for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate.
We need to parse the posting.
Content:
- Intro: "What Your Job Will Be Like We are looking for talented graduate students pursuing advanced degrees in Science, Engineering, and Mathematics fields to join our team. This is an exciting opportunity to engage in impactful educational workforce development initiatives. As part of our team, you will have the chance to participate in advanced research projects, collaborate with and learn from leading experts, and contribute to groundbreaking solutions that have significant implications for national security and scientific progress. On any given day, you may be called on to: Conduct independent research under the guidance of experienced mentors.Design and implement experiments, simulations, or computational models.Analyze complex data sets and interpret results to draw meaningful conclusions.Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to develop innovative approaches to research challenges.Prepare technical reports, presentations, and publications to communicate research findings. Due to the nature of the work, the selected applicant must be able to work onsite."
Thus we have a description and a list of duties. So we can have sections: About the role (maybe intro paragraph), Responsibilities (list of duties). Then Salary Range (Pay). Then Qualifications (We Require and We Desire). Then maybe About Our Team and About Sandia (could be About the organization). But we only have headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can map content accordingly.
- About the role: intro paragraph about opportunity.
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Requirements: maybe the "Must attend the Prairie View A&M Career week event Earned bachelor's degree..." etc. That's qualifications required.
- Qualifications: maybe desired qualifications? But we already used Requirements for required qualifications. Could also have Qualifications for desired? But we can combine required and desired under Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings as given; we can decide to include only those with real content. We have required qualifications and desired qualifications. Could put required under Requirements, desired under Qualifications. Or we could put all under Qualifications and skip Requirements. But we need to follow headings list; we can include both if content exists.
- Skills: maybe list of desired skills: strong analytical, programming language proficiency, communication skills, etc. Could be under Skills.
- Benefits: The posting mentions benefits in About Sandia: "Generous vacation, strong medical and other benefits, competitive 401k, learning opportunities, relocation assistance and amenities aimed at creating a solid work/life balance". Also mentions flexible work arrangements. So we have benefits content.
- Pay: Salary Range section with details about pay based on credit hours etc.
- Schedule: Not explicitly mentioned; there is mention of ability to work up to 40 hours per week during summer, and flexible work arrangements (9/80, 4/10). That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule.
We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content.
We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Thus produce something like:
About the role

This is an exciting opportunity to engage in impactful educational workforce development initiatives. As part of our team, you will have the chance to participate in advanced research projects, collaborate with and learn from leading experts, and contribute to groundbreaking solutions that have significant implications for national security and scientific progress. Due to the nature of the work, the selected applicant must be able to work onsite.

But note we already listed those under Qualifications; maybe we shouldn't duplicate. Better to keep Qualifications as desired qualifications and maybe Skills separate for technical skills like programming. However the desired qualifications already include programming proficiency etc. Could merge. But we need to avoid duplication? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay if it's in original? But we should not repeat same info unnecessarily? It didn't forbid duplication, but better to avoid redundancy. However we could keep Qualifications as desired qualifications and Skills as maybe other skills not covered? But the desired qualifications already cover analytical, programming, communication, passion. So maybe we can skip Skills section. But we need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for Pay, Benefits, Schedule. Pay: we have Salary Range paragraph. Benefits: we have About Sandia paragraph describing benefits. Schedule: we have ability to work up to 40 hours per week during summer, and flexible work arrangements (9/80, 4/10). Also mention onsite requirement. Thus we can have:Pay
At Sandia, we value the important work done by our interns and its contribution to National Security. Because of this, our interns earn competitive pay rates. Our pay structure is based on earned credit hours, classification, and degree level. Your pay rate will be determined during the hire process and included in your offer package. You can view the Intern Pay Rate chart here (https://www.sandia.gov/app/uploads/sites/51/2024/12/Student-Rate-Sheet-2025.docx).
Benefits
Generous vacation, strong medical and other benefits, competitive 401k, learning opportunities, relocation assistance and amenities aimed at creating a solid work/life balance. Flexible work arrangements for many positions include 9/80 (work 80 hours every two weeks, with every other Friday off) and 4/10 (work four ten‑hour days each week) compressed workweeks, part‑time work, and telecommuting (a mix of onsite work and working from home).
Schedule
Ability to work up to 40 hours per week during the summer. The position requires onsite work.
We also have "About Our Team" and "About Sandia" which could be considered About the role? But we already have About the role intro. Could also add an "About the organization" section but not in headings list. So we ignore. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, security clearance details beyond what's needed (we already included security clearance in Requirements). We must not include "Posting Duration", "Job ID", etc. We must not include "Note: If you have not yet started your graduate program, please apply to an undergraduate intern position." That's substantive? It's a note. Should we preserve? It's part of Qualifications We Require. It's a note about eligibility. It's substantive. Should we include it. It's a note. We could include as a list item under Requirements: "If you have not yet started your graduate program, please apply to an undergraduate intern position." That's specific. Also "Note: If you have not yet started your graduate program, please apply to an undergraduate intern position." We'll add. Also "Posting Duration This posting will be open for application submissions for a minimum of three (3) calendar days, including the 'posting date'. Sandia reserves the right to extend the posting date at any time." That's about posting duration; not in headings list; we can ignore. Also "About Our Team" and "About Sandia" content we used for benefits; but there is also descriptive content about mission etc. That's substantive but not fitting headings; we could include under About the role? But we already used About the role for intro. Could we add another paragraph about the team under About the role? The heading About the role is for role description; we could expand it to include team description. But we must not invent headings. We could add a second paragraph under About the role about team and mission. That's okay. Thus About the role could contain two paragraphs: the initial description and the team/mission description. Let's extract About Our Team and About Sandia paragraphs: About Our Team: "Sandia National Laboratories is a premier research and development institution that delivers essential science and engineering solutions to the United States' most pressing national security challenges. Our mission is to ensure the security and reliability of the nation's nuclear deterrent, while also addressing a wide range of energy, environmental, and cybersecurity issues.
