We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Company Overview: could be "About the role"? Actually "Company Overview" is about the company, not role. The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content to these headings. The posting includes: Job Summary & Key Responsibilities (list of duties). Then Territory Coverage, Location Requirement, Qualifications (list), Salary And Benefits (including compensation philosophy, benefits list). Also Student Loan Repayment Assistance Program, Engagement, Inclusion + Social Impact (maybe not needed). Also EOE boilerplate to remove. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Thus we need sections: About the role? Could use "About the role" for company overview and job summary? Might be better to have "About the role" containing job summary and key responsibilities? But we also have separate Responsibilities heading. The instruction says use headings for those section headings; we can decide to include About the role (brief description), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe education/experience?), Skills (maybe specific skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to include Pay section only if posting states salary range. It does: Pay Range USD $95,000.00 - USD $125,000.00 /Yr. So we include Pay. Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly; there is willingness to work evenings and weekends as needed, travel overnight up to 50%, but not a schedule like full-time/part-time. Probably we should not create Schedule section because no explicit schedule info. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Benefits are stated, so include Benefits. Pay stated, include Pay. Schedule not stated, so omit. Now we need to extract substantive content for each section. Let's parse: Company Overview: At Benjamin Moore, our success is attributable to the employees... (talk about values, benefits, career development, etc). This could go under About the role? Or maybe we could treat as About the role (company overview). We'll include that. Job Summary & Key Responsibilities: list of duties (bulleted). We'll put under Responsibilities. Territory Coverage: description of territory. Could be part of Responsibilities or maybe Requirements? It's about where you work. Could be part of Responsibilities (support sales team within territory). We'll include under Responsibilities as a bullet. Location Requirement: must reside within reasonable commuting distance of Orlando or Lewisville. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. We'll put under Requirements. Qualifications: list: Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience; Minimum 7-10 years’ B2B paint & coating sales experience; Knowledge of architectural and industrial coatings, market dynamics, and application best practices; NACE Certified (complete or in process); Specification writing proficiency; Working knowledge of required software programs (Microsoft Office, CRM); Excellent communication, listening, and public speaking skills; Ability to analyze situations, identify obstacles and opportunities for success; Effective problem-solving, time-management, negotiating & complaint handling skills; Exceptional interpersonal and team interaction skills; Valid driver's license and good driving record are a must; Willingness to work evenings and weekends as needed; Must be able to travel overnight to attend meetings, conferences, and trade shows; Must reside in the desired geography or be willing to relocate; Ability to travel overnight up to 50% to areas of coverage; Bi-lingual in Spanish a plus, but not required. We need to separate Qualifications vs Skills vs Requirements. The instruction says we can use those headings; we need to decide what goes where. Typically Qualifications: education, experience, certifications. Skills: specific abilities like communication, problem-solving, software knowledge, etc. Requirements: maybe location, travel, driver's license, willingness to work evenings, etc. But we can also combine. We must not invent or summarize away detail; we need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to list each item under appropriate heading, but we must not lose any detail. We could create sections: Qualifications (education, experience, certification), Skills (communication, problem-solving, software, etc.), Requirements (location, travel, driver's license, willingness to work evenings/nights, relocation, bilingual plus). But we need to ensure we don't duplicate. Let's extract each item and assign. List items from Qualifications paragraph: - Bachelor’s degree (BA/BS) or equivalent experience - Minimum 7-10 years’ B2B paint & coating sales experience - Knowledge of architectural and industrial coatings, market dynamics, and application best practices - NACE Certified (complete or in process) - Specification writing proficiency - Working knowledge of required software programs (Microsoft Office, CRM) - Excellent communication, listening, and public speaking skills - Ability to analyze situations, identify obstacles and opportunities for success - Effective problem-solving, time-management, negotiating & complaint handling skills - Exceptional interpersonal and team interaction skills - Valid driver's license and good driving record are a must - Willingness to work evenings and weekends as needed - Must be able to travel overnight to attend meetings, conferences, and trade shows - Must reside in the desired geography or be willing to relocate - Ability to travel overnight up to 50% to areas of coverage - Bi-lingual in Spanish a plus, but not required Now we need to decide headings. Qualifications: could include education, experience, certification: Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience; Minimum 7-10 years’ B2B paint & coating sales experience; NACE Certified (complete or in process). Possibly also specification writing proficiency? That's a skill. Skills: Knowledge of architectural and industrial coatings, market dynamics, and application best practices; Specification writing proficiency; Working knowledge of required software programs (Microsoft Office, CRM); Excellent communication, listening, and public speaking skills; Ability to analyze situations, identify obstacles and opportunities for success; Effective problem-solving, time-management, negotiating & complaint handling skills; Exceptional interpersonal and team interaction skills; Bi-lingual in Spanish a plus, but not required. Requirements: Valid driver's license and good driving record are a must; Willingness to work evenings and weekends as needed; Must be able to travel overnight to attend meetings, conferences, and trade shows; Must reside in the desired geography or be willing to relocate; Ability to travel overnight up to 50% to areas of coverage. Location Requirement earlier: Candidates must reside within a reasonable commuting distance of either our Orlando, Florida, or Lewisville, Texas facility to support regular onsite collaboration as needed. That's also a requirement. We could combine location requirement with "must reside in the desired geography or be willing to relocate" but note that location requirement is more specific: must reside near Orlando or Lewisville. The later "must reside in the desired geography or be willing to relocate" is generic. We'll keep both. Now Responsibilities: from Job Summary & Key Responsibilities bullet list: - In-field technical support within specific geographical territory - Technical specification work with site evaluation and specification/proposal writing, assistance as needed - Resolution of major complaints/customer concerns, and architectural and industrial product placement selling in and out of channel - Support regional sales director, area sales managers, territory representatives, and training implementation specialist in executing regional product training and application sessions for field sales and retailers - Support architectural & design representatives (ADRs) and architectural specification writers with complex specification writing, continuing education classes, and general training of architects & designers - Support national account representatives with technical support, specification writing, and prospecting for opportunities within a specific geographic area - Territory Coverage: The territory covers the entire Southern Market, including Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Georgia. We could treat territory coverage as part of responsibilities (maybe separate bullet). We'll include as bullet. Now Benefits: list: Medical/Dental/Vision; 401(k) match; PTO starting at 3 weeks' vacation + (7) paid holidays and (5) personal days; Employer-paid life insurance; Tuition reimbursement; Engagement, Inclusion + Social Impact (maybe not a benefit but we can include under Benefits? It's more about culture). Also Student Loan Repayment Assistance Program. We'll include those as benefits. Also mention "competitive compensation and benefits package" but we already have Pay. Now Pay: Salary range: USD $95,000.00 - USD $125,000.00 /Yr. Now About the role: Could include Company Overview and Job Summary? But we already have Responsibilities separate. About the role could be a brief description: "Benjamin Moore seeks an ambitious, self-motivated individual to join our sales team." plus company overview about values, benefits, etc. We'll include company overview paragraph as About the role. Now we must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is not given explicitly but we can ignore. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll produce something like:

We need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive information: ensure we didn't drop any. Let's craft each section's content. About the role: combine company overview and maybe job summary sentence. Company Overview: "At Benjamin Moore, our success is attributable to the employees who dedicate their time and talents to the brand and exemplify our core values of openness, integrity, community, excellence, and safety. Benjamin Moore employees enjoy a competitive and well-rounded benefits package, career development options, business resource groups, and opportunities to come together and connect with colleagues. We facilitate growth, development, and purpose for all through an inclusive and engaging workplace. Join us and be part of a brand that inspires creativity, innovation, and passion while supporting locally owned stores in 65 countries." Job Summary sentence: "Benjamin Moore & Co. seeks an ambitious, self-motivated individual to join our sales team." Could be included. We'll combine: "At Benjamin Moore, our success is attributable to the employees who dedicate their time and talents to the brand and exemplify our core values of openness, integrity, community, excellence, and safety. Benjamin Moore employees enjoy a competitive and well-rounded benefits package, career development options, business resource groups, and opportunities to come together and connect with colleagues.

Join us and be part of a brand that inspires creativity, innovation, and passion while supporting locally owned stores in 65 countries.
