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 that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID/req numbers as headings; can fold minor metadata into short

or drop it. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - Intro paragraph: "Are you looking to make an impactful difference..." etc. That's about the company. 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. So we can map content. - PURPOSE OF THE JOB: description of purpose. Could go under "About the role" or maybe "Responsibilities"? Probably "About the role" includes purpose. - Location: remote/field role, candidates ideally reside in or near Dallas, Texas or surrounding metro area or other nearby communities. Could be part of "About the role" or separate? Not a heading we have; maybe include in About the role paragraph. - Essential Duties And Responsibilities: list of duties broken into subcategories: Underwriting & Portfolio Management, Business Development, Production & Distribution, Producer & Relationship Management. These are duties. So we can put under

Responsibilities

with
  • items. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can break into multiple
  • items for each bullet. - Supervisory Responsibilities: "This role does not have supervisory responsibilities." That's a statement; could be included under Responsibilities maybe as a note. But it's not a duty; maybe we can include as a

    under Responsibilities. - Education And Experience: Bachelor's degree... Minimum 1 year... This is qualifications/requirements. So we can put under

    Requirements

    or

    Qualifications

    . The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide which to use. Probably combine education and experience under Requirements. Could also put under Qualifications. Since we have both headings available, we need to avoid thin sections. Maybe combine into one section: Requirements (education & experience). Or we could have Requirements (education) and Qualifications (experience). But better to have one substantive section. - CERTIFICATES, LICENSES, REGISTRATIONS: Current driver’s license required. That's a requirement/qualification. Could be included in Requirements. - Knowledge And Skills: list of abilities. That's Skills section. - Physical Requirements: description about office environment, travel 40%-50%, etc. Could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section? Not in list of headings; we could incorporate into Requirements or maybe a separate "Work Environment" but not allowed headings. Probably include under Requirements or maybe a note under Responsibilities? Better to include under Requirements as "Physical Requirements & Work Environment". - WORK ENVIRONMENT: home office environment, frequent use of computer etc. Could be part of same. - Salary range: "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 section. So we need

    Pay

    with

    containing that info. - Benefits: "WHY JOIN ICW GROUP? Challenging work and the ability to make a difference... We offer a competitive benefits package, with generous medical, dental, and vision plans as well as 401K retirement plans and company match Bonus potential for all positions Paid Time Off Paid holidays throughout the calendar year Want to continue learning? We’ll support you 100%". Also earlier: "We strive to make both our internal and external communities better everyday! Learn more about why you want to be here!" That's fluff. Benefits section: we have medical, dental, vision, 401K, company match, bonus potential, PTO, paid holidays, learning support. So we can put under

    Benefits

    with
    • items. - Also there is EEO statement etc which we must remove. - Job Category, Job Type, Req ID: we should drop or fold minor metadata into short

      or drop. Probably drop. - Also there is "We are currently not offering employment sponsorship for this opportunity" - that's a note; could be included under Requirements maybe as a note. But it's not a major section; we can include as a short

      under Requirements. - Also "This description is a general statement of essential job functions and responsibilities. The position may include other duties as assigned." That's boilerplate; we can drop. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll structure:

      About the role

      ... intro paragraph + purpose + location ...

      Responsibilities

      • Underwriting & Portfolio Management: ... (list sub-bullets? We can combine into one li with semicolons or break into multiple li for each bullet under that subheading. Probably better to have each bullet as separate li, but we need to keep the subheading? Could embed subheading inside li like
      • Underwriting & Portfolio Management: ...
      • . That's acceptable. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can include each bullet as separate li.
