Intern, Government & Community Relations

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Starting Salary Range: $23.00 - $23.00 (so Pay: $23.00 per hour). Also Pay Rate: $23.00 per hour. - Job Type: Full-Time Summer Internship Dates: May 17, 2027 - August 13, 2027. That's schedule (dates). Could be Schedule section. - Position Summary: description. - Responsibilities: list of duties (Essential Functions). That's a list. - Requirements/Qualifications: Job Specifications: Currently enrolled in accredited educational institution in Community Relations, Communications, Public Relations, Political Science or related field with junior or senior status during summer 2027. Must be enrolled in fall classes 2027. Minimum GPA of 3.0. - Physical Requirements / Working Conditions: maybe not needed as a section unless we have a specific heading like "Physical Requirements". Not in list of allowed headings; we could put under Requirements or maybe not include. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can include Requirements and Qualifications separate or combined. Probably combine into Requirements (or Qualifications). We'll include both if content. - Skills: maybe mention Utilize standard office software, etc. Could be Skills. - Benefits: Not mentioned besides maybe nothing. No benefits listed. So we should not include Benefits section. - About BWL: could be About the role? Actually "About BWL" is company description. Could be About the role? The instruction: About the role heading. Could use that for description of role and company? Probably we can put About the role with position summary and maybe about BWL. But we should not repeat job title as heading. We'll include About the role (position summary). Could also include About BWL as separate? Not in allowed headings; maybe we can incorporate into About the role. - Schedule: we have dates. - Pay: we have hourly rate. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications (maybe combine), Skills, Pay, Schedule. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, navigation, cookie, legal, etc. At end there is "THE BOARD OF WATER & LIGHT IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER". Remove. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract content: Position Summary: "The Government & Community Relations Intern will gain hands-on experience supporting government relations, community engagement, public affairs, policy research, stakeholder communications, and event coordination. Working with the Government & Community Relations team, the intern will be assigned a combination of ongoing projects and day-to-day responsibilities that support BWL's relationships with government officials, nonprofit organizations, businesses, community partners, employees, and other stakeholders. Key assignments will include developing and maintaining a government and community stakeholder database; monitoring local government meeting agendas, discussions, and proceedings; conducting policy research and analysis; creating and distributing weekly news briefs; managing and updating the Government & Community Relations SharePoint site; and maintaining sponsorship tracking and impact data. The intern will also provide logistical and staffing support for BWL events and community activities, assist with the administration of the employee volunteer program, and attend external meetings and events with government, nonprofit, business, and community stakeholders alongside members of the Government & Community Relations team. This internship provides meaningful exposure to the day-to-day functions of government and community relations within a public utility environment. Additional projects and assignments will be provided based on departmental priorities and organizational needs throughout the internship. The Government & Community Relations Intern will work under the direction and mentorship of members of the Government & Community Relations team.

Through the internship, the intern will develop an understanding of how a public utility engages with government officials, community organizations, businesses, employees, and the broader community while gaining experience with research, information management, professional communication, and project coordination." That's a lot; we can keep as prose in

. Essential Functions list: many bullet-like sentences separated by periods. We need to turn into

• . Let's list each essential function: - Support ongoing Government & Community Relations initiatives, projects, and activities. - Develop, maintain, and organize a database of government and community stakeholders, including elected officials, government representatives, nonprofit organizations, businesses, and community partners. - Monitor local government meeting agendas, public meetings, proceedings, and other relevant government activities and provide timely updates to the Government & Community Relations team. - Conduct research on local and regional policies, regulations, community issues, and other topics relevant to BWL's operations and community relationships. - Assist with policy research and analysis by gathering information, identifying relevant developments, and preparing summaries for internal use. - Create, compile, and distribute weekly news briefs highlighting relevant government, community, business, and policy developments. - Manage and update the Government & Community Relations SharePoint site, including organizing and maintaining departmental information and resources. - Assist with employee engagement initiatives and the administration of BWL's employee volunteer program. - Maintain community sponsorship records, tracking information, and impact data. - Assist with planning, coordination, logistics, and staffing for BWL events, community activities, and employee engagement programs. - Attend external meetings, community events, and other activities with members of the Government & Community Relations team to gain practical experience in stakeholder engagement and relationship management. - Support communication and coordination with government, nonprofit, business, and community stakeholders as directed. - Utilize standard office software, including spreadsheet, word-processing, presentation, database, and collaboration applications, as well as SAP and other BWL systems as required. - Assist with special projects and provide additional departmental support during periods of increased workload or high-demand seasons. - Participate in continuous improvement efforts related to departmental processes, systems, and data management. - Follow the BWL Safety Manual and use required personal protective equipment (PPE) when performing fieldwork or other duties requiring protective equipment. - Attend required training, safety-awareness programs, and skills-development sessions, including those required by BWL or applicable governmental agencies such as MIOSHA. - Comply with all BWL policies, procedures, work rules, and professional standards. - Maintain predictable and reliable attendance. - Perform other related duties as assigned by the supervisor. That's the list. Job Specifications: "Currently enrolled in an accredited educational institution in Community Relations, Communications, Public Relations, Political Science or related field with junior or senior status during the summer of 2027.Must be enrolled in fall classes 2027.Minimum GPA of 3.0." We can split into sentences. Physical Requirements / Working Conditions: we could include under Requirements maybe but not required headings. Since we have allowed headings: Requirements, Qualifications. Could put educational requirements under Requirements, and physical under Qualifications? But Qualifications often includes skills/experience. However we have no explicit skills beyond software usage. Could treat "Utilize standard office software..." as Skills. Thus: - Requirements: Currently enrolled in an accredited educational institution in Community Relations, Communications, Public Relations, Political Science or related field with junior or senior status during the summer of 2027; must be enrolled in fall classes 2027; minimum GPA of 3.0. - Qualifications: maybe none beyond that; but we could put physical requirements under Qualifications? Might be better to not create Qualifications if no specific content besides physical requirements. But we have physical requirements content; we could put under Requirements as well. However we need to avoid filler. Physical requirements are substantive. Could create a section "Requirements" and include both academic and physical. Or we could have "Requirements" for academic, "Qualifications" for physical. Let's decide: Use Requirements for academic/enrollment/GPA. Use Qualifications for physical requirements and maybe skills? But skills we have separate. Better: Requirements: academic. Qualifications: physical requirements. Skills: software usage. Pay: $23.00 per hour. Schedule: Full-Time Summer Internship, May 17, 2027 - August 13, 2027. About the role: position summary paragraph. We also have "About BWL" description; could incorporate into About the role or maybe separate "About BWL" not allowed heading. We'll incorporate into About the role after position summary. Thus About the role: combine position summary and About BWL description. Let's craft HTML:

  About the role

  Position summary: ...

  About BWL: ...

  But we need to avoid repeating job title as heading; fine. Now produce HTML fragment only. Check for any boilerplate: remove EEO line, remove "Thank you for your interest in the BWL..." introductory fluff? That's not substantive? It's generic thank you; we should remove as it's not substantive about job. Also remove "Starting Salary Range: $23.00 - $23.00" maybe redundant with Pay Rate; we can keep Pay. Also remove "Job Type: Full-Time Summer Internship Dates: May 17, 2027 - August 13, 2027 Pay Rate: $23.00 per hour." We'll incorporate into Schedule and Pay. Now produce final HTML. Let's write:
