Category Management Project Intern (TikTok Shop - US Operation) - 2026 Start
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have headings like "About the team" maybe not listed but similar to "About the role". We'll include sections that have real content.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Preserve all substantive info.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
Let's parse the posting:
- "About the team": paragraph describing team mission, etc. Should be included as a section with heading About the team
and
content. - "Responsibilities": list of duties. Should be
Responsibilities
then- each bullet.
- "Qualifications": includes Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could be combined under Qualifications heading with sub-sections? The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have
Qualifications
then maybe- for minimum and preferred? Could also separate Minimum and Preferred as
- Day‑one access to health insurance, life insurance, wellbeing benefits.
- 10 paid holidays per year.
- Paid sick time (56 hours if hired in the first half of the year, 40 hours if hired in the second half).
- Housing allowance for interns not working 100% remote.
- ... ...
but not allowed? Only h3 for headings. We could embed paragraphs. We need to preserve all substantive info: Minimum Qualifications bullet list, Preferred Qualifications bullet list. We also have "Job Information" with Pay Transparency: compensation description hourly rate $23.75- $23.75 (same). Benefits: day one access to health insurance, life insurance, wellbeing benefits, 10 paid holidays per year, paid sick time (56 hours if hired first half, 40 if second half). Housing allowance for non-remote interns. Also note about Los Angeles County Fair Chance etc. That's legal boilerplate? Might be considered EEO/equal-opportunity? It's a specific local law notice; maybe we should keep? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The Los Angeles County Fair Chance Ordinance is legal/EEO; likely remove. Also the statement about criminal history relationship is also legal; remove. Also "About TikTok", "Why Join Us", "Diversity & Inclusion", "TikTok Accommodation" are boilerplate; remove. Thus we keep: About the team, Responsibilities, Qualifications (minimum & preferred), Pay (compensation), Benefits (including holidays, sick time, housing allowance). Also maybe Schedule? Not mentioned. We need to ensure we don't include sections with placeholder like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now format. We'll output:
About the team
... (the paragraph(s) about team). Need to combine the duplicated sentences? The posting repeats some sentences: "We aim to bring discovery, inspiration, and joy back to shopping by making TikTok the commerce channel of choice for merchants, creators, and affiliates." and later "We aim to bring discovery, inspiration, and joy back to shopping by making TikTok the leading, on-trend commerce platform of choice for brands, creators, and shoppers." Both are similar but not identical; we should preserve both? They are duplicated in meaning but not exact. The instruction: remove duplicated lines. If they are similar but not identical, maybe keep both? Might be considered duplicated content. Safer to keep unique content; we can merge? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. If we merge, we might lose nuance. However the duplicated lines are essentially same mission statement repeated twice. Could be considered duplicated; we could keep one instance. I'd keep one to avoid duplication. The paragraph also includes: "We are an entrepreneurial team, passionate about shaping the future of shopping. With more than 1 billion loyal users globally, TikTok is the ideal platform to deliver a brand new and exciting shopping experience to our users. TikTok is already the place where trends first surface, and where brands, creators, and consumers are already connected in meaningful ways. We are looking for passionate and talented people to join our commercial team in the US, to help build an e-commerce ecosystem that is innovative, secure, and intuitive for our users and partners alike." Then later: "As a Project Intern, you will contribute to impactful short-term projects and gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced, professional environment. This internship offers the opportunity to develop practical skills, apply your knowledge to real-world challenges, and explore your career interests. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, so we encourage you to apply early." That's also part of About the team? It's more about the internship. Could be included in About the team or maybe separate "About the role". But we don't have a heading for About the role; we could treat as part of About the team. We'll combine into a single
with all that info, avoiding duplication. Now Responsibilities: list each bullet. We need to extract bullet points from the responsibilities paragraph: - Support category management and growth initiatives across TikTok Shop’s US marketplace. - Analyze category, seller, product, and campaign performance to identify growth opportunities and key business trends. - Assist with category strategy, planning, and execution for major shopping events and seasonal campaigns, including BFCM and other key promotional moments. - Develop and maintain seller and category performance reports, dashboards, and business updates. - Support seller recruitment, onboarding, engagement, and growth initiatives for priority and high-potential sellers. - Coordinate with cross-functional teams including Seller Operations, Marketing, Campaign, Product, Business Development, and Creator teams to execute category projects. - Conduct market and competitor research to identify emerging trends, consumer preferences, and opportunities for category expansion. - Help manage project timelines, track deliverables, and follow up with stakeholders to ensure projects are executed on time. - Prepare presentations, business reviews, and data-driven recommendations for internal stakeholders. - Take ownership of ad-hoc projects and operational tasks that support overall category growth.

Now Pay: The posting says: "Compensation Description (Hourly) - Campus Intern The hourly rate range for this position in the selected city is $23.75- $23.75." So it's a fixed hourly rate $23.75. We'll create
Pay
The hourly rate for this position is $23.75.
Benefits: "Interns have day one access to health insurance, life insurance, wellbeing benefits and more. Interns also receive 10 paid holidays per year and paid sick time (56 hours if hired in first half of year, 40 if hired in second half of year). Interns who are not working 100% remote may also be eligible for housing allowance." Also note "Benefits may vary depending on the nature of employment and the country work location." That's vague; we might include but it's not specific. The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). The sentence "Benefits may vary depending on the nature of employment and the country work location." is vague; maybe we should omit that line as filler. Keep the specific benefits. Thus Benefits section:Benefits
