We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title. We must include only sections with real content. We need to parse the posting. First part: "Why USAA?" includes mission statement etc. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About USAA". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can map content accordingly. We have: - Intro: "Why USAA? At USAA, our mission is to empower our members..." This is about the company, could be "About the role" (or maybe "About USAA"). We'll put under

About the role

with paragraphs. - Then "The Opportunity We are seeking a dedicated Claims Litigation Manager – Auto. In this individual contributor role, you would be responsible for managing moderately complex litigation..." This is responsibilities. So

Responsibilities

with bullet list. - Then "What You'll Do" list of duties (bulleted). That's also responsibilities; we can combine with previous responsibilities or separate? Probably combine into one Responsibilities section. - Then "What You Have" includes qualifications: Bachelor's degree; OR 4 years related experience; 4 years work experience handling liability and first party claims; 2 years customer contact experience; Claims adjusters license; Demonstrated negotiation and customer service skills; Excellent communication skills; Knowledge of P&C policies state laws; Knowledge of regulatory compliance; Experience handling large losses; Knowledge of Microsoft Office tools.

. We'll choose Requirements. - Then "What Sets You Apart": 5+ years experience handling casualty liability claims; 2+ years direct handling of Auto Bodily Injury and Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Litigation; Familiarity with injury claims litigation processes; Experience working injury claims in CA, WA, NV, AZ; Continuing Education to include any relevant insurance designations. That's "Skills" or "Preferred Qualifications". We'll put under

Skills

. - Then "Compensation range: The salary range for this position is: $85,040 - $162,550." Also later "Compensation: USAA has an effective process..." So we have pay info. So

Pay

with paragraph(s). Should we include note about location variation etc. Yes. - Then "Benefits: At USAA our employees enjoy best-in-class benefits..." That's benefits. So

Benefits

with paragraph. - Schedule: "This hybrid role requires an individual to be in the office 3 days per week." Also location info: "This position can be based in one of the following locations: San Antonio, TX, Plano, TX, Phoenix, AZ or Colorado Springs, CO. Relocation assistance is not available for this position." That's schedule/location. Could be under

Schedule

with paragraph about hybrid 3 days/week and location. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, visa sponsorship, background check etc? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should drop lines about Licensed positions require a background check, visa sponsorship, etc. Also drop "Applications for this position are accepted on an ongoing basis..." etc. Also drop "USAA is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." etc. Also drop "The above description reflects the details considered necessary..." maybe not boilerplate but it's generic; but it's not a heading; we could keep as part of responsibilities? It's a generic statement; but it's not specific detail; maybe we can drop as it's not substantive. Safer to drop. Also drop "Compensation range: The salary range for this position is: $85,040 - $162,550." That's substantive, keep. Also drop "Licensed positions require a background check..." etc. Also drop "Please do not apply for this role if at any time (now or in the future) you will need immigration support..." etc. Also drop "USAA does not provide visa sponsorship for this role." Also drop "Compensation: USAA has an effective process..." maybe keep as part of Pay section? It's about compensation process; could be included. We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the specifics: salary range, location list, hybrid 3 days/week, relocation assistance not available, benefits list (medical, dental, vision, 401(k), pension, life insurance, parental benefits, adoption assistance, paid time off program with paid holidays plus 16 paid volunteer hours, various wellness programs, career path planning, continuing education). Also note about "For more details on our outstanding benefits, visit our benefits page on USAAjobs.com." That's a link; maybe we can keep as sentence but it's a reference; could keep. We must not include application instructions like "Applications for this position are accepted on an ongoing basis..." etc. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's craft. Structure:

But we need to remove boilerplate like visa sponsorship, background check, immigration support? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The visa sponsorship and background check might be considered legal boilerplate? It's about licensing and background check; not sure if considered boilerplate.
