We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Use for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to parse the posting.
We have:
- About the role: maybe a paragraph summarizing role: "The Shelter Coordinator reports to the Director of Basic Needs Programs. They provide direct supervision to the program Youth Coaches and collaborate with the Program Director to organize and coordinate overall programmatic activities in the St Albans Youth Shelter. This position works in coordination with the Chief Programs Officer, the Chief Clinical Officer, other agency directors, and appropriate staff. This is a full-time nonexempt position with a base wage of $29.33 per hour and shift differentials apply based hours worked. The schedule for this position will have some evening and weekends as well as helping with coverage needs for the program. Possible Schedule: Tuesday – Thursday 12:00 pm – 9:00 pm, Friday – 8:00 am – 5:00 pm, and Saturday 6:00 am – 10:00 am."
We need to separate Pay and Schedule sections if present. Pay: base wage $29.33 per hour, shift differentials apply based hours worked. Schedule: possible schedule details.
We need to include Benefits? Not mentioned. So skip Benefits.
Qualifications? There's "Knowledge and skills Required" which includes many items: commitment to diversity, Bachelor's degree required, Master's preferred, three years experience preferred, etc. That's more like Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. We need to decide which headings to use. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only when posting has real specific content.
We have:
- About the role: we can put the initial description.
- Responsibilities: list of essential functions (the bullet list). We'll use

- Requirements: maybe education and experience requirements: Bachelor's degree required, Master's preferred, three years experience preferred, valid driver's license, etc.
- Qualifications: maybe similar to Requirements? Could combine. But we need to avoid duplication. Perhaps we treat "Knowledge and skills Required" as Skills. Or we could split: Requirements (education/experience), Skills (knowledge/skills/competencies). Qualifications maybe not needed if overlapping.
Better: Use sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Schedule.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting.
Let's extract details:
About the role paragraph: includes reporting line, supervision, collaboration, full-time nonexempt, base wage, shift differentials, schedule mention.
But we will move Pay and Schedule to separate sections, so we should not duplicate wage and schedule in About the role? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we move wage and schedule to separate sections, we must still include them somewhere. We can keep them in About the role but also have separate sections? That would duplicate. Better to keep About the role generic without wage/schedule, then have Pay and Schedule sections with those details. However we must ensure we don't lose any detail: we can mention in About the role that it's full-time nonexempt, reports to Director, etc., but omit wage and schedule specifics, moving them to Pay and Schedule. That's okay as we are not removing detail, just relocating. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; moving is fine as long as it's present somewhere.
Thus About the role: "The Shelter Coordinator reports to the Director of Basic Needs Programs. They provide direct supervision to the program Youth Coaches and collaborate with the Program Director to organize and coordinate overall programmatic activities in the St Albans Youth Shelter. This position works in coordination with the Chief Programs Officer, the Chief Clinical Officer, other agency directors, and appropriate staff. This is a full-time nonexempt position."
Now Responsibilities: list of essential functions. We'll extract each sentence that starts with a verb.
From "Essential Functions" list:

We need to deduplicate duplicate lines (e.g., oversee and facilitate weekly/monthly schedules appears twice). We'll keep one.
Now Requirements: Education and experience: Bachelor's degree required. Master's degree in social work or another related human services field preferred. Three years’ experience in a relevant social service position and/or supervisory experience preferred. Valid driver’s license and access to a reliable transportation mandatory.
Also maybe "Previous experience in providing client-centered, developmentally appropriate services to adolescents, young adults, and their families experiencing complex and varied mental health and substance use concerns." That's more like experience/knowledge.
We could put that under Requirements or Skills. Let's treat Requirements as education/experience/licensure. Skills as knowledge/competencies.
Thus Requirements:
- Bachelor's degree required.
- Master’s degree in social work or another related human services field preferred.
- Three years’ experience in a relevant social service position and/or supervisory experience preferred.
- Valid driver’s license and access to a reliable transportation mandatory.
Maybe also "Previous experience in providing client-centered, developmentally appropriate services to adolescents, young adults, and their families experiencing complex and varied mental health and substance use concerns." Could be under Requirements as experience.
We'll include that as a bullet.
