Let's parse the posting.
First paragraph: "As a Field Sales Veterinary Diagnostic Consultant (VDC), you will be on the front lines working to build strong relationships with our Veterinary customers to help sell IDEXX’s medical device diagnostics portfolio of products. In this field sales role, you will engage customers through knowledgeable interactions, business discussions and educational opportunities about what IDEXX has to offer. You will leverage your consultative selling techniques to translate customer needs into diagnostic solutions that leverage IDEXX's suite of products and services. In helping veterinary practices grow their diagnostic revenue, you will establish yourself as a valued partner."
That's about the role.
Then "Why This Role Matters Communicating the true value of our veterinary diagnostic and technology products and services is at the heart of our IDEXX’s commercial business. Our sales professionals develop deep and meaningful relationships offering solutions to meet our customers' unique needs."
That's also about role.
Then "In This Role You will leverage your ability to independently manage your territory and customer base to increase the recurring diagnostic revenue year over as well as attain quarterly medical device equipment sales. By increasing the utilization of in-house diagnostic tests and assays, instrument consumables and reference laboratory profiles and advanced tests among your customer base, you will in turn, increase the recurring revenue.You will have the opportunity to collaborate and “co-sell” with other IDEXX sales professionals in the region to close the capital equipment and technology.You will educate and train veterinary clinic staff about products, services and marketing initiatives, including how to engage customer service is an important part of your role.

That's responsibilities.

Hold a valid driver’s license.This is veterinary sales; you should be comfortable with going into veterinary clinic and hospital environments.Candidates must reside within or be willing to relocate into the South Bend territory (Greater South Bend, Goshen, Fort Wayne area)."
That's requirements/qualifications/skills.

That's EEO boilerplate; we must remove.
Thus sections: About the role (maybe combine first paragraph + Why This Role Matters). Responsibilities (In This Role...). Requirements (What You Need To Succeed). Qualifications maybe overlapping; but we can combine Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real specific content. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (education, experience), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (maybe teamwork, travel, lifting, driver license, comfort in vet clinic, relocation). Benefits (health/dental/vision, company car, etc). Pay (base salary range, quarterly commission). Schedule? Not explicitly mentioned; there is mention of travel, weekend work as needed, but not a schedule like full-time, part-time, shift. Could we infer schedule? The instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Schedule not explicitly stated; we have mention of flexibility for potential weekend work as needed, but not a schedule like "full-time". Might be considered schedule info? It's about work schedule flexibility. Could we include a Schedule section with that info? The posting says: "You are able to meet the requirements of a field sales role that include but are not limited to extensive car travel (company car provided), some travel overnight as needed as well as flexibility for potential weekend work (as needed) to attend tradeshows or other occasion meeting". That's about schedule flexibility. Could be considered schedule. However the instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state flexibility for potential weekend work, which is schedule-related. So we could include a Schedule section with that detail. But we must not include placeholder text like "varies". We have actual statement: flexibility for potential weekend work as needed. So we can include Schedule section with that.
Pay: base salary range and quarterly commission structure.
Benefits: health/dental/vision day one, company car, cell phone, computer, corporate credit card, financial support, pet insurance, mental health resources, volunteer paid days off, employee stock program, foundation donation matching.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with headings and - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to decide what goes into lists vs prose.
For About the role: likely prose paragraphs.
Responsibilities: list of duties.
Requirements: list (education, experience, etc). Could be list.
Qualifications: maybe list of specific qualifications (industry experience, teamwork, etc). Could combine with Requirements but we need separate headings if content exists.
Skills: list of skills (teamwork, travel, lifting, driver license, comfort in vet clinic, relocation).
Benefits: list.
Pay: maybe prose or list? Could be
with salary range and commission.
Schedule: maybe
about flexibility.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No markdown.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like "bachelor's or equivalent combination of education and experience", "5 or more years of proven experience successfully managing your own outside sales territory", "ideal territory management sales experience has been in the veterinary/animal health industry, Human Healthcare or medical device sales, dental device sales, and/or prior capital equipment sales", "work well with others in a highly team oriented, collaborative, sales environment", "extensive car travel (company car provided)", "some travel overnight as needed", "flexibility for potential weekend work (as needed) to attend tradeshows or other occasion meeting", "able to lift up to 60 pounds", "Hold a valid driver’s license", "comfortable with going into veterinary clinic and hospital environments", "Candidates must reside within or be willing to relocate into the South Bend territory (Greater South Bend, Goshen, Fort Wayne area)".
Also responsibilities list: "leverage your ability to independently manage your territory and customer base to increase the recurring diagnostic revenue year over as well as attain quarterly medical device equipment sales", "increase the utilization of in-house diagnostic tests and assays, instrument consumables and reference laboratory profiles and advanced tests among your customer base", "collaborate and “co-sell” with other IDEXX sales professionals in the region to close the capital equipment and technology", "educate and train veterinary clinic staff about products, services and marketing initiatives, including how to engage customer service is an important part of your role", "maintain comprehensive and up-to-date knowledge of IDEXX's products and services", "communicating customer needs as well as competitive issues to both IDEXX's marketing organization and your business unit manager", "partner with and assist laboratory operations to ensure that customer questions and service issues are satisfactorily addressed and resolved", "present IDEXX's values to our customers in a professional manner, including an understanding of our industry, veterinary practice, customers, technology, operations and processes", "attend trade shows and other educational events in the region", "manage IDEXX expenses and resources in line with company guidelines and directives", "adhere to and model the IDEXX purpose and guiding principles", "Other duties as assigned."
Also about role: "build strong relationships with our Veterinary customers to help sell IDEXX’s medical device diagnostics portfolio of products", "engage customers through knowledgeable interactions, business discussions and educational opportunities about what IDEXX has to offer", "leverage your consultative selling techniques to translate customer needs into diagnostic solutions that leverage IDEXX's suite of products and services", "helping veterinary practices grow their diagnostic revenue, you will establish yourself as a valued partner", "Why This Role Matters Communicating the true value of our veterinary diagnostic and technology products and services is at the heart of our IDEXX’s commercial business. Our sales professionals develop deep and meaningful relationships offering solutions to meet our customers' unique needs."
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Why IDEXX" etc.
