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. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the job description. Content: - Opening: "Are you passionate about fashion, styling, and helping people look and feel their best? Do you have the hustle of a Bostonian, the charm of the Cape, and the grit of a New England winter? We're looking for a Salesperson who can bring that signature Massachusetts energy to our team—someone who can build wicked strong customer relationships both in-store and online, and who knows how to make every shopper feel like a regular at their favorite neighborhood spot." That's like an About the role / overview. - "A day in the life…" then bullet list (actually sentences). Let's extract responsibilities: - Set and achieve sales goals, for both in-store and digital selling with effective use of selling tools (inclusive of text and social media) - Build lasting relationships with customers - Give the best service to our customers on their terms—wicked friendly, honest, and always helpful - Provide honest and confident feedback to customers about style and fit - Seek fashion and product knowledge to build your expertise—like a true local who knows where to get the best lobster roll and the best denim. - Work with the team to keep the department customer ready, which means filling orders, stocking, re-merchandising, price markdowns, and light cleaning - Grow relationships by opening new Nordstrom Rewards program accounts - Then: "The hours and schedule for this position will vary by week depending on business needs" (Schedule info) - "This role may require you to be flexible to occasionally performing work/duties in a department other than the one you were hired into" (maybe part of schedule or responsibilities) - "You own this if you have…" then list of qualifications/skills: - Excellent communication and people skills - A self-motivated, goal-oriented focus—we love a good work ethic—just like our hometown team loves a comeback - Strong interest to use networking and technology to achieve sales goals - The ability to excel in a team environment - The ability to prioritize multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment - Organization and follow-through—like mapping out a day trip to the Berkshires—ya gotta have a plan! - The ability to work a flexible schedule based on business needs - Physical Requirements: bullet list: - Continuous movement for 6-8 hours per shift, which includes frequent bending, twisting, squatting, flexing and reaching in order to handle merchandise and assist customers. - Frequent use of hands for grasping, fine manipulation, pushing and pulling - Handle bulky and sometimes awkwardly shaped items, which includes reaching for and lifting these items above the head. - Regularly lift items weighing up to 10 pounds and occasionally up to 25 pounds - "Why Nordstrom?" then bullet list: - Career Growth – We promote from within and offer development opportunities at every level. - Team Culture – Join a supportive, inclusive team that values collaboration and celebrates success. - Local Pride – Be part of a company that values community—whether you're from Boston, the South Shore, or anywhere in between - "Pay Range Details" then paragraph about pay range compliance, then "$15.25 - $15.25 Hourly". Then paragraph about commission: "At Nordstrom, the commission most selling employees receive varies based on the merchandise they sell. Apparel, shoes, and accessories sales typically range from 3% to 14.5%. The commission Beauty and Men’s Fragrance sales roles typically receive is 3%." - Benefits: "We’ve got you covered… Benefits Our employees are our most important asset and that’s reflected in our benefits. Nordstrom is proud to offer a variety of benefits to support employees and their families, including: Medical/Vision, Dental, Retirement and Paid Time AwayLife Insurance and DisabilityMerchandise Discount and EAP Resources This position may be eligible for performance-based incentives/bonuses. Benefits include 401k, medical/vision/dental/life/disability insurance options, PTO accruals, Holidays, and more. Eligibility requirements may apply based on location, job level, classification, and length of employment. Learn more in the Nordstrom Benefits Overview by copying and pasting the following URL into your browser: https://careers.nordstrom.com/pdfs/Ben_Overview_07-14_Variable_ES-US.pdf" - Then "A few more important points..." includes legal notices, etc. We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should drop that section entirely (legal notices, background check, etc). Also drop "Current Nordstrom employees: To apply..." etc. Also drop the copyright line. Thus we keep: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (the day in the life list), Requirements/Qualifications/Skills (the "You own this if you have…" list), Physical Requirements (maybe as part of Requirements or separate), Benefits, Pay, Schedule (hours vary). Also maybe "Why Nordstrom?" could be considered Benefits or Culture; but we already have Benefits section; "Why Nordstrom?" includes Career Growth, Team Culture, Local Pride. Could be part of Benefits or a separate section like "About the Company". But the instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can map: - About the role: intro paragraph. - Responsibilities: day in the life list. - Requirements: maybe combine "You own this if you have…" and Physical Requirements? Could separate Requirements (skills) and Qualifications (maybe physical). But we can just have Requirements (skills) and maybe Physical Requirements as part of Requirements or separate. Since we have headings for Requirements and Qualifications, we could put skills under Requirements, and physical under Qualifications? Or we could combine. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we combine skills and physical into one Requirements section. But we have to use headings exactly as given? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't say we must use all; we can choose which to include. So we can include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's enough. Thus:

About the role

Are you passionate about fashion, styling, and helping people look and feel their best? Do you have the hustle of a Bostonian, the charm of the Cape, and the grit of a New England winter? We're looking for a Salesperson who can bring that signature Massachusetts energy to our team—someone who can build wicked strong customer relationships both in-store and online, and who knows how to make every shopper feel like a regular at their favorite neighborhood spot.

Responsibilities

  • Set and achieve sales goals, for both in-store and digital selling with effective use of selling tools (inclusive of text and social media)
  • Build lasting relationships with customers
  • Give the best service to our customers on their terms—wicked friendly, honest, and always helpful
  • Provide honest and confident feedback to customers about style and fit
  • Seek fashion and product knowledge to build your expertise—like a true local who knows where to get the best lobster roll and the best denim.
  • Work with the team to keep the department customer ready, which means filling orders, stocking, re-merchandising, price markdowns, and light cleaning
  • Grow relationships by opening new Nordstrom Rewards program accounts

Requirements

  • Excellent communication and people skills
  • A self-motivated, goal-oriented focus—we love a good work ethic—just like our hometown team loves a comeback
  • Strong interest to use networking and technology to achieve sales goals
  • The ability to excel in a team environment
  • The ability to prioritize multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment
  • Organization and follow-through—like mapping out a day trip to the Berkshires—ya gotta have a plan!
  • The ability to work a flexible schedule based on business needs
  • Physical Requirements: Continuous movement for 6-8 hours per shift, which includes frequent bending, twisting, squatting, flexing and reaching in order to handle merchandise and assist customers.
  • Frequent use of hands for grasping, fine manipulation, pushing and pulling
  • Handle bulky and sometimes awkwardly shaped items, which includes reaching for and lifting these items above the head.
  • Regularly lift items weighing up to 10 pounds and occasionally up to 25 pounds
But we might want to separate physical requirements as its own list; but it's okay inside Requirements. Now Benefits: We need to capture benefits: "Medical/Vision, Dental, Retirement and Paid Time AwayLife Insurance and DisabilityMerchandise Discount and EAP Resources This position may be eligible for performance-based incentives/bonuses. Benefits include 401k, medical/vision/dental/life/disability insurance options, PTO accruals, Holidays, and more." We should format as list. Thus:

Benefits

  • Medical/Vision
  • Dental
  • Retirement
  • Paid Time Away
  • Life Insurance
  • Disability
  • Merchandise Discount
  • EAP Resources
  • Performance-based incentives/bonuses (eligible)
  • 401k
  • Medical/vision/dental/life/disability insurance options
  • PTO accruals
  • Holidays
But note duplication: Medical/Vision appears twice; we can combine but it's okay. However we should avoid duplication? The instruction: remove duplicated lines. So we should not duplicate same benefit. Let's consolidate unique benefits: - Medical/Vision - Dental - Retirement - Paid Time Away - Life Insurance - Disability - Merchandise Discount - EAP Resources - Performance-based incentives/bonuses - 401k - PTO accruals - Holidays But note "Medical/vision/dental/life/disability insurance options" is basically same as above; we can skip. Thus list unique. Now Pay: We have "$15.25 - $15.25 Hourly" and commission info. Thus:

Pay

$15.25 - $15.25 Hourly

At Nordstrom, the commission most selling employees receive varies based on the merchandise they sell. Apparel, shoes, and accessories sales typically range from 3% to 14.5%. The commission Beauty and Men’s Fragrance sales roles typically receive is 3%.

But note the instruction: 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. Here we have actual pay range and commission details, so okay. Schedule: We have "The hours and schedule for
