Equipment Services Fleet Management Intern

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections present: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (or Preferred Qualifications?), Benefits? The posting includes Schedule, Duration, About the Role, Key Responsibilities, Preferred Qualifications, What You’ll Gain, Minimum Qualification Requirements. Also Bureau/Division, Location, Schedule, Duration are metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. We should not repeat job title. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have: - About the Role: paragraph(s) describing role. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Preferred Qualifications: list. - What You’ll Gain: list of gains (maybe bullet list). - Minimum Qualification Requirements: single sentence. - Schedule: given: Up to 20 hours/week during school year; up to 40 hours/week during breaks (flexible around class schedules). This is schedule info; we should include a Schedule section if posting actually states them. Yes schedule is given. So we need a Schedule section with that content. - Duration: Summer with option to extend into academic year. That's duration info; we could include a Duration section? The instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Duration is given. Should we include a Duration heading? The list of allowed headings includes Schedule, Benefits, Pay, etc. Duration is not listed as a standard heading but we could still use

for any section heading? The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It gives examples but not exhaustive; we can use other headings if needed? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect only those headings. Duration maybe not needed as separate; could be folded into About the role or a short paragraph. But we have schedule and duration both given; we could combine them in a Schedule section? Or we could have a Schedule section and mention duration within that paragraph. However they said "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". Duration is specific content; but they didn't list Duration as an example heading; but we could still use

for Duration? Might be okay but safer to follow examples: maybe we can put Duration under About the role or as a separate

after About the role. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." Duration is not minor metadata; it's substantive. But they didn't give a heading for Duration; maybe we can treat it as part of About the role or as a separate

without heading. However they said "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests we should only use those headings; other headings not needed. So we should not create a Duration heading. Instead we can include duration info in a paragraph after About the role or within About the role. Similarly, Bureau/Division and Location are metadata; fold into short

or drop. We'll include a short paragraph with that info. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present. We must not repeat job title. We must output only HTML fragment. Thus structure:
