We need to produce HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: "About the Team" (maybe "About the role"?). There's "Job Description" then "About the Team". Then "Position Overview Essential activities:" which is responsibilities. Then "The Ideal Candidate" which includes qualifications, skills, etc. No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not include those sections. Also we should not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Investment Risk Intern"? Not explicitly given but implied. We'll not add heading for it. We need to preserve all substantive information. Remove boilerplate: The initial paragraphs about SWIB mission etc. That's substantive? It's about organization but not directly job description. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Should we keep the mission description? It's part of posting but not job-specific. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The mission description is not boilerplate; it's organizational info. Should we keep? Likely yes, as it's substantive. But we need to format into sections. The mission description could go under a heading like "About the organization" but we only allowed specific headings list. The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples, but we should use those headings when appropriate. It also says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". So we can create sections like About the role (maybe the "About the Team" part). Responsibilities (Position Overview). Requirements (maybe education/degree). Qualifications (maybe CFA etc). Skills (programming, SQL). Benefits, Pay, Schedule only if present. We need to decide how to map content. Let's extract: About the Team: description of Risk Management Division, its functions, reporting line. Position Overview Essential activities: list of tasks (understand business, develop knowledge, work on projects related to investment risk management reporting and processes, develop/update procedures and controls, design risk report templates, produce accurate risk reports, support daily investment-risk monitoring, ad-hoc risk analysis projects ex-post/ex-ante). The Ideal Candidate: bullet list of requirements: - Ability to work in Madison, WI for an approximate 10-week period beginning late May/early June 2027. - An advanced degree in finance, computer science, math, statistics, or related field. - CFA/FRM/PRM will be a plus. - Work experience related to risk analytics or investment risk management work supporting risk systems will be a plus. - Knowledge of risk systems (including FactSet, Aladdin, Risk Manager) is desirable. - Experience in ideally gained at the multi-asset level within a buy side investment manager. - Experience in working with/understanding the various lifecycles of data management, extraction, loading, transformation to its applications in risk measurement and reporting. - Working knowledge in composing SQL queries and handling large structured and financial data sets. - Working knowledge of programming skills in Python, VBA etc. will be a plus. - Quantitative and statistical analysis skills is a plus. - Excellent verbal and written communication skills - An ability to be adaptive and thrive in a fast-paced, changing environment - Superb work ethic, attention to detail, team orientation, and commitment to excellence - Team player - ability to work independently as well as work as part of a team. - Flexible - ability to work in a rapidly changing environment and to tight deadlines. We also have earlier paragraphs about SWIB mission etc. Could be placed under a heading like "About the organization" but not in allowed list. Could we put under "About the role"? That seems off. Maybe we can create a section "About the organization" but not in list; instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The "e.g." suggests those are examples, not exclusive. But safer to stick to those headings. However we could incorporate the mission description into a

before any headings, as general info. The instruction: "Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences." So we can have a leading

with the mission description, then headings. Thus structure:

About the Team

with content: description of Risk Management Division. Then

Responsibilities

with list of essential activities. Then

Requirements

maybe for education and location/duration? Or we could split: Requirements (education, location/duration) and Qualifications (CFA etc) and Skills (technical). But we need to avoid thin sections. Let's see: we have education, location/duration, CFA/FRM/PRM plus, work experience plus, knowledge of risk systems desirable, experience multi-asset buy side, data lifecycle experience, SQL, programming, quantitative stats, communication, adaptability, work ethic, team player, flexible. We could group: Requirements: education, location/duration, work experience (risk analytics), knowledge of risk systems, experience multi-asset buy side, data lifecycle. Qualifications: CFA/FRM/PRM plus. Skills: SQL, programming, quantitative stats, communication, adaptability, work ethic, team orientation, flexibility. But we need to ensure we don't create sections with filler. All have content. Let's decide: - About the Team (h3) - Responsibilities (h3) - Requirements (h3) covering: Ability to work in Madison, WI for 10-week period; Advanced degree in finance, computer science, math, statistics, or related field; Work experience related to risk analytics or investment risk management work supporting risk systems; Knowledge of risk systems (FactSet, Aladdin, Risk Manager); Experience ideally gained at multi-asset level within a buy side investment manager; Experience in working with/understanding data lifecycle. - Qualifications (h3) covering: CFA/FRM/PRM will be a plus. - Skills (h3) covering: Working knowledge of SQL queries and handling large structured/financial data sets; Working knowledge of programming skills in Python, VBA etc.; Quantitative and statistical analysis skills; Excellent verbal and written communication skills; Ability to be adaptive and thrive in fast-paced changing environment; Superb work ethic, attention to detail, team orientation, commitment to excellence; Team player - ability to work independently as well as part of a team; Flexible - ability to work in rapidly changing environment and to tight deadlines. We could also include "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule" only if present; not present, so omit. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. We must use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for each section that is a list, we need
    • . For prose, use

      . Thus: - About the Team: likely prose (description). Could be a

      . - Responsibilities: list of essential activities (multiple bullet points). Use

      • . - Requirements: list of items. Use
        • . - Qualifications: list (maybe just one item). Use
          • . - Skills: list of items. Use
            • . Make sure to preserve all details exactly as in posting, but we can rephrase slightly? Must not invent or summarize away detail. We should keep the exact phrasing where possible. Use the text as is. Let's copy the exact sentences. About the Team paragraph: "Our Risk Management Division will assess, evaluate, and monitor both Investment Risk, Counterparty Risk, Liquidity Risk, and Operational Risk, and establish dashboards of key risk metrics to report to Executive Director/Chief Investment Officer (ED/CIO), Investment Committee and Supervisory Board. This division will report directly to the ED/CIO. The team is responsible, through strong collaboration, for assessing, monitoring, reporting, and evaluating risks throughout the organization." We'll put that in a

              . Responsibilities: The list from "Position Overview Essential activities:" includes: - Understand the Investment Management business and develop knowledge of the investment management portfolios/strategies, investment processes and Risk management processes. - Investment Risk Intern will work on projects related to investment risk management reporting and processes to ensure consistency and accuracy. - Intern will work to develop and update procedures and controls for the investment risk function. - Intern will work to design risk report templates and produce accurate risk reports for the Investment Committee and support daily investment-risk monitoring. - Intern will work to on ad-hoc risk analysis projects on an ex-post and ex-ante basis. Note there is a typo "work to on". We'll keep as is. We'll make each a
