after Responsibilities. Similarly, Qualifications list: abilities. Education And Experience: separate list. We can combine Qualifications and Education & Experience into Requirements? But we have both headings allowed. Let's do: - About the role (p) - Responsibilities (ul) - Requirements (ul) for Education And Experience - Qualifications (ul) for abilities - Benefits (ul) maybe with preceding p - Pay (p or ul) - Schedule (p) We must not repeat job title as heading. Now craft HTML. We'll output:
