We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. First, job title: Real Estate Specialist (not to be repeated as heading). We need sections: - About the role: maybe a short description of what the role does. The posting starts: "The Real Estate Specialist performs a variety of functions including identifying, previewing, and securing properties for residential, commercial, and day program use; negotiating and administering lease agreements; coordinating activities related to purchases; communicating appropriate information to myriad constituencies; and collaborating with program and facilities staff to negotiate and coordinate repair, maintenance, and lease-related responsibilities with property owners." That's a description of role. So we can put that under

About the role

with a

. - Responsibilities: The posting has a "Responsibilities" heading then bullet list under Site Acquisition, Lease Management, Reporting, Planning. So we need a

Responsibilities

with
  • items. We need to preserve all substantive info. We can break each bullet into list items. Let's extract responsibilities: Under Responsibilities: Site Acquisition: - Develop and maintain a network of landlords, property management companies, real estate brokers, investors, and company personnel to assist with identifying and securing residential and commercial properties suitable for Vinfen programs within budgetary parameters. - Coordinate appointments for program preview and department site feasibility. - Assist Facilities staff in coordinating all necessary inspections. - Assist Facilities and program staff in developing punch list of build-out requirements; communicate and negotiate said requirements to/with owner. - Negotiate lease or sale terms, consulting with attorneys and Vinfen management as necessary; review and process all necessary documents regarding purchase or lease of an identified property.

We need to keep all these as list items. Next, Knowledge And Skills: This could be under Skills or Requirements. The posting has "Knowledge And Skills" with bullet list. We can treat as

    Skills

    (or Knowledge and Skills). The instruction says use headings like Skills. So we can put

    with list.

Could be under About the role? Already used. Could be separate section like About the company but not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we could put company description under About the role? But we already used that for role description. Maybe we can incorporate it into About the role as additional paragraph. Or we could skip it because not required heading. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could combine role description and company info under About the role. That seems okay. Next, Qualifications: The posting has "Qualifications Typical Requirements: Five to seven years’ experience in real estate and property administration on a corporate level. In some instances, experience may be substituted for academic training. Preferred /Required Education High school diploma or equivalent required; Bachelor’s degree preferred. Driving Requirements Driving a Vinfen owned/leased vehicle or Vinfen clients is not required. Physical Effort Ability to lift at least 25 pounds using proper lifting techniques.

Required Certifications N/R Required Credentials/Licenses Real Estate Broker license required" We need to put under

    Qualifications

    with list items (or paragraphs). The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. Qualifications is a list of requirements, so we should use

      • . We'll list each requirement.

Next, Pay Range: The posting includes "Pay Range USD $55,700.00 - USD $60,000.00 /Yr." That's pay info. So we need a

        Pay

        with

        containing that. Benefits and Schedule: Not mentioned, so we omit those sections. We also need to remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. Already omitted. Now produce HTML fragment:
