Financial Solutions Advisor Registration Candidate- Portland Metro
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections have real content.
We have:
- Intro paragraph about Bank of America purpose, culture, etc. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". The instruction says "About the role" is an example; we can use that heading for the introductory description.
- Then "Job Description: This job is responsible for providing comprehensive advice..." That's more description of role. Could be part of About the role.
- Then "Responsibilities:" list bullet points.
- Then "Required Qualifications:" list bullet points.
- Then "Desired Qualifications:" list bullet points.
- Then "Skills:" list bullet points.
- Then "Minimum Education Requirement:" line.
- Then location note about multiple locations, training, etc. Could be part of "Schedule" or maybe not needed. There's also "Shift: 1st shift (United States of America) Hours Per Week: 40". That gives schedule info: shift and hours per week. So we can create a "Schedule" section with that info.
- Benefits, Pay: not mentioned. So we should not include those sections.
- Also note about SAFE Act registration etc. That is part of responsibilities or qualifications? It's in the job description paragraph before Responsibilities. It mentions SAFE Act registration requirements. Should be preserved. It appears in the paragraph: "This position may be responsible for the provision of residential mortgage loans, and as such, is subject to SAFE Act registration requirements. Pursuant to the SAFE Act requirements, all employees engaged in residential mortgage loan originations must register with the federal registry system and remain in good standing. Since this position requires SAFE Act registration, employees are required to register and to submit to the required SAFE Act background check. Failure to obtain and/or maintain SAFE Act registration may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination."
We need to preserve that. Where to place? Could be under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Requirements". But we have Required Qualifications and Desired Qualifications. The SAFE Act registration is more a requirement/condition. Could be placed under "Requirements" (but we don't have a Requirements heading; we have Required Qualifications). The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we could have a section "Requirements" for SAFE Act registration etc. But we also have Required Qualifications and Desired Qualifications. The instruction says use those headings as examples; we can use them. So we could have:
About the role
with intro paragraphs.
Responsibilities
with list.
Required Qualifications
with list.
Desired Qualifications
with list.
Skills
with list.
Minimum Education Requirement
maybe as (not a list). But the instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Minimum Education Requirement could be part of Qualifications? But we already have Required and Desired Qualifications. Could incorporate education into Required Qualifications? But it's separate line. Could create a section "Qualifications" and put both required and desired? But we already have separate headings for Required and Desired Qualifications. The instruction says use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It doesn't forbid using Required Qualifications and Desired Qualifications as headings; they are more specific. Probably acceptable.
We also need to include the location/training note. Could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section "Schedule"? But schedule already covers shift/hours. The location note is about multiple locations, training at one financial center, then possibly phone-based capacity until another location determined. That's not schedule; it's about work location. Could be part of About the role.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. There's none.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to preserve all substantive information.
Let's extract content:
Intro paragraphs:
"Please Note that this requisition contains multiple locations but there is not an immediate opening for every location listed***** At Bank of America, we are guided by a common purpose to help make financial lives better through the power of every connection.

Then "Minimum Education Requirement: High School Diploma / GED / Secondary School or equivalent"
Then location/training note:
"This position is open for the entire market and the specific Financial Center location will be based on business needs. If you are offered a position, you will train at one financial center, and then potentially begin your role in a phone-based capacity until another financial center location has been determined to move to that is within a reasonable commuting distance of your home to the extent permitted by applicable law."
Then repeat note: "Please Note that this requisition contains multiple locations but there is not an immediate opening for every location listed*****" (duplicate). We should remove duplicated lines.
Then "Shift: 1st shift (United States of America) Hours Per Week: 40"
Now we need to decide sections.
Potential sections:
- About the role: combine the intro paragraph about Bank of America purpose and the Job Description paragraph (including SAFE Act details). Could also include the location/training note? Might be better to put location/training note under About the role or maybe a separate section "Work Location". But instruction only lists certain headings; we can add others if needed? It says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". Likely they expect us to use those headings where appropriate. Could also add a section "Work Location" but not in list; maybe better to incorporate into About the role or Schedule.
Schedule section: we have shift and hours per week. So we can make a Schedule
with
Shift: 1st shift (United States of America) Hours Per Week: 40
.
We should not include Benefits or Pay.
We need to ensure we don't create empty sections.
Thus final HTML:

We need to ensure we removed duplicated note and any boilerplate.
Check for any other boilerplate: The initial "Please Note that this requisition contains multiple locations but there is not an immediate opening for every location listed*****" appears at start and end; we should include it only once? The instruction: remove duplicated lines. So we should include it only once. Where? It's a note about multiple locations. Could be placed in About the role or maybe as a separate note. Since it's about locations, we could include it in About the role after the intro. But we also have location/training note later. We'll include the note once, maybe at the start of About the role.
Thus About the role content:
- Note about multiple locations (the Please Note line)
- Intro paragraph about Bank of America purpose
- Job Description paragraph (including SAFE Act)
