We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the job description. Let's extract sections: - About the role: maybe the introductory paragraph: "We Deliver the Goods: Competitive pay and benefits, including Day 1 Health & Wellness Benefits, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, 401K Employer Matching, Education Assistance, Paid Time Off, and much more Growth opportunities performing essential work to support America’s food distribution system Safe and inclusive working environment, including culture of rewards, recognition, and respect North Shore Boston Territory Build Relationships.

Whether you are an experienced sales professional or a restaurant/hospitality leader looking to transition into sales, this is an opportunity to build a rewarding career with a leading foodservice distributor while earning uncapped commission and enjoying significant growth potential." That is a lot of content. Could be "About the role". We'll put that as

. - Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" bullet list: Grow sales and profitability within an assigned North Shore Boston territory. Develop new business opportunities while strengthening relationships with existing customers.

  • each. - Requirements: maybe "Required Qualifications" list: High School Diploma or GED. Valid driver's license. Ability to build relationships, communicate effectively, and influence customer decisions. Self-motivated with strong organizational and time-management skills. Ability to work independently in a field-based sales environment. We could put under

    Requirements

    or

    Qualifications

    . The instruction says we can use sections like Qualifications, Skills, etc. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. There's "Required Qualifications". So we can have

    Qualifications

    with list. - Skills: maybe not explicitly listed but could infer from responsibilities: relationship building, communication, etc. But we should not invent. There's no explicit "Skills" section. So we should not create Skills unless posting actually states them. It does not. So skip. - Benefits: The posting mentions "Competitive pay and benefits, including Day 1 Health & Wellness Benefits, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, 401K Employer Matching, Education Assistance, Paid Time Off, and much more". Also later "Competitive base salary plus uncapped commission opportunity". So we have benefits specifics. So we can have

    Benefits

    with list: Day 1 Health & Wellness Benefits, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, 401K Employer Matching, Education Assistance, Paid Time Off, etc. Also maybe "uncapped commission". But that is pay. - Pay: The posting mentions "Competitive base salary plus uncapped commission opportunity". Also earlier "Competitive pay and benefits". So we have pay info: competitive base salary plus uncapped commission. So we can have

    Pay

    with

    Competitive base salary plus uncapped commission opportunity.

    - Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly. There's "Travel is primarily local with limited overnight travel required." That's about travel, not schedule. No explicit schedule like full-time, part-time, shift. So we should not create Schedule section. - Also there is "Territory Information" maybe could be part of About the role or Responsibilities. Could be its own section but not in allowed headings list. We could incorporate into About the role or Responsibilities. Probably include in About the role. - Also "What Success Looks Like" could be part of Responsibilities or maybe a separate section but not in allowed headings. Could incorporate into Responsibilities or About the role. Probably include in Responsibilities as additional bullet. - "Join Our Team" etc is boilerplate/application instructions; we should remove. - "We Encourage Applications From ..." list: that's like encouraged backgrounds; could be part of Qualifications or maybe a separate section but not in allowed headings. Could be under Qualifications as bullet list of encouraged backgrounds. But we need to preserve all substantive info. So we should include that list somewhere. Perhaps under

    Qualifications

    we can have two lists: Required Qualifications and Preferred Backgrounds (or Encouraged Applicants). But we must not invent headings not allowed. We could still use

    Qualifications

    and include both required and encouraged as list items. Or we could have

    Requirements

    for required qualifications and

    Qualifications

    for encouraged backgrounds. But we need to decide. The instruction: "Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can use those exact headings. It doesn't forbid using both Requirements and Qualifications. So we can have both. Thus: -

    About the role

    with paragraph summarizing role description. -

    Responsibilities

    with ul list of duties (including What You'll Do, What Success Looks Like maybe). -

    Requirements

    with ul list of Required Qualifications. -

    Qualifications

    with ul list of encouraged backgrounds (Restaurant General Managers, Executive Chefs, etc). Or we could combine but better separate. -

    Benefits

    with ul list of benefits. -

    Pay

    with p about competitive base salary plus uncapped commission. We must not include Schedule. We must ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract all substantive bits.

Ability to work independently in a field-based sales environment. We need to remove boilerplate: "We Deliver the Goods:" maybe part of benefits. "Growth opportunities performing essential work to support America’s food distribution system" etc. That's substantive. We need to remove "Why Join Us?" bullet list?

But we should preserve the info: "Competitive base salary plus uncapped commission opportunity", "Established territory with significant growth potential", "Industry-leading products and solutions", "Comprehensive onboarding and sales training", "Strong operational and customer support teams", "Opportunity to build meaningful customer relationships", "Career advancement opportunities into senior sales and leadership roles". Those are substantive and could go under Benefits or About the role. But we already have Benefits list; we could add those as additional benefits. However "Established territory with significant growth potential" is more about the role. "Industry-leading products and solutions" maybe about the company. "Comprehensive onboarding and sales training" is a benefit. "Strong operational and customer support teams" is a benefit. "Opportunity to build meaningful customer relationships" is a benefit/responsibility. "Career advancement opportunities into senior sales and leadership roles" is a benefit. We need to decide where to put them. Could add to Benefits list. Also "Territory Information" paragraph: field-based sales position serving customers throughout the North Shore Boston market. Most of your time will be spent visiting customers, developing relationships, identifying new opportunities, and supporting existing accounts within the territory. Travel is primarily local with limited overnight travel required. That's substantive; could go under About the role or Responsibilities (maybe as part of role description). We'll include in About the role. Also "What Success Looks Like" bullet list: we can include under Responsibilities as additional bullets. Now we need to ensure we don't repeat info. Let's craft sections. About the role: combine introductory paragraph and territory info.
