We need to output HTML fragment only, with headings

for sections: 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 like EEO etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the job posting. Job Title: Marketing & Communications Intern (not to be used as heading). Reports to: Marketing & Communications Coordinator (metadata, can be short p). FLSA Status: Part-time (16 hours/week), Unpaid Schedule: Monday Friday (Flexible hours), In-Person in Downtown San Diego Why this job? includes bullet points: Parking Allotment or MTS Transit Pass, Opportunity to gain firsthand experience in a nonprofit environment, Exposure to external stakeholders, community partners, and civic leaders, Develop professional skills in marketing & communications, and stakeholder engagement, Be part of a mission-driven organization making a visible impact in Downtown San Diego Position Summary: paragraph. Essential Job Function & Duties: with percentages. Required Qualifications, Skills, And Abilities: list. Core Attributes: list. Physical Requirements: list. About The Downtown San Diego Partnership: paragraph. Our Values: list. Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: paragraph. We need to map to allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include. - About the role: could include Position Summary and maybe Why this job? and Reports to? The "About the role" heading is for a brief description of the role. We'll put Position Summary and maybe the "Why this job?" bullet points as part of About the role? But "Why this job?" could be considered Benefits? Actually those are benefits/perks. Could go under Benefits. However Benefits heading only if posting actually states them. It does state Parking Allotment or MTS Transit Pass, Opportunity to gain firsthand experience..., Exposure..., Develop professional skills..., Be part of mission-driven organization. Those are benefits/perks. So we can create a Benefits section with those bullet points. - Responsibilities: Essential Job Function & Duties (marketing and communications support, project management & creative support). We'll put under Responsibilities. - Requirements: maybe Required Qualifications, Skills, And Abilities? That could be Qualifications and Skills sections. The headings Qualifications and Skills are separate. We could split: Qualifications (education/experience) and Skills (specific abilities). But the posting lumps them together. We could put under Qualifications (or Skills). Since we have both headings allowed, we need to decide if we have enough content for each. The posting includes: Interest in Marketing, Mass Communications, Public Relations, or Journalism highly preferred. Previous experience creating content for social media, digital platforms, or marketing communications. Strong writing and copywriting skills... Ability to effectively communicate with upper management and stakeholders. Highly motivated, proactive, organized, detail-oriented, self-starter and team player. Creative thinker who brings new ideas, takes initiative, and is comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment. Strong calendaring, organizational, and document management skills... Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite... Experience using Canva and/or Adobe Creative Suite highly preferred. Experience with photography and editing... Experience with video editing and short-form video content. These are qualifications and skills. Could split: Qualifications: Interest in Marketing..., Previous experience creating content..., Strong writing and copywriting skills..., Ability to effectively communicate..., Highly motivated..., Creative thinker..., Strong calendaring..., Proficient in Microsoft Office..., Experience using Canva/Adobe..., Experience with photography..., Experience with video editing... Skills: maybe Core Attributes list: Creative, Organized, Proactive, Detail oriented, Strong communication skills, Ability to work independently and collaboratively. Physical Requirements could be under Requirements? But we have no heading for Physical Requirements; we could include under Requirements as a subsection? But we must only use allowed headings. Could put Physical Requirements under Requirements as a

or

    . But the instruction: Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have a Requirements heading and include both qualifications and physical requirements inside. However we also have Qualifications and Skills headings allowed; we could use them separately. The instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we should avoid too many thin sections. Perhaps combine Qualifications and Skills into one Qualifications section, and put Core Attributes under Skills? But we have both headings allowed; we could still use them if they have substantive content. Let's see: Qualifications could be the list of interest, experience, writing skills, communication, motivation, calendaring, proficiency, etc. Skills could be Core Attributes (Creative, Organized, Proactive, Detail oriented, Strong communication skills, Ability to work independently and collaboratively). That seems substantive enough. Physical Requirements: we could include under Requirements as a separate

    or

      under Requirements heading. But we already might have Requirements heading for something else? Actually we could use Requirements heading for the combination of Required Qualifications, Skills, And Abilities and Physical Requirements. But then we would also have Qualifications and Skills headings, causing duplication. Better to follow the allowed headings but not overuse. Let's decide to use: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Schedule. Possibly also Requirements? But we have Qualifications and Skills already covering the content. The posting also has "Required Qualifications, Skills, And Abilities" which maps to Qualifications and Skills. So we can skip a generic Requirements heading. The "Physical Requirements" could go under Qualifications or Skills? It's more of a requirement. Could be placed under Qualifications as a bullet. But we have no separate heading for Physical Requirements; we can include it under Qualifications as a bullet. Schedule: we have schedule info: Monday Friday (Flexible hours), In-Person in Downtown San Diego. Also FLSA Status: Part-time (16 hours/week), Unpaid. Pay: Unpaid (so we could include Pay section? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state Unpaid, so we can include Pay section with "Unpaid". Also Schedule section with the schedule details. Benefits we already have. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to ensure we don't include empty or placeholder text. All sections have content. Now we need to format: Use

      for each section heading. Under each, use

      for prose,

      • for lists. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Also remove "Please note this job description is not designed to cover..." maybe we can keep as part of Responsibilities? It's a disclaimer; but it's still substantive? It's a note that duties may change. Could be included under Responsibilities as a note. It's not boilerplate; it's part of job description. We'll keep it. Also remove "This is an unpaid, temporary, volunteer internship and does not create an employment relationship. There is no expectation of wages or future employment.*" This is about Pay; we can incorporate into Pay section maybe. Also remove "Why this job?" heading; we will incorporate its bullet points into Benefits. Now craft content. About the role: combine Position Summary and maybe Reports to? The Reports to is metadata; we could include as a short p under About the role: "Reports to: Marketing & Communications Coordinator". Also FLSA status? That's Pay. So About the role: Position Summary paragraph. Let's write:

        About the role

The intern will observe, assist, and support staff-led activities related to social media, content creation, and marketing collateral, with an emphasis on professional development and skill-building rather than independent responsibility.

The internship is intended to provide exposure to content creation and stakeholder engagement within a mission-driven organization.

        Reports to: Marketing & Communications Coordinator

        That seems fine. Responsibilities: list the two main areas with bullet points. We'll create
        • for each duty. Include the note about duties may change. Thus:

          Responsibilities

          • Marketing and Communications Support (≈50%):

          But we have nested lists; that's okay. Qualifications: we need to list the qualifications from Required Qualifications, Skills, And Abilities (excluding core attributes).
