Merchandising Intern

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually job description includes sections: Job Summary, What You'll Learn & Experience, Essential Functions, Qualifications, OUR MISSION, VISION, VALUES, About Us, ACCOMMODATIONS, EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY NOTICE (but we must remove EEO boilerplate). Also we have Work Location Details and Work Schedule. According to rules: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to map content to these headings appropriately. The posting includes: Work Location Details (Home Office) and Work Schedule (Hybrid). Those could go under Schedule? Actually schedule is separate heading. Work location maybe part of About the role? But we have no explicit "About the role" heading; we can create one for job summary. The instructions: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those exact headings when appropriate. We need to include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to decide which sections we have content for: - About the role: could contain Job Summary and maybe Work Location Details? The job summary describes the role. We'll put that under About the role. - Responsibilities: could be Essential Functions (list of duties). We'll put that under Responsibilities. - Requirements: could be Qualifications (list). We'll put that under Requirements. - Skills: maybe not explicitly separate; but qualifications include skills. Could combine? But we can create Skills section if we have specific skill list. The qualifications include: Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, detail-oriented, proactive, strong written and verbal communication, ability to build relationships, ability to prioritize, proficiency with Microsoft Office, etc. Those are skills. Could put under Skills. - Benefits: posting does not mention benefits (no mention of pay, benefits). So we should NOT create Benefits section. - Pay: not mentioned, so omit. - Schedule: we have Work Schedule: Hybrid Onsite: Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays; Work from Home: Mondays, Fridays. Also Work Location Details: Home Office - Coppell, TX. So we can put schedule under Schedule heading. We also have sections like "What You'll Learn & Experience" which could be part of About the role or maybe Responsibilities? But we already have Responsibilities for duties. The learning experience could be part of About the role as well. However we must not duplicate content. We could incorporate that into About the role as a paragraph. We also have "OUR MISSION, VISION, VALUES" and "About Us". Those are company info, not required headings. Could we put under About the role? Probably not; but we could omit as boilerplate? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Mission/Vision/Values and About Us are not explicitly listed as boilerplate to remove, but they are generic company info. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep them. But we need to fit them into allowed headings. There's no heading for Mission/Vision/Values or About Us. We could create a section with

but only allowed headings list includes those examples; but we could still use other headings? The instruction: "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. However later: "IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". It doesn't forbid other headings. But to be safe, we could incorporate Mission/Vision/Values and About Us into About the role or maybe a separate section like "About the Company". But not in examples. Might be okay to add a heading like "About the Company". However 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 we should follow the spirit: use those headings for typical sections. Could we treat Mission/Vision/Values as part of About the role? Probably not ideal but acceptable. Alternatively we could create a section with heading "About the Company" using

. Since not prohibited, but the examples list doesn't include it. Might be okay. But we also have ACCOMMODATIONS section. That's specific content. Could we put under Requirements? Not really. Could be its own heading "Accommodations". Not in examples but could be used. We need to decide what to include. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." Accommodations is not EEO; it's a legitimate section about reasonable accommodation. Should we keep? It's substantive. Probably keep. Similarly, we have "OUR MISSION, VISION, VALUES" and "About Us". Those are also substantive company info. Keep. Thus we need to map content to headings. Let's outline: - About the role: Job Summary + What You'll Learn & Experience (maybe combine). Could also include Work Location Details? But schedule separate. - Responsibilities: Essential Functions (list). - Requirements: Qualifications (list). Could also include Accommodations? No. - Skills: maybe extract skill bullet points from Qualifications. But we already have Requirements; maybe we don't need Skills separate if content overlaps. However we could still create Skills with bullet list of skills (analytical, communication, etc.) but that would duplicate qualifications. Better to not create Skills if not distinct. - Schedule: Work Schedule and Work Location Details. - Benefits: none -> omit. - Pay: none -> omit. - Accommodations: separate section maybe heading "Accommodations". Not in examples but okay. - Mission/Vision/Values and About Us: maybe combine under "About the Company". Could use heading "About the Company". Not in examples but okay. We must not repeat job title as heading. Good. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's extract content precisely. Job Summary paragraph: "The Merchandising Intern is a 10-week, hands-on development experience designed for college students interested in building a career in retail merchandising. Based at At Home's Home Office in Coppell, Texas, interns will work alongside our Buying, Product Development, and cross-functional teams on real business priorities while completing a structured Merchandising Internship Learning Path. Interns will learn how customer and trend insights, product development, assortment decisions, retail math, financial performance, pricing, inventory, and execution come together to create the At Home experience. Through a combination of instructor-led training, on-demand learning, hands-on experiences, mentorship, and real-world application, interns will build practical skills they can take with them into their careers. We are looking for students who are energized by great product, curious about what customers love, and eager to learn and make an impact. Interns will contribute as members of their teams and may be considered for full-time opportunities with At Home following graduation." What You'll Learn & Experience: multiple paragraphs. We'll combine into a paragraph or list? It's prose. We'll keep as paragraph(s). Could be multiple

tags. Essential Functions: list of bullet points (starting with "Support the Buying..."). Qualifications: list of bullet points (starting with "Currently pursuing a bachelor's degree..."). Work Location Details: "Home Office - Coppell, TX" Work Schedule: "Hybrid Onsite: Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays Work from Home: Mondays, Fridays" Accommodations: paragraph: "If a reasonable accommodation is required to fully participate in the hiring process, to perform the essential functions of the job, and/or to receive all other benefits and privileges of employment, please contact TMCareCenter@athome.com" Mission/Vision/Values: includes mission statement, vision, values bullet list. About Us: duplicate of EEO statement? Actually About Us repeats the EEO statement again. That's boilerplate duplication; we should remove duplicated lines. The About Us paragraph is same as EEO notice earlier? It says: "When you’re a part of our team, you have the full support of a diverse, close-knit team in our stores. We consider all applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, gender identity and expression, marital or military status. We also provide reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and applicable state and local law. At Home is committed to knitting diversity and inclusion into the fabric of our culture; we respect, appreciate and celebrate the experiences and qualities that differentiate everyone on the At Home team." That's essentially EEO boilerplate. According to instruction, remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should remove the About Us section entirely (since it's EEO). Also the earlier EEO notice after Mission/Vision/Values should be removed. Indeed there is an "EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY NOTICE" block after Mission/Vision/Values. That should be removed. Thus we keep Mission/Vision/Values (since it's not EEO, it's company values). The About Us duplicate is EEO, remove. Accommodations we keep. Now we need to format lists with
