Mgr Data Science
for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must include only sections with real specific content. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have salary range, so Pay section is appropriate. Benefits section: we have benefits description. Schedule: not mentioned, so omit. Skills: maybe we can include under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose appropriate headings based on content.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO statement, accommodation request, etc. Also remove duplicated lines (like repeated "The Hershey Company is an Equal Opportunity Employer").
We need to keep the substantive content: Why Hershey paragraph, About The Hershey Company paragraph(s), How will you fit in the big picture? (role description), What will you do? (list of duties), Minimum Education & Requirements (list), Preferred Qualifications (list), Benefits And Perks (list), Pay (salary range). Also maybe include "About The Hershey Company" as a section heading? Could be "About the company" but not in list. The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could map:
- About the role: could combine Why Hershey and About The Hershey Company? But "About the role" is more about the role itself. However we have "How will you fit in the big picture?" which is about role. Could use "About the role" heading for that.
- Responsibilities: for "What will you do?" list.
- Requirements: for Minimum Education & Requirements.
- Qualifications: for Preferred Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe not needed; we could omit if no specific skills section separate. Could embed skills within Requirements/Qualifications.
- Benefits: for Benefits And Perks.
- Pay: for salary range.
- Schedule: omitted.
We must not create sections with filler. So we will output sections only for those we have content.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose, use
.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact wording? Probably we can keep the substance but not necessarily verbatim; but better to keep close.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation request, etc.
We must not include duplicated lines.
Let's extract content:

About The Hershey Company: paragraph about company, NYSE: HSY, industry-leading snacks company, iconic brands, list of brands, commitment to making a difference, founder Milton Hershey, employee value proposition Lead Today. Create Tomorrow, One Hershey mindset, top employer recognition.

We need to use
for section headings. We'll decide sections:
- About the role (could combine Why Hershey and About The Hershey Company? Actually "About the role" is about the role, not company. But we have "How will you fit in the big picture?" which is about role. Maybe we can use "About the role" for that paragraph. Then we need a separate section for "About the company"? Not in allowed headings but we could incorporate into "About the role" or maybe we can omit? The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., meaning those are examples, not exclusive list. So we can use other headings if appropriate, but better to stick to those. However we need to include company description; maybe we can put it under "About the role" as part of role context? Or we could create a section "About the company" but not in list; but it's not prohibited to use other headings, just they gave examples. Safer to use "About the role" for the role description (How will you fit in the big picture?) and maybe include Why Hershey and About The Hershey Company as part of that? But that would mix company info with role. Could also create a section "About the company" but not in examples; but it's probably okay. 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 to be safe we could use those exact headings where applicable and maybe add a "Company Overview" heading if needed. But we might risk violating instruction if we add extra headings not in examples? The examples are not exhaustive; they say e.g., meaning for example. So it's okay to use other headings. However they also say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we should combine where possible.
We could have sections:
- About the role (includes Why Hershey, About The Hershey Company, How will you fit in the big picture?) but that might be too thick.
Better: Use "About the role" for the role description (How will you fit in the big picture?). Use "Responsibilities" for the What will you do? list. Use "Requirements" for Minimum Education & Requirements. Use "Qualifications" for Preferred Qualifications. Use "Benefits" for Benefits And Perks. Use "Pay" for salary range.
We still need to include Why Hershey and About The Hershey Company somewhere. Could we incorporate them into "About the role" as introductory context? Or we could add a section "About the company" but not in examples; but maybe it's okay. However the instruction says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't say we cannot use other headings, but they gave examples. I'd stick to those examples and try to fit company info somewhere else. Perhaps we can put Why Hershey and About The Hershey Company under a
before the first heading, as introductory prose. That would be acceptable: we can have some prose before any heading. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can have introductory paragraphs.
Thus we can start with a
containing Why Hershey and About The Hershey Company combined (or separate
s). Then
About the role
with the paragraph about role fit. Then Responsibilities
with list. Then Requirements
with list. Then Qualifications
with list. Then Benefits
with list (including benefits description). Then Pay
with containing salary range and related details.
