for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content accordingly.
We must not repeat job title as heading (none given). No Job ID.
We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we need sections: About the role (maybe Business Overview + Candidate Success Factors?), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Minimum Required Qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications?), Skills (maybe tools/knowledge?), Benefits, Pay. Schedule not present, so omit.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have salary range given, so Pay section with that. Benefits section with description.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details like Business Overview text, Candidate Success Factors bullet points? They are paragraphs. We can put them as
. For lists, we need to identify any list: responsibilities list (building, reviewing...), qualifications list (Bachelor’s..., 2+ years..., etc). Preferred qualifications list (CFA..., some experience...). Benefits list (medical, dental..., 401(k)...). We'll wrap those in
- .
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, fraud warnings, etc. Remove those.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's construct:

Skills maybe we can include tools as part of Requirements; but we could also have a Skills section for tools: FactSet, Bloomberg, S&P Capital IQ, Excel.

So we could merge skills into Requirements. But we have a Skills heading possible; but we might not need separate Skills if we already covered.

Thus About the role section will contain Business Overview, Candidate Success Factors, and About BNP Paribas description.
