We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content. We need to parse the job posting. First, there is introductory fluff: "Are you looking to make an impactful difference..." etc. That's basically about the company, maybe "About the role" or "About the company". The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. We need to preserve all substantive information; remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to include sections only when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. We need to prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Thus we need to decide which sections to include. Let's extract content: - Purpose of the job: "The purpose of this role is to develop and manage a profitable book of business within assigned line(s) of business, while building and maintaining strong agency relationships and driving production results. Business Development Underwriters are assigned primary underwriting responsibility for specific line(s) of business (e.g., Workers’ Compensation or Commercial Package and its component coverages). In addition, this role supports broader Commercial Lines growth by identifying cross-sell opportunities and actively marketing all Company products in coordination with other underwriting partners. This role exists to ensure the Company achieves its underwriting profitability and distribution objectives through disciplined risk selection, pricing, and agency engagement." That's a description; could go under "About the role" or "Purpose". The instruction says we can use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, etc. So we could put purpose under "About the role". Or we could have a separate "Purpose" but not in list; but we can map to "About the role". We'll include About the role. - Location: "Location: This is a remote/field role. Candidates ideally will reside in or near Dallas, Texas or the surrounding metro area or other nearby communities." That's location info; could be part of About the role or separate "Location" but not in allowed headings. Could fold into About the role paragraph. - Essential Duties And Responsibilities: includes Underwriting & Portfolio Management, Business Development, Production & Distribution, Producer & Relationship Management. That's responsibilities. So we can have a Responsibilities section with

  • items. - Supervisory Responsibilities: "This role does not have supervisory responsibilities." That's a statement; could be part of Responsibilities or maybe a note. We'll include maybe as a bullet. - Education And Experience: "Bachelor's degree from four-year college or university with a major or emphasis in Business, Accounting, Statistics, or related field or equivalent combination of education and experience. Minimum 1 year of related experience and/or training required." That's qualifications/requirements. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. - CERTIFICATES, LICENSES, REGISTRATIONS: "Current driver’s license required." That's a requirement. - Knowledge And Skills: list of abilities. That's Skills. - Physical Requirements: description about office environment, travel 40%-50%, etc. Could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section but not in allowed headings; we could include under Requirements or maybe under "About the role". But we have limited headings; we can include under Requirements as bullet. - Work Environment: "This position operates in a home office environment and requires the frequent use of a computer, telephone, copier and other standard office equipment. This description is a general statement of essential job functions and responsibilities. The position may include other duties as assigned." Could be part of Responsibilities or About the role. - We are currently not offering employment sponsorship for this opportunity: that's a note; could be under Requirements or maybe a short p. - The current range for this position is $90,559.93 - $152,723.07 This range is exclusive of fringe benefits and potential bonuses. If hired at ICW Group, your final base salary compensation will be determined by factors unique to each candidate, including experience, education and the location of the role and considers employees performing substantially similar work. That's Pay info; we should include a Pay section. - WHY JOIN ICW GROUP? list of benefits: "Challenging work and the ability to make a differenceYou will have a voice and feel a sense of belongingWe offer a competitive benefits package, with generous medical, dental, and vision plans as well as 401K retirement plans and company matchBonus potential for all positionsPaid Time OffPaid holidays throughout the calendar yearWant to continue learning? We’ll support you 100%". That's Benefits. - Also there is EEO statement etc which we need to remove. - Job Category: Underwriting Job Type: Full time Req ID: JR101678: we can fold into a short p maybe. Thus sections we will include: - About the role (purpose + location maybe) - Responsibilities (duties) - Requirements (education, experience, certificates, physical requirements) - Skills (knowledge and skills) - Benefits (why join) - Pay (salary range) Schedule: not mentioned explicitly; there is travel percentage but not schedule like full-time/part-time; we have Job Type: Full time but that's not schedule? Could be considered schedule but we have no explicit schedule like "Monday-Friday, 9-5". The instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Schedule not stated; we have Job Type: Full time but that's employment type, not schedule. Safer to omit Schedule. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll produce something like:
