Note there is also "If Verizon and this role sound like a fit for you, we encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every “even better” qualification listed above." That's application encouragement; we should remove application instructions? The rule says remove application instructions. This is more of encouragement to apply; maybe considered application instruction? Safer to remove that sentence.
Then "Where you’ll be working In this hybrid role, you'll have a defined work location that includes working from home and a minimum of three days per week in the office, which will be set by your manager. Employees are responsible for maintaining compliance with hybrid work policies." That's schedule/location info.

Then "Equal Employment Opportunity Verizon is an equal opportunity employer..." Remove EEO boilerplate.
Then "Benefits And Compensation Our benefits are designed to help you move forward in your career, and in areas of your life outside of Verizon.

We need Benefits section: include all that info (but maybe separate Pay? The Benefits section includes compensation info like vacation, 401k, holidays, etc. The Pay section could include salary variability, incentive based, etc. However the Benefits section already mentions compensation forms like premium pay etc. Might be overlapping. But we can keep Benefits as described, and Pay separate with salary variability statement.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. Keep all substantive info.
We need to use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For Benefits, we have a list of items: medical, dental, vision, short and long term disability, basic life insurance, supplemental life insurance, AD&D insurance, identity theft protection, pet insurance and group home & auto insurance; matched 401(k) savings plan; up to 8 company paid holidays per year; up to 6 personal days per year; paid parental leave; adoption assistance; tuition assistance; other incentives; premium pay such as overtime, shift differential, holiday pay, allowances; vacation days up to 15 per year growing with service; part-timers coverage varies.
We could make a
- for each benefit item. However the benefits paragraph includes sentences; we could break into list items. The rule: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should convert the benefits enumeration into a list. We'll need to parse the benefits paragraph into discrete items.

- premium pay such as overtime, shift differential, holiday pay, allowances
- up to 15 days of vacation per year (grows with additional service)
- For part-timers, coverage varies based on eligibility

Now Pay section: The salary will vary depending on your location and confirmed job-related skills and experience. This is an incentive based position with the potential to earn more. For part-time roles, your compensation will be adjusted to reflect your hours.
We'll put that in
.
Schedule section: Hybrid role: defined work location includes working from home and a minimum of three days per week in the office, set by manager. Employees responsible for maintaining compliance with hybrid work policies. Scheduled Weekly Hours 40.

We need to preserve all substantive info, including typos like "yars". We'll keep as is.
We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat.

We'll output:
