MFS Investment Management · Boston, MA · 1 mo ago
Hybrid$21–$25/hrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "THE ROLE" then "Responsibilities", then description, then "About The Strategy & Insights Group (SAIG)", then "What We Are Looking For". Also hourly pay rate. Also schedule: "MFS co-op positions are a 6-month commitment, working Monday – Friday (beginning on Wednesday, January 13th through Friday June 25th, 2027), and work between 35-40 hours." So we have schedule and pay. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for: About the role? The "THE ROLE" section includes description of role, maybe we can treat as About the role. Also we have Responsibilities (list of duties). We have "What We Are Looking For" which includes qualifications/skills. Could map to Requirements or Qualifications or Skills. We have Pay (hourly rate). We have Schedule (duration, days, hours). Benefits? Not mentioned besides maybe structured activities (Co-Op New Hire Orientation etc.) Could be considered benefits? But they are part of role description. Probably not separate Benefits section. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, disability contact repeated, etc. Also remove navigation etc. We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include the description paragraphs, the list of structured activities, the schedule details, pay rate, the "About The Strategy & Insights Group (SAIG)" description, the "Corp Comms & Brand" description, and the "What We Are Looking For" bullet points. We need to format as HTML with

headings and
  • for lists,

    for prose. We must not include any markdown fences. Let's decide sections: - About the role: could combine the initial paragraph under THE ROLE: "Joining our team provides opportunities..." plus maybe the description of co-op experience. We'll put that as About the role. - Responsibilities: list of duties? The posting says: "In addition to daily responsibilities, participants will have the opportunity to participate in a series of structured activities designed to enhance their learning experience including:" then list. Also earlier: "Joining our team provides opportunities to share your voice and talents, tackle challenging problems, create solutions and collaborate with dedicated co-workers." That's more generic. We'll treat responsibilities as the list of structured activities plus maybe the daily responsibilities statement. - About The Strategy & Insights Group (SAIG): could be a section "About the Team" or maybe "About the Strategy & Insights Group". Since we have headings limited to predefined list, we could use "About the role" for that? But we already used About the role for role description. Could use "About the team" not in list. But instructions: Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., meaning those are examples, not strict list? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely we should use those exact headings when appropriate. So we need to map content to those headings. If we have content that doesn't fit exactly, we could still use those headings but maybe we can combine. We have content about the team (SAIG). Could fit under "About the role"? Might be okay to include as part of About the role. Or we could create a section "About the team" but not in list; risk of violating instruction? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The "e.g." suggests those are examples, not exclusive. So we can use other headings as long as they are

    . Safer to stick to those examples. Let's try to map: - About the role: includes general description of role, co-op experience, maybe also SAIG description? Could be okay. - Responsibilities: list of structured activities and daily responsibilities. - Requirements: maybe "What We Are Looking For" includes qualifications/skills. Could be Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe also same; but we can avoid duplication. - Skills: maybe list of skills like Microsoft Office, problem solving, etc. - Pay: hourly rate. - Schedule: duration, days, hours. We should not create empty sections. Let's extract specifics: About the role paragraph: "At MFS, you will find a culture that supports you in doing what you do best. Our employees work together to reach better outcomes, favoring the strongest idea over the strongest individual. We put people first and demonstrate care and compassion for our community and each other. Because what we do matters – to us as valued professionals and to the millions of people and institutions who rely on us to help them build more secure and prosperous futures.

Our unwavering commitment to finding the best, most durable investment opportunities is what sets us apart – and our success is grounded in our unique approach, disciplined philosophy and collaborative culture." Then "THE ROLE Responsibilities Joining our team provides opportunities to share your voice and talents, tackle challenging problems, create solutions and collaborate with dedicated co-workers. This Co-op experience provides participants with a meaningful, relevant work experience as part of their academic studies. In addition to daily responsibilities, participants will have the opportunity to participate in a series of structured activities designed to enhance their learning experience including: Co-Op New Hire Orientation Senior Leadership Speaker Series Social & Networking Events Presentation Challenges At the conclusion of this position, co-ops will have increased their knowledge of investing, the mutual fund industry, brand strategy & management, and developed a firm understanding of how brand and marketing work at an asset manager. MFS co-op positions are a 6-month commitment, working Monday – Friday (beginning on Wednesday, January 13th through Friday June 25th, 2027), and work between 35-40 hours. Our program is designed for undergraduate students who are currently enrolled in a co-op program through their college or university and can meet our requirements." Then "About The Strategy & Insights Group (SAIG) As a global investment management firm, MFS is in a unique position to provide global views and insights to our clients based not only on our experience in investing assets around the world, but also from having long-term partnerships with clients of all types and backgrounds.

We'll create sections:

    About the role

    ... (the culture paragraph + THE ROLE intro up to maybe before responsibilities list? We'll include the paragraph about MFS culture and the description of the co-op experience up to "In addition to daily responsibilities," maybe? But we need to preserve all info. We'll split: About the role includes the culture paragraph and the description of the co-op experience (joining our team provides opportunities... This Co-op experience provides participants... At the conclusion of this position, co-ops will have increased their knowledge...). We'll exclude the list of structured activities (that goes to Responsibilities) and the schedule details (goes to Schedule). Also exclude "Our program is designed for undergraduate students..." maybe goes to Requirements. Let's extract: Culture paragraph (first big paragraph) -> About the role. Then "Joining our team provides opportunities to share your voice and talents, tackle challenging problems, create solutions and collaborate with dedicated co-workers." -> About the role. "This Co-op experience provides participants with a meaningful, relevant work experience as part of their academic studies." -> About the role. "At the conclusion of this position, co-ops will have increased their knowledge of investing, the mutual fund industry, brand strategy & management, and developed a firm understanding of how brand and marketing work at an asset manager." -> About the role. Now Responsibilities: list of structured activities: - Co-Op New Hire Orientation - Senior Leadership Speaker Series - Social & Networking Events - Presentation Challenges Also maybe "In addition to daily responsibilities," but we already used that phrase; we could include a sentence: "In addition to daily responsibilities, participants will have the opportunity to participate in a series of structured activities designed to enhance their learning experience:" as intro to list. We'll put that as a

    then

      . Now About the Team (SAIG) maybe we can include under About the role as well, but we already used About the role for role description. Could create a section "About the team" but not in list; risk. Maybe we can incorporate SAIG description into About the role as additional paragraph. That would preserve all info. Then Requirements: "Our program is designed for undergraduate students who are currently enrolled in a co-op program through their college or university and can meet our requirements." plus maybe also the "What We Are Looking For" items that are qualifications/skills. But we have separate Skills section. We could put Requirements: the enrollment requirement. Skills: list of skills from "What We Are Looking For": Assist the VP..., Work with subject matter experts..., Excellent problem solving..., A willingness..., Intellectual curiosity..., Ability to multitask..., Experience working in Microsoft Office products. We could break into bullet list. Pay: hourly rate. Schedule: duration, days, hours. Now we must not include boilerplate EEO etc. Let's craft HTML. We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed. We'll produce:
