Veterinary Technician (Licensed/Registered/Certified)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

for each heading only if there is real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, duplicate lines, application instructions, etc. We need to extract content: Summary: "Help animals in need! Our highly skilled technicians play a crucial role in our program, working as a team with Community Medicine veterinarians and assistants to provide essential services to the pets and rescue animals that need us most." Who we are - Community Medicine: description. What you’ll do: description. Where and When You’ll Work: location, schedule. What you’ll get: Compensation, Benefits. Responsibilities: list. Education and Work Experience: requirements. Qualifications: list. Also there is a repeated Education and Work Experience later. We need to map to sections. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (maybe summary + who we are). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (maybe Education and Work Experience). Qualifications (list of qualifications). Skills (maybe from qualifications: animal handling, customer service, computer, lifting, standing, teamwork, etc). Benefits (list).

We need to decide sections: - About the role: could combine summary + who we are + what you’ll do? But "About the role" maybe summary of role. We'll include summary and who we are and what you’ll do as prose under About the role. - Responsibilities: list as

• . - Requirements: maybe Education and Work Experience (must have graduated... surgery/anesthesia preferred). Could also include license requirement? But that is Qualifications. We'll treat Requirements as education/experience. - Qualifications: list of qualifications (license, animal handling, customer service, computer skills, lifting, standing, teamwork, etc). Might also include Fear Free certification, language, etc. - Skills: maybe we can extract skills from qualifications: animal handling, customer service, computer, lifting, standing, teamwork, etc. But we might combine with Qualifications; but we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps we can omit Skills if content overlaps heavily with Qualifications. However we need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have qualifications list; we could treat that as Qualifications section. Skills could be derived but might be redundant. Better to include Skills as a subsection? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Qualifications and Skills into one section called Qualifications (or Requirements). But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can include those that have content. We can omit Skills if we think it's thin; but we have specific skills like animal handling, customer service, computer, lifting, standing, teamwork, etc. That could be a Skills section. However Qualifications also includes license, Fear Free cert, language, etc. So we can split: Qualifications = license, certifications, language, education? Actually education is Requirements. So Qualifications could be license, Fear Free cert, language, etc. Skills = animal handling, customer service, computer, lifting, standing, teamwork, etc. That seems reasonable. Thus: - About the role: summary + who we are + what you’ll do (maybe combine into a few paragraphs). - Responsibilities: list. - Requirements: Education and Work Experience (graduated from accredited vet tech program, surgery/anesthesia experience preferred). - Qualifications: License (NY State Vet Tech License or ability to obtain within 30 days), Fear Free Shelter certification within 60 days, Ability to exemplify ASPCA core values, Language English required, Bilingual Spanish strongly preferred. - Skills: Excellent animal handling (cats, dogs), Excellent customer service, Experience using computer/software, Ability to lift/carry 40+ lbs repeatedly, Ability to work standing 8+ hours, Ability to work independently and as part of a team, Ability to work efficiently and calmly under challenging conditions, Strong interest in animal welfare and serving underserved communities. - Benefits: list. - Pay: compensation details (target hiring range $34.60-$40.00 per hour, $2k signing bonus, $2k retention bonus after one year, relocation assistance). - Schedule: Where and When You’ll Work (location, typical schedule, flexibility, occasional reporting to other locations, schedule subject to change). We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. We must not repeat job title. We must not include application instructions like "Stay Connected – Join Our Talent Community", "About Us", etc. We must preserve all substantive information; we must not invent or summarize away detail. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. We'll need to wrap sections in appropriate tags: each heading

  then content: for prose use

  , for lists use

  • . We need to ensure we don't duplicate content. Let's write About the role: maybe two paragraphs: first summary, second who we are, third what you’ll do. Could combine into multiple

    . Responsibilities: we need to list all items. Could group under headings? Not required; just a flat list. But we could keep subheadings? Not needed. We'll just list all responsibilities as

  • . Might be long but okay. Requirements:

    with two sentences? Actually we have bullet: Must have graduated from accredited school of veterinary science technology (2 or 4 year program) or the equivalent as determined by the New York State Education Department. Surgery/Anesthesia experience preferred. We'll put as

    • maybe? But it's not a list of duties; it's requirements. Could use
      as well. The instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So yes, use
        • for requirements. Qualifications: also list. Skills: list. Benefits: list. Pay: maybe

          with details. Schedule:

          with location and schedule details. Let's extract exact wording to preserve. Summary: "Help animals in need! Our highly skilled technicians play a crucial role in our program, working as a team with Community Medicine veterinarians and assistants to provide essential services
