We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Who We Are", "Primary Function", "Principal Duties", "Education And Experience Requirements", "Knowledge, Skill, and Ability Requirements", "Additional Information", "Why Newrez", "Company Benefits", "Newrez NOW", etc. We must use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). However we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to map content to appropriate headings. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions (none). We need to preserve all substantive info. We need to decide sections: Possibly "About the role" (could combine Who We Are and Primary Function?). "Responsibilities" (Principal Duties). "Requirements" (Education And Experience Requirements). "Qualifications" maybe Knowledge, Skill, and Ability Requirements. "Skills" maybe same as Qualifications? But we should avoid thin sections. Prefer few substantive sections. We could have sections: About the role (Who We Are + Primary Function). Responsibilities (Principal Duties). Requirements (Education And Experience Requirements + Knowledge, Skill, and Ability Requirements). Benefits (Company Benefits + Newrez NOW). Possibly also "Why Newrez" could be part of About the role or Benefits? It's about culture; could be included in About the role. We must not create Pay or Schedule sections because not specified. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to extract details from each section. Let's parse content: Who We Are: paragraph about Newrez mission. Primary Function: description of role. Principal Duties: list of duties (many bullet-like sentences). We'll need to turn into

    • items. Education And Experience Requirements: list of requirements. Knowledge, Skill, and Ability Requirements: list. Additional Information: includes statement about description not exhaustive, smartphone requirement, etc. Might be considered boilerplate? It's substantive but maybe we can include under Requirements or Additional Info? It says "All employees are required to have smart phones that meet Company security standards..." That's a requirement. Could be part of Requirements. Why Newrez: paragraph about culture and total rewards. Company Benefits: list of benefits. Newrez NOW: list of CSR program details. Equal Employment Opportunity and CA Privacy etc: boilerplate to remove. We need to avoid duplication: Some sentences repeat? Not obvious. We'll craft sections:

      About the role

      Combine Who We Are and Primary Function and Why Newrez? Might be too much. But we can keep Who We Are as about company, Primary Function as role summary, Why Newrez as culture. Could be separate but risk thin sections. Maybe we keep About the role (Who We Are + Primary Function) and then a separate section "Why work at Newrez" but that's not in allowed headings list; we could use About the role for company overview and responsibilities for duties, Requirements for qualifications, Benefits for perks. Why Newrez could be merged into About the role or Benefits. Let's merge Why Newrez into About the role after Primary Function. Thus About the role: includes Who We Are paragraph, Primary Function paragraph, Why Newrez paragraph. Responsibilities: Principal Duties list. Requirements: Education And Experience Requirements + Knowledge, Skill, and Ability Requirements + Additional Information (smartphone requirement). Could be combined. Benefits: Company Benefits + Newrez NOW. We must not include Pay or Schedule. Now we need to convert lists into

      • . For prose paragraphs, use

        . We must preserve all substantive info: need to include each bullet point. Let's extract bullet points from Principal Duties: - Manage a portfolio of contested cases within the foreclosure litigation inventory as assigned by management. - Support the Contested Foreclosure Specialists and legal firms by appearing in-person and telephonically as a records custodian and fact witness at trials, depositions, mediations, etc. to explain servicing processes under oath as needed. - Travel for appearance in person for trials that do not allow the witness to appear telephonically will be required. - Ability to read, review, and interpret mortgage loan documents for the purpose of appearing as a fact witness on contested litigated foreclosure matters. - Settle cases with minimal supervision within given settlement authority parameters. - Process all requests by assigned attorneys (by e-mail or telephone) for settlement authority, check requests, etc. to bring a suit to resolution. - Coordinate efforts directly with the firms for efficient and effective responses to all requests for discovery to include admissions, interrogatories, and production of documents. - Research pertinent points of law that affect the recovery efforts. - Provide information support to the legal recovery efforts. - Identify and escalate to Supervisor any issues that cause liability or are above authority level. - Identify and escalate to Supervisor and Team Lead any trends that could become problematic in future suits. - Receive and process all correspondence received on accounts placed with assigned attorneys. - Ensure that all actions, discovery, and witness requirements and obligations are tracked through Black Knight (LoanSphere), Finastra Fusion Servicing Director, or other tracking database. - Work with management and other team members to ensure all appearances are covered as needed. - Assist on any special projects assigned by management. - Accept special tasks as necessary and assume responsibility for successfully achieving objectives. - Performs additional projects and duties as assigned by management. - These essential functions are fundamental to the role, and must be performed on-site, as they cannot physically be performed remotely.

Some sentences are not bullet style but we can still put each as

      • . The last paragraph about on-site could be a separate

        maybe but we can include as
