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. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove duplicated "About Lowe's" repeated paragraphs. Also remove "Starting rate of pay may vary..."? That's about pay but it's vague: "Starting rate of pay may vary based on factors..." That's not specific pay amount, it's generic. According to rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. The posting mentions benefits: "As a Lowe's associate, you'll gain access to a variety of benefits beyond competitive pay and flexible schedules. Earn more from your sales performance with additional bonus opportunities. Make your well-being a priority with multiple health insurance options. Explore educational opportunities with Lowe's tuition assistance program. Take charge of your financial future with a company-matching 401(k). Gain extra savings with a 10% Associate Discount. Learn new trade skills with our Track to the Trades program." Also a link for benefits. So we have specific benefits content. So we can include Benefits section with those bullet points. Pay: The posting does not give a specific pay rate or range; only mentions "competitive pay" and "bonus opportunities". That's not specific. According to rule: never create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "competitive pay" but not a number. Likely we should not include Pay section because it's not specific. Similarly Schedule: mentions flexible schedules but not specific. So we skip Pay and Schedule. About the role: The first paragraph: "Your Impact at Lowe's As a Sales Specialist, you will be one of the first people our customers meet. Your sales expertise can help customers find the products they need and encourage them to transform a great project idea into reality. If you enjoy helping people and solving problems in a fast-paced environment, this is the perfect role for you." Also "How We Support You" paragraph maybe part of About the role? Could be separate but we can include under About the role. The "How We Support You" paragraph includes benefits but we already have Benefits section. Might still include some supportive statements not benefits? It says: "Whether you need a part-time position or a place to plant yourself and grow, Lowe's is ready to support your goals. As a Lowe's associate, you'll gain access to a variety of benefits beyond competitive pay and flexible schedules." That's basically benefits again. We'll keep benefits separate. Your Day at Lowe's: description of duties. Could go under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Day-to-Day". But we have Responsibilities section with bullet list of responsibilities. The "Your Day at Lowe's" is prose describing typical day; we could include as a paragraph under About the role or Responsibilities. Probably better to put under About the role as narrative. Key Responsibilities: bullet list (some are long sentences). We'll put under Responsibilities
  • . Minimum Qualifications: list. We'll put under Requirements (or Qualifications?). The spec says we can use Requirements, Qualifications, Skills sections. We need to decide. Minimum Qualifications likely go under Requirements. Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications or Skills? Preferred qualifications include experience, certification, bilingual skills. Could go under Qualifications. Skills maybe not explicitly listed; but we could put bilingual skills under Skills. However we have Preferred Qualifications that includes bilingual skills. We'll treat Preferred Qualifications as Qualifications section. We also have "Travel Requirements", "Working Conditions", "About Lowe's" (company overview). Those could be omitted as boilerplate? Travel Requirements maybe not boilerplate but it's generic. The rule: include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. Travel Requirements: "This role does not require regular travel; however, this role may need to travel occasionally to meetings, training, or to support neighboring stores." That's specific enough? It's not boilerplate but it's generic. Might be okay to include under a section like "Travel". But we don't have a heading for Travel in allowed headings list. Allowed headings are only those listed: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we cannot add Travel. So we must either fold that content into another allowed section or drop it. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it." For Travel Requirements, it's not metadata but maybe we can fold into About the role or Responsibilities? Probably drop as not essential? But we need to preserve ALL substantive information. Travel Requirements is substantive. However we cannot create a new heading; we must fold into existing allowed headings. Could add a paragraph under About the role or Responsibilities. Probably under About the role we can add a sentence about travel. Working Conditions: also substantive. Could fold into About the role or Responsibilities as well. About Lowe's company overview: could be folded into About the role? Might be considered boilerplate but it's specific about Lowe's. Could be included as a paragraph under About the role. We must not repeat duplicated lines. There's duplicated "About Lowe's" paragraphs (two similar but with different years). We need to keep only one version, maybe the later one (FY 2025). We'll keep the second one (more recent) as it's more specific. Remove the first. Also remove EEO boilerplate at end. Also remove "For information about our benefit programs and eligibility, please visit https://talent.lowes.com/us/en/benefits." appears twice; we can keep once maybe in Benefits section as a link. We must not include application instructions. There's none explicit besides maybe "To better equip our stores..." not application. Now craft HTML. Structure:
