We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invented or summarized away detail. Remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, etc. Must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We need to parse the posting. Let's extract sections: - Who we are: description about company and role. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role (or About the company). The posting includes "Who we are: Visual Comfort & Co. is the world's premier resource..." then description of role. So we can put that under About the role. - Responsibilities: The sections "How success is defined:" with bullet points under Sales And Client Experience, Product Knowledge & Design Support, Customer Experience Center Operations. Those are responsibilities. - Requirements: "What you will bring:" list of experience, skills, etc. Could be Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe Bachelor's degree preferred, etc. Could be Qualifications. - Skills: maybe specific skills like Microsoft Office, CRM/CRM, lighting technology, etc. - Benefits: "Visual Comfort Offers:" includes Work-Life Balance, Training & Development, Paid Time Off, Holidays, Compensation (but compensation separate), Health Benefits, Insurance, Retirement. - Pay: "Compensation Range: $24 - $30 per hour" plus note about based on factors. - Schedule: "Work-Life Balance: Monday - Friday, 7:30am – 4:00pm or 9:00am - 5:30pm" is schedule. We must not create sections with filler. Ensure we include all substantive info. We must not include EEO statement, immigration sponsorship, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We must not include "Qualified applicants are considered for employment..." etc. That's EEO boilerplate; remove. Also remove "To be eligible for this role, you must be authorized to work in the United States..." etc. That's also legal; remove. Now craft HTML. Structure:

About the role

... (combined who we are and role description)

Responsibilities

  • ... each bullet from the three subsections.
We need to preserve all substantive info; not summarize away detail. So we need to list each bullet point as separate
  • . Let's extract bullet points. From "How success is defined:": - Sales And Client Experience: * Deliver a white-glove experience to every client—whether a trade professional or homeowner—that reflects the Visual Comfort brand's commitment to luxury and excellence * Build and nurture lasting relationships with architects, interior designers, builders, and consumers through genuine, design-driven engagement * Achieve and exceed individual and team sales goals using a consultative, client-first approach that puts design at the center of every conversation * Guide clients through our extensive portfolio with expert product knowledge, genuine enthusiasm, and an instinct for beautiful spaces * Manage the full client journey—from initial inquiry through order completion—ensuring a seamless, elevated experience at every touchpoint - Product Knowledge & Design Support: * Develop deep expertise in the Visual Comfort portfolio—from iconic designer collaborations to architectural-grade solutions—and translate that knowledge into inspired client recommendations * Assist clients with product selection, specification, and documentation in support of residential and commercial projects * Respond to client inquiries with thorough, accurate guidance on proposed lighting solutions—turning technical specs into compelling design stories * Stay current on the latest advancements in luxury lighting, smart controls, and automated shading technology to position yourself—and our clients—at the forefront of design - Customer Experience Center Operations: * Ensure the Customer Experience Center consistently reflects brand standards—immaculately presented, thoughtfully organized, and always ready to inspire * Develop proficiency in the company's order entry and client management systems, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in every transaction Now "What you will bring:" list: - 2+ years of experience in a client-facing role in luxury retail, lighting, interior design, home furnishings, or a related field—a true love of the category matters most - Sales-driven mindset with a proven ability to build relationships, meet goals, and elevate every client interaction - Genuine passion for design, lighting, and delivering exceptional experiences that clients remember and return for - Strong visual and aesthetic sensibility—you notice light, appreciate craft, and understand why the right fixture changes everything - Bachelor's degree preferred - Proficient with Microsoft Office Suite; experience with CRM/ERP systems (D365 or JDE a plus) - Warm, polished communicator—effective by phone, email, and in person - Organized and detail-oriented, able to manage multiple client relationships simultaneously - Familiarity with lighting technology (color temperature, CRI, lumens, dimming, control systems such as Lutron or Controls) a plus—genuine curiosity and eagerness to learn is what matters most - Ability to represent the Visual Comfort brand with professionalism and pride at client meetings and industry events - Collaborative team player who contributes to a culture of excellence and continuous growth - Committed to ongoing learning and staying ahead of trends in luxury lighting and interior design - Consistently represents Visual Comfort’s brand values and commitment to service. Now "Your Career Path at Visual Comfort & Co." maybe could be part of About the role or Qualifications? It's about advancement. Could be included in About the role or maybe a separate section like "Career Growth". But only allowed headings list; we could put it under About the role or maybe Qualifications. Since it's not exactly qualifications, but could be part of About the role. We'll incorporate into About the role paragraph. Now Benefits: from "Visual Comfort Offers:": - Work-Life Balance: Monday - Friday, 7:30am – 4:00pm or 9:00am - 5:30pm - Training & Development: A comprehensive and structured training program, complemented by ongoing education and opportunities for career advancement. - Paid Time Off: Generous vacation accrual and paid time off policies. - Holidays: 7 paid holidays per year, in addition to 2 floating holidays. - Compensation: Competitive compensation. (but we have separate Pay) - Health Benefits: Visual Comfort covers the majority of employee medical premiums, and offers competitive vision and dental coverage available starting the first of the month following your start date. - Insurance: Company-provided life insurance and short-term disability coverage. - Retirement: 401(k) plan with company matching up to 4%, available beginning the first of the month following your hire date. We need Benefits section: include all except Pay and Schedule (which we will separate). So Benefits: Training & Development, Paid Time Off, Holidays, Health Benefits, Insurance, Retirement. Work-Life Balance is schedule; we will put under Schedule. Pay: Compensation Range: $24 - $30 per hour plus note: Compensation is based on individual factors, including skill set, relevant experience, and work location. Schedule: Work-Life Balance: Monday - Friday, 7:30am – 4:00pm or 9:00am - 5:30pm. Now we must not include filler like "Competitive compensation" as Benefits? Actually we have separate Pay; we can still include "Competitive compensation" under Benefits? But we have Pay section for that. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The posting states "Compensation: Competitive compensation." That's vague but it's stated. However we also have specific range. We could include that in Pay section. For Benefits we can exclude the generic "Compensation: Competitive compensation." as it's covered in Pay. Now ensure we don't include boilerplate: EEO, immigration, etc. Now produce HTML. We'll wrap sections in

    and

    or

      . Let's craft. About the role paragraph: combine who we are and role description plus career path.

Now Responsibilities
        with each bullet. Now Requirements? Actually we have "What you will bring:" which could be Requirements. We'll use

        Requirements

        with
          of those bullet points. Now Qualifications: maybe Bachelor's degree preferred? But that's already in Requirements. Could also include "Proficient with Microsoft Office Suite; experience with CRM/ERP systems (D365 or JDE a plus)" etc. That's skills. We'll separate Skills. Thus:

          Qualifications

          Bachelor's degree preferred

          But we might also include other qualifications like "2+ years of experience..." but that's more requirement. We'll keep Requirements for experience and skills, Qualifications for education. Now Skills: maybe "Proficient with Microsoft Office Suite; experience with CRM/ERP systems (D365 or JDE a plus)", "Familiarity with lighting technology (color temperature, CRI, lumens, dimming, control systems such as Lutron or Controls) a plus—genuine curiosity and eagerness to learn is what matters most", "Warm, polished communicator—effective by phone, email, and in person", "Organized and detail-oriented, able to manage multiple client relationships simultaneously", "Ability to represent the Visual Comfort brand with professionalism and pride at client meetings and industry events", "Collaborative team player who contributes to a culture of excellence and continuous growth", "Committed to ongoing learning and staying ahead of trends in luxury lighting and interior design", "Consistently represents Visual Comfort’s brand values and commitment to service." But many of those overlap with requirements. However we need to preserve all substantive info; we can split them arbitrarily but must not lose info. We'll put all "What you will bring:" items under Requirements (or Skills). To avoid duplication, we can put all under Requirements and not have Skills. But the instruction allows us to choose sections; we can have only Requirements and not Skills if we want. However we need to include all info; we can put all bullet points under Requirements. That's fine. Thus we may not need Skills section. But we have to decide if we want to include Skills section; it's optional. We'll keep only
