. Also we need to keep the original text exactly, but we can change tags to semantic ones. The original includes many with spans etc. We'll need to extract the text and wrap appropriately.
We must not add any extra text. So we must ensure we output exactly the same textual content (including punctuation, spaces?) as original, but we can reformat with tags.
We need to identify sections: The original has:
- About Pula: (bold colored) then paragraph.
- Then paragraph about Pula description.
- Then paragraph about Pula fast-paced.
- Then heading "At Pula, our culture is defined by our:" (bold colored)
- Then ul list of culture items.
- Then
(empty line)
- Then heading "Duties And Responsibilities:" (colored)
- Then paragraph about Commercial Manager...
- Then paragraph "In this role you'll;"
- Then bold "Expand your networks, influence and Pula’s positioning in the region"
- Then ul list under that.
- Then bold "Business Development"
- Then ul list.
- Then bold "Customer Relationship Management"
- Then ul list.
- Then
- Then heading "How your Role will be broken down"
- Then bold lines with percentages and paragraphs.
- Then
- Then heading "What you need to have to be successful:" (colored)
- Then ul list of requirements.
- Then
- Then heading "What Pula will bring to the table:" (colored)
- Then ul list.
- Then paragraph with bold "To learn more about Pula:" then links.
We need to convert headings to . Which headings? According to instruction: Use for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). So we should treat each bold heading as an . Also "About Pula:" maybe considered a section header? It's like About the Role? Could be . "At Pula, our culture is defined by our:" maybe also a header. "Duties And Responsibilities:" definitely. "How your Role will be broken down" maybe a header. "What you need to have to be successful:" maybe a header. "What Pula will bring to the table:" maybe a header. "To learn more about Pula:" maybe not a section header but could be considered a header? It's more like a call to action. But we can treat as as well? The instruction says use for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). So "About Pula:" could be considered About the Role. So yes.
Thus we will replace each bold heading line with Heading text . Ensure we keep the exact text (including punctuation). The heading text includes trailing colon? In original they have colon after some headings. We'll keep as is.
Now we need to convert paragraphs: any text not inside a list or heading should be wrapped in . Also we need to preserve line breaks? We'll just wrap each block of text that was originally within
tags (excluding those that only contain ) into
. We'll need to parse the original HTML but we can manually produce.
Let's extract the textual content in order.
I'll copy the original text ignoring tags.
