Intern - Construction Management
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can map: Position Overview -> About the role. Key Responsibilities -> Responsibilities. Other Requirements + Qualifications -> Requirements (maybe combine). Benefits -> Benefits. Pay -> Pay. About CRH maybe not needed as a heading? Could be omitted or could be About the company but not in list. Probably omit as not required. Also we should not repeat job title. No Job ID heading. Remove boilerplate: EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details from each section.

About CRH: (maybe we can omit as not required heading). But we could include as a short paragraph under maybe "About the company" but not in list. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine About CRH into About the role? Probably not. Better to omit About CRH as it's not required heading and may be considered boilerplate? It's substantive but not in list of headings. The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Including About CRH would add another section. Might be okay but we could omit to keep fewer sections. However we need to preserve ALL substantive information. If we omit About CRH, we lose that info. But maybe we can incorporate that info into About the role or Benefits? Not ideal. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." It doesn't forbid extra sections, but we should avoid thin ones. About CRH is substantive. Could include as a section "About the company" but not in the given examples. However the instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies those are examples, not exclusive list. So we can add About CRH as a heading if we want. But to keep sections few, we could merge About CRH into About the role? Might be odd. Better to include About CRH as its own section, but then we have many sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, About CRH. That's 6 sections. Could be okay.
But we also have Qualifications separate from Requirements? The instruction lists Requirements and Qualifications as separate possible headings. We could combine Other Requirements and Qualifications into Requirements section. That would reduce sections.
Thus sections: About the role (Position Overview), Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities), Requirements (Other Requirements + Qualifications), Benefits (What CRH Offers You benefits), Pay (What CRH Offers You pay). Possibly also About CRH as separate? Could incorporate into About the role? The About the role currently just position overview; we could expand to include company description. But the instruction says "About the role" heading for section headings (e.g. About the role...). So we could put company overview under About the role as well. That would keep sections fewer.
Thus final sections: About the role (includes Position Overview + About CRH description), Responsibilities, Requirements (includes Other Requirements + Qualifications), Benefits, Pay.
We must not include Schedule as no info.
Now we need to format with headings, - for lists,
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's craft.
About the role: combine Position Overview paragraph and About CRH paragraph(s). The About CRH text: "CRH has a long and proud heritage. We are a collection of hundreds of family businesses, regional companies and large enterprises that together form the CRH family. CRH operates in a decentralized, diversified structure that allows you to work in a small company environment while having the career opportunities of a large international organization. If you’re up for a rewarding challenge, we invite you to take the first step and apply today!" plus earlier CRH description earlier in posting: "CRH is the number one asphalt producer and paver, the largest aggregates producer and the second largest ready-mix producer in North America. We are also the number four cement producer in North America and a leader in Canada. CRH operates with a decentralized, diversified structure, letting you work in a small company environment while having the career opportunities of a large enterprise." This is duplicated. We'll include once.
We'll need to avoid repeating duplicated lines. We'll include concise but preserve all info.
