Full Time - Sales Specialist - Flooring - Day

We need to output HTML fragment with 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. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to parse the posting. Let's extract sections: - 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" maybe part of Benefits? Actually "How We Support You" describes benefits: part-time, growth, benefits beyond competitive pay and flexible schedules, bonus opportunities, health insurance, tuition assistance, 401(k) matching, associate discount, Track to the Trades. Also link to benefits page. - Your Day at Lowe's: description of duties: moving throughout store, answering phones, talking to customers, communicating project needs, answering questions, helping accomplish goals, product expert, informing customers of specs, features, promotions, financing options, consulting services, working in departments list. - Key Responsibilities: bullet list (Provide SMART customer service..., Serve as point of contact..., If in Pro Department..., Monitor inventory..., Perform price reviews..., Support all checkout functions..., Train associates..., Complete other duties as assigned) - Minimum Qualifications: list (High School Diploma or GED, 1 year experience in customer-facing sales or 6 months of Lowe’s retail experience (Or 3 years of external experience in customer-facing sales or 18 months of Lowe’s retail experience if education requirement is not met), 1 year of experience in sales or customer service in a sales environment with required sales goals or metrics, Able to Read, write, and perform basic arithmetic (addition and subtraction), Able to stand and sit for prolonged periods, Minimally lift 25lbs unassisted or over 25lbs with or without an accommodation, Obtain sales-related licensure or registration if required by law in your state (Lowe's will support and fund this requirement)) - Preferred Qualifications: list (1 year of experience in completing customer sales orders, 1 Year Experience promoting product related services and plans such as installation, delivery, credit financing, or extended protection plan, 2 years of experience designing customized products for customers using 20/20 or Computer-Aided Design System, Professional certification related to the department being considered, Bi-lingual skills) - Additional note: "Lowe's commitment to growth and teamwork extends to the community as well. To better equip our stores and serve our communities, we strongly encourage bilingual, military, and veteran talent to apply and join our team." Could be part of Skills? Might be a note but not required. - 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 travel, not schedule. Could be part of Schedule? Not exactly schedule. Might be omitted if not schedule. - Working Conditions: environmental factors, inside/outside, exposure to climates, noise, lifting methods, etc. This could be part of Requirements? Might be considered as "Working Conditions" but not a requested section. We could include under Requirements or maybe as a separate section not requested; but we should only include sections from list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Working Conditions not in list, so we should not create a section for it. However we need to preserve all substantive information; we cannot drop it. But we can incorporate relevant details into existing sections (e.g., Requirements could include physical demands). The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we need to include that info somewhere. We can put it under Requirements (maybe as a sub-list) or under a generic "Requirements" section that includes qualifications and working conditions. However the spec says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid adding other headings, but says "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies those are the allowed headings; we should not create other headings. So we must fit all info into those sections. Thus we need to map: - About the role: includes the initial impact paragraph and maybe "How We Support You"? Actually that's benefits. But we can keep About the role as the introductory description of role and impact. - Responsibilities: includes "Your Day at Lowe's" description and the "Key Responsibilities" bullet list. - Requirements: includes Minimum Qualifications, plus maybe Working Conditions (physical demands, environmental factors) and Travel Requirements? Travel could be under Schedule? Not exactly schedule. But we could put Travel under Requirements as well (maybe as a note). However Travel Requirements is not a qualification but a condition; but we can still include under Requirements. - Qualifications: includes Preferred Qualifications. - Skills: maybe we can extract from Preferred Qualifications (bi-lingual skills, certification, experience with 20/20 CAD, promoting product related services, completing sales orders). Also maybe from Minimum Qualifications (basic arithmetic, reading/writing). But we can put skills under Skills section. - Benefits: includes the list from "How We Support You": part-time or full-time, growth, bonus opportunities, health insurance options, tuition assistance, 401(k) matching, 10% associate discount, Track to the Trades program. Also link to benefits page. - Pay: includes Pay Range: $18.50 - $20.00 per hour, starting rate may vary based on factors. - Schedule: The posting mentions flexible schedules in "How We Support You": "flexible schedules". Also maybe mention part-time or full-time. So we can put schedule info there: flexible schedules, part-time or full-time. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions, cookie/navigation. Also remove duplicated benefit link lines. We need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences. Let's craft. Structure:
