We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. The posting includes a description about Bank of America culture etc. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections apply. We have: - Intro paragraph about Bank of America purpose, culture, etc. This could be "About the role" (though it's more about company). We'll put as

About the role

with

containing that description. - Then "Job Description: As an Advisory Growth Specialist..." This is more description of role. Could be part of About the role as well. We'll combine. - Then bullet list of responsibilities after "Responsibilities:" heading. So we need

Responsibilities

with
  • items. - Then "Required Qualifications:" list. That's qualifications. Could be

    Qualifications

    (or Requirements?). The instruction includes Requirements and Qualifications as separate headings. We have Required Qualifications and Desired Qualifications. Could split: Required Qualifications under Requirements, Desired Qualifications under Qualifications? Or we could combine both under Qualifications. But we need to follow instruction: use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have no explicit Skills list, but we could extract skills from qualifications (communication, presentation, CRM, etc.) maybe put under Skills. However we should not invent sections if no specific content. The posting does have skills mentioned: Strong communication and presentation skills, ability to hold a room, handle pushback, manage competing priorities, comfort using CRM, willingness to travel, Series licenses. Those could be considered Skills. But we also have Required Qualifications (experience, etc.) and Desired Qualifications (track record, strategic thinking, etc.). We could map: - Requirements: maybe the mandatory requirements (7+ years experience, Series licenses, etc.)? Or we could put Required Qualifications under Requirements. - Qualifications: Desired Qualifications. - Skills: maybe the communication, presentation, CRM, etc. But those are also in Required Qualifications. Might be redundant. Better to follow typical pattern: Use Requirements for mandatory qualifications, Qualifications for desired/preferred, Skills for specific abilities. But we need to avoid filler sections. Let's see if we have enough content for each. We have: - About the role: company overview + role summary. - Responsibilities: list. - Requirements: 7+ years experience, 3+ years with advisors, experience supporting/distributing/selling investment products, working knowledge of professionally managed investment products, strong communication/presentation skills, ability to manage competing priorities, comfort using CRM, willingness to travel, Series 7 and 63/65 or 66 or ability to obtain within 120 days. - Qualifications (Desired): track record building trusted relationships, strategic thinking, consultative sales instincts, comfort holding experienced professionals accountable, genuine interest in investments, practical grasp of advisory solutions, presence in front of clients, fluency with data/pipeline tools, self-direction to run territory. - Skills: maybe we could extract specific skills like communication, presentation, CRM, data tools (Tableau, Copilot, Salesforce), etc. But those are already in Requirements/Qualifications. Might be redundant but we could still include a Skills section summarizing those abilities. However instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But we have separate headings allowed. Could we put Required Qualifications under Requirements and Desired Qualifications under Qualifications? That seems reasonable. We have no explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule info besides Shift: 1st shift, Hours Per Week: 40. That's schedule info. So we can create a Schedule section with that. No benefits or pay mentioned. So we omit Benefits and Pay. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Schedule. Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use

    for each heading. Use
    • for lists. Use

      for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings (none present). Remove boilerplate etc. The posting includes some generic fluff but we keep all substantive info. Let's extract the About the role content: The first paragraph(s) before "Job Description: As an Advisory Growth Specialist". It includes: "At Bank of America, we are guided by a common purpose to help make financial lives better through the power of every connection. We do this by driving Responsible Growth and delivering for our clients, teammates, communities and shareholders every day. Being a Great Place to Work and providing a culture of caring is core to how we drive Responsible Growth. We are intentional about fostering an inclusive workplace where every teammate has the opportunity to succeed, build a career and contribute to our shared success. This includes attracting and developing exceptional talent, recognizing and rewarding performance, and supporting our teammates’ physical, emotional, and financial wellness through affordable, competitive and flexible benefits. We value the unique perspectives individuals bring from all backgrounds and career paths - whether shaped by military service, community college education, or a wide range of work and life experiences. These journeys foster resilience, leadership and innovation, strengthening our workforce and positively impact the communities we serve. Bank of America is committed to an in-office culture that supports collaboration, engagement, and career development. Our approach includes clear in-office expectations, while providing an appropriate level of flexibility based on role-specific responsibilities and business needs. At Bank of America, you can build a successful career with opportunities to learn, grow, and make an impact. Join us!" Then "Job Description: As an Advisory Growth Specialist, you own your territory and you own the growth of their investment advisory assets. You will partner with Financial Advisors and Market Executives, identify growth opportunities, create an action plan, and revisit performance monthly to drive results. Some days that means coaching an advisor on positioning advisory relationships using investment insights. Other days it means sitting across from their client and explaining why an advisory relationship is the right answer and walking through investment recommendations. You will help advisors: Win new assets and uncover new client opportunities.Transition appropriate brokerage assets into advisory relationships.Deepen relationships and grow wallet share with existing clients.Convert more prospects and build stronger centers of influence.Build repeatable growth strategies that outlast any single campaign. Credibility is the currency here. You earn it by understanding how advisors run their practices, bringing a point of view worth their time, and following through on what you said you would do. Nobody hands you a calendar. You build it. This role carries real visibility. You will work directly with market leadership, influence how a strategic priority gets executed on the ground, and see your results in the numbers." We can combine that into About the role paragraph(s). Ensure we keep all details. Now Responsibilities list: after "Responsibilities:" we have bullet points starting with "You are the catalyst for advisory growth in your market. Working alongside a specialist team in your dedicated territory, you will:" then each bullet begins with a verb. Let's capture each bullet: - Partner with Market Executives and Financial Advisors to drive advisory growth through brokerage-to-advisory conversions, new asset acquisition, referrals, retention, and wallet share expansion. - Lead opportunity reviews and pipeline discussions. Identify priorities, clear obstacles, create accountability, and help advisors turn plans into results. - Coach advisors on business development and advisory positioning, informed by guidance from our Chief Investment Office on portfolio construction, manager selection, and asset allocation. - Sit in client and prospect meetings, help advisors articulate the value of an advisory relationship, bring solution expertise into the room, and help close. - Support recruiting, onboarding, private briefings, and client events by showcasing Merrill’s capabilities and pulling in the right specialists at the right time. - Track and communicate results using data and insight to sharpen where you spend your time. We need to keep the introductory sentence "You are the catalyst for advisory growth in your market. Working alongside a specialist team in your dedicated territory, you will:" as part of the responsibilities section maybe as a

      before the list. Or we could incorporate it as first

    • but better to keep as prose. Now Required Qualifications list: after "Required Qualifications:" we have: - 7+ years of financial services experience, including 3 or more years working with Financial Advisors or in investment management. We will consider equivalent experience that demonstrates the same capability. - Experience supporting, distributing, or selling investment products, advisory solutions, or related financial services offerings. - Working knowledge of professionally managed investment products or the investment advisory business. - Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to hold a room and handle pushback in the moment. - Demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities and deliver in a fast-moving environment. - Comfort using CRM systems, sales tools, and reporting platforms to manage activity and measure results. - Willingness to travel regularly within your assigned territory. - Series 7 and 63/65 or 66, or the ability to obtain them within 120 days of your start date. We should keep each as
    • . Now Desired Qualifications list: after "Desired Qualifications:" we have: - We are looking for a combination of sales ability, advisor credibility, investment knowledge, and execution discipline. Strong candidates tend to bring: - A track record of building trusted relationships with Financial Advisors, business owners, sales professionals, or other demanding stakeholders. - Strategic thinking and the ability to partner with senior leaders on market and sales strategy. - Consultative sales instincts, including the confidence to name an opportunity and ask for the business. - Comfort holding experienced professionals accountable to what they committed to, without becoming someone they avoid. - Genuine interest in investments and a practical grasp of advisory solutions, portfolio construction, and fiduciary business models. - Presence in front of clients, including the judgment to know when to lead a conversation and when to let the advisor own it. - Fluency with data and pipeline tools such as Tableau, Copilot, or Salesforce to decide where your time goes. - The self-direction to run a territory independently while staying tightly connected to market leadership and internal partners. We need to keep the introductory sentence "We are looking for a combination of sales ability, advisor credibility, investment knowledge, and execution discipline. Strong candidates tend to bring:" as prose before list. Now Shift info: "Shift: 1st shift (United States of America) Hours Per Week: 40". We'll put in Schedule section as

      Shift: 1st shift (United States of America). Hours per week: 40.

      Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like EEO etc. There's none. Now produce HTML:
