of the allowed headings list; but we could incorporate physical requirements into Requirements or Qualifications? The allowed headings are: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content accordingly.
We have:
- About the role: could be Company Summary + Job Summary? Possibly "About the role" includes overview of company and role. We'll include company summary and job summary as prose under About the role.
- Responsibilities: the Duties and Responsibilities list.
- Requirements: maybe Education/Experience (education, experience, driver's license, etc.) plus maybe physical requirements? But physical requirements could be under Requirements as well.
- Qualifications: maybe preferred qualifications (Associates/Bachelor's preferred, etc.) but we can combine with Requirements. However we need to avoid thin sections. We could have Requirements covering education, experience, driver's license, knowledge, etc. Qualifications could be preferred qualifications (like degree preferred, experience preferred, knowledge of EHR, Microsoft Office). Skills could be specific skills: ability to read/write, type documentation, present info, use MS Office, etc. Benefits: we have benefits listed in company summary: 401K, medical, dental, vision, life insurance. Also maybe "exceptional comp and strong benefits". So we can include Benefits section.
- Pay: not specified; we should not include Pay section if not stated.
- Schedule: not specified; we should not include Schedule section if not stated.
Thus we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits.
We must ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting, but we can format them as lists or paragraphs.
We must not repeat job title. Not include Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO statements, equal opportunity lines, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
Let's extract content precisely.
Company Summary paragraph:

We can combine these into About the role prose.
Now Duties and Responsibilities list: It's a paragraph with many sentences separated by periods. We need to turn into

Skills (maybe overlapping): but we could treat the ability to read/write etc as Skills. However we already placed ability to read/write etc under Requirements. Could also put under Skills. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's think: The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have separate lists for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide what goes where.
We have many items that are both requirements and skills. Perhaps we can put:
- Requirements: education, driver's license, vehicle knowledge, ability to work overtime etc.
- Qualifications: preferred degree, preferred experience, preferred EHR knowledge.
- Skills: ability to read/write/interpret, type documentation, present info, participate in meetings, working knowledge of MS Office.

Let's list all items from Education/Experience:
1. High school diploma or GED required from an accredited institution
2. Associates or Bachelor’s Degree preferred in Behavioral Sciences (social sciences, human services, counseling or psychology)

Now we need to map to sections.

We must not repeat job title. Not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: EEO statements, equal opportunity lines, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Let's extract content precisely.
