Now Skills & Qualifications section: The posting has "Skills & Qualifications". It includes bullet-like sentences. We need to decide whether to put under Skills or Qualifications or both. The instruction: Use headings for sections like Skills, Qualifications. We have content that mixes skills and qualifications. We could split: Qualifications: experience, licenses, certificates. Skills: communication, organization, etc. But we must not create thin sections; better to combine into one section maybe "Qualifications & Skills". However headings list includes Skills and Qualifications separate. We need to include a section only when posting has real specific content for it. We have both types. We could create two sections: Qualifications and Skills. Let's extract.
Qualifications content:

- NYS Sales license preferred, required to receive license within 150 days of hire
- Fair housing certificate required within 60 days of hire

- Working knowledge of Microsoft office and Windows environment necessary.
- Experience with Yardi Voyager, AvidXchange, ClickPay is a plus.

We could put these under Qualifications and Skills respectively.

Pay: "Compensation $29.76-$33.65/hourly"
Schedule: Not mentioned. So we should not create Schedule section.
Also About the role: we have overview paragraph.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll produce:

We should not include Schedule.
Check for any duplicated lines: we have not included boilerplate.
Make sure we preserve all substantive info: we included all responsibilities bullets, qualifications, skills, benefits, pay.
We omitted the "Work with community social workers Assist with leasing, on an as needed basis" line? Actually we included "Work with community social workers" and "Assist with leasing, on an as needed basis" as separate bullets? In responsibilities we had those two lines at end: "Work with community social workers" and "Assist with leasing, on an as needed basis". Need to include them.
Let's add those two as separate - items.
Also we had "If needed, perform all sales and leasing activities by greeting and qualifying prospects, conducting prospect tours, processing applications, and preparing the lease.
