      with

Probably better to put under Schedule: hybrid work schedule, willingness to work onsite, VISA sponsorship eligibility.

        . We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Also must not include "Posting End Date", "Job Posting Locations"? Actually location could be considered metadata but not required heading. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

        or drop it. Locations could be minor metadata; we could include in a short

        maybe under About the role? But we might drop it. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Locations are substantive? Possibly yes, but they said fold minor metadata into a short

        or drop it. Locations could be considered minor metadata. However, they said "Preserve ALL substantive information". Locations might be substantive for applicant. But they also said "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

        or drop it." So we can include locations in a short

        maybe under About the role or as a separate paragraph before sections. But we must not create a heading for it. Let's include a

        with the three locations. We also need to include "Job Expectations: This position offers a hybrid work schedule. Willingness to work onsite at stated location on the job posting. This position is eligible for VISA sponsorship." That's schedule and visa. We'll put under Schedule. We must not include "Reflected is the base pay range offered for this position. Pay may vary depending on factors..." etc. That's part of Pay. We must not include "Information will be shared about expectations during the recruitment process". That's boilerplate. We must not include "Job Posting Locations:" line maybe we can incorporate. We must not include "Posting End Date: 30 Sep 2026 * Job posting may come down early due to volume of applicants." That's boilerplate? It's date; maybe minor metadata. Could be dropped. But preserving all substantive info? The date is not essential for role; but it's info. However they said we can drop minor metadata. I'd drop it. We must not include EEO etc. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:

        Locations: Three Wells Fargo Center, 401 S Tryon St, CHARLOTTE, NC; Las Colinas Bldg B, Irving Campus, IRVING, TX; West Des Moines Campus, WEST DES MOINES, IA; 600 Wells Fargo, Minneapolis, MN.

        Then sections. Let's craft.
