for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to extract substantive content: The job description summary: "Play an integral role in the department's activities with a high level of responsibility as a member of a specific industry-focused team. Responsibilities include formulating new business proposals, developing company forecasts and valuations, evaluating merger and acquisition scenarios and preparing documents related to the public issuance of stock."
Then "Job Description Responsibilities:" list many bullet-like sentences. Those are responsibilities. We'll put them under
Responsibilities
with - each.
Then "Skills:" list many bullet-like statements. We'll put under
Skills
with - .
Then "Education Bachelor’s: Accounting (Required), Bachelor’s: Business Administration (Required), Bachelor’s: Finance (Required)" => Qualifications/Education. Could be under
Qualifications
or Education
. The allowed headings include Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule, About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements. We can use Qualifications for education and experience. Also "Work Experience General Experience - 3 to 6 years" and "Certifications Securities Industry Essentials Exam (SIE) - Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA)". Those also go under Qualifications.
Then "Salary Range $100,000.00-$200,000.00" => Pay section.
Then "Travel Less than 25%" maybe not a section; could be omitted as not a heading. Not required.
"Workstyle Resident" maybe not needed.
Then benefits description: "The total compensation for this position includes base salary or wages, and may include components such as additional compensation (cash or equity), discretionary bonuses, or commissions. This position is eligible for a benefits package that may include medical, dental, and vision; life insurance; critical illness insurance and accident insurance; disability benefits; retirement savings; paid time off (including vacation, holidays, and sick leave); and parental leave. Eligibility for benefits and specific offerings may vary based on position and employment status. To view more details of the benefits offered, visit Myrjbenefits.com." This is benefits content. We'll put under Benefits
with maybe also list items? Could list as
- but it's prose. We'll use
.
Then there is a paragraph about Raymond James guiding behaviors etc. That's boilerplate? It's company culture but not required? It's not boilerplate like EEO; it's maybe okay to keep? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The culture paragraph is not explicitly prohibited, but it's somewhat generic. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO. It's about company values. Might be okay to keep as part of About the role? Could be considered fluff. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could include an About the role section with summary and maybe culture. But we already have summary in the first paragraph. Could put that under About the role.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience", etc. Not present.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No job title given.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. None.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Thus produce something like:

Check for duplication: Some bullet points repeated like "Typically works independently and provides guidance." appears multiple times. We should keep them as they appear in original; but we could deduplicate? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Removing duplicates could be considered summarizing away detail? It's duplicate content; but it's still substantive. Might be okay to keep duplicates? It might be considered filler but it's actually present in source. The instruction says remove duplicated lines. So we should remove duplicated lines. Indeed there are many repeated "Typically works independently and provides guidance." and similar patterns. We should deduplicate to avoid duplication. Also many sentences start with "Acts as the organizational authority..." repeated with slight variations. We should keep unique ones.
