We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description of Ascend, then "What We Offer", "What You Will Do Everyday", then sections like Member Service, Loan Service, Teller Services, Quality Control, Other, Organizational Goals, etc. Also "What You Will Need To Succeed" includes Education, Work Experience, Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities.
We need to use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. However we must only include sections when posting has real specific content. The posting does not have explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections. So we should not create those headings. We need to avoid filler. We can map content to appropriate headings: "About the role" could be the introductory description about Ascend and the role? The posting includes "Ascend is the largest credit union..." That's about the company, not role. Could be considered About the role? Might be okay. Then responsibilities: list of duties (What You Will Do Everyday, Member Service, Loan Service, Teller Services, Quality Control, Other, Organizational Goals). Requirements: Education, Work Experience. Qualifications: maybe Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities? But we have separate Skills heading. The instruction says use headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which content goes where.
We have Education, Work Experience (Requirements). Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities could go under Skills (maybe also Qualifications). But we have both Qualifications and Skills headings; we could put Qualifications for certifications (CCUFC) and maybe preferred degree, and Skills for interpersonal, communication, technical abilities.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /. Use

We must output only HTML fragment, no /. Use for each section heading, then content:
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, social media connect, etc. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should remove "Connect with us on social media..." and "Ascend Federal Credit Union is an Equal Opportunity Employer". Also remove "Please note: This job description is not intended to be an exhaustive list..." maybe that's boilerplate? It's a disclaimer; could be considered boilerplate but it's part of job description. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The note about not exhaustive list is not exactly those categories; but it's a generic disclaimer. Might be considered boilerplate? Safer to keep? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This note is not those. However it's a generic statement; but we could keep it as part of "Other" maybe. But we have an "Other" section already. Might incorporate.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience", etc. Not present.
We need to ensure we don't create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does not mention pay, schedule, benefits explicitly besides "What We Offer" which mentions rewarding career opportunities, competitive benefits, unique work culture, distinctions. That is somewhat benefits but not specific. The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." The posting does mention "competitive benefits" but not specific benefits. It's vague. Might be considered not specific enough to create a Benefits section. Safer to omit Benefits section.
Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills.
We need to map content.
About the role: description of Ascend and the role's purpose? Could combine the introductory paragraph about Ascend and maybe "What We Offer"? But "What We Offer" is about benefits/culture; but we are not making Benefits section. Could put that under About the role as prose.
Responsibilities: list of duties (What You Will Do Everyday, Member Service, Loan Service, Teller Services, Quality Control, Other, Organizational Goals). We'll need to create
- items for each duty. Must preserve all substantive information; we should not lose details. Could group similar items but must keep detail. Could create a long list. Requirements: Education and Work Experience. Qualifications: maybe Certifications (CCUFC) and preferred degree? Actually Education already covered. Qualifications could be "Obtain the Certified Credit Union Financial Counselor (CCUFC) designation by passing the CUNA Financial Certification Program (FICEP) exam". Also maybe "Associate's Degree or specialized financial services training is preferred". But that's education. Could put under Qualifications: "Associate's Degree or specialized financial services training preferred". And certification requirement. Skills: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities list. We must not repeat content. Ensure we don't duplicate. Let's extract details. From posting: Intro: "Ascend is the largest credit union in Middle Tennessee and one of the largest credit unions in the United States, with over $4 billion in assets.
