for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where posting has real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Must preserve all substantive info. Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting includes: "We offer a competitive hourly rate of $18.50 per hour." That's Pay. Also "School credit is optional, and documentation can be provided if needed." That's maybe Benefits? Also "No relocation assistance is available." That's maybe Benefits. Also "Our interns are onsite and in person based in either the New York or the Los Angeles office." That's maybe Schedule? Actually schedule: "Scheduled Weekly Hours: Must be available to work in person 3 days per week for the duration of the internship". That's Schedule. Also "Program Timeline: Monday, January 11, 2027 - Friday, May 21, 2027". That's also schedule? Could be part of schedule. Also "Application Deadline: October 7, 2026 @ 11:59 pm EST" maybe not needed as it's application instruction; we should remove application instructions. The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should drop deadline, how to apply, etc. Also "To apply, submit your resume..." remove. Also "Due to high application volumes..." remove. Also "All applications must be submitted through our online job site..." remove.
We need to keep substantive info: description of internship, what they'll gain, what makes it different, what you'll gain, etc. That could go under About the role or Responsibilities? The posting includes: "We are excited to announce that we are now accepting applications for Spring 2027 interns in NY & LA. NEON internships are built around real work, the kind that actually appears in the world and moves the needle for films we believe in. For students who want to understand how independent film really works from the inside, there's no better place to build meaningful connections and get mentored by people who genuinely love what they do. We're looking for curious, driven students who are excited to dive into the world of independent film, particularly in the realm of distribution, and who are ready to contribute from day one. Whether your interests lie in marketing, publicity, sales, acquisitions, or distribution, we'll place you where your skills and passions can shine. This program is designed to empower you to highlight your talents while building a solid foundation for our future careers. This internship is part of NEON's Undergraduate Internship Program, which gives you more than a single-team experience. Beyond working closely with your assigned team, you'll take part in structured programming, get cross-functional exposure across the company, and go through professional development alongside a cohort of fellow interns. What makes the NEON internship different: Dive Deep — Get practical experience across film distribution, from marketing and publicity to acquisitions, digital distribution, and theatrical salesFind Your Fit — We tailor your internship to your interests, placing you on projects that actually inspire youBecome Part of the Team — You'll work alongside industry veterans who are serious about mentoring the next generation What you'll gain: Hands-on industry experience, behind-the-scenes insight into how independent film really works, professional connections that outlast the summer, and the confidence to take on whatever comes next. As a NEON intern, you'll have the opportunity to be mentored by industry professionals who are passionate about nurturing the next wave of filmmakers and industry innovators."
That's a lot of prose. Could be under About the role (overview) and Responsibilities? There's no explicit responsibilities list but we can infer duties: contribute to distribution, marketing, publicity, sales, acquisitions, etc. However we must not invent detail. We can only include what is explicitly stated. The posting says: "Whether your interests lie in marketing, publicity, sales, acquisitions, or distribution, we'll place you where your skills and passions can shine." That's a statement about placement. Also "Get practical experience across film distribution, from marketing and publicity to acquisitions, digital distribution, and theatrical sales". That's a description of experience. Also "You'll work alongside industry veterans". Also "take part in structured programming, get cross-functional exposure across the company, and go through professional development". Also "What you'll gain: Hands-on industry experience, behind-the-scenes insight into how independent film really works, professional connections that outlast the summer, and the confidence to take on whatever comes next." Also "As a NEON intern, you'll have the opportunity to be mentored by industry professionals". So we can put these under Responsibilities (what you'll do) and maybe Benefits (what you'll gain). But we need to follow instruction: Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to identify lists.
We have list of "What makes the NEON internship different:" with three bullet-like items: Dive Deep — Get practical experience across film distribution, from marketing and publicity to acquisitions, digital distribution, and theatrical sales; Find Your Fit — We tailor your internship to your interests, placing you on projects that actually inspire you; Become Part of the Team — You'll work alongside industry veterans who are serious about mentoring the next generation.
Also "What you'll gain:" list: Hands-on industry experience, behind-the-scenes insight into how independent film really works, professional connections that outlast the summer, and the confidence to take on whatever comes next.
Also "Requirements" section: "To be eligible, you must be currently enrolled in an accredited college or university." Then "What we're looking for:" list of items: A genuine passion for film and entertainment. You follow the industry, know the titles, and have opinions; Curiosity and initiative — you ask good questions, pick things up quickly, and don't wait to be told what to do; Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with an ability to think analytically; Excellent organizational skills and sharp attention to detail — you can juggle multiple tasks without dropping the ball; Proficiency in Google Suite and Microsoft Excel; A collaborative, low-ego mindset, you work well with others and make the team better; Cultural fluency — you're plugged into what's happening in film, media, and the broader cultural conversation; Comfort with social media platforms and familiarity with the creator landscape; Strong research skills and the ability to synthesize information quickly; A proactive approach to problem-solving, when something isn't working, you figure out why and fix it; Prior internship or work experience in film or entertainment is a plus, and we strongly encourage those candidates to apply.
Also "We're committed to building a diverse and inclusive work environment." That's EEO boilerplate; we should remove EEO lines. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should drop the diversity statement and EEO lines.
Also "If you're smart and good at what you do, come as you are!" That's also EEO-ish; remove.
Also "School credit is optional, and documentation can be provided if needed." That's a benefit? Could be under Benefits.
Also "No relocation assistance is available." That's also a note about benefits (lack thereof). Might be considered a benefit statement but it's negative; we could include under Benefits as a note? The instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. "No relocation assistance is available." is specific content. So we could include under Benefits.
Also "Our interns are onsite and in person based in either the New York or the Los Angeles office." That's location; could be under Schedule? Not exactly schedule. Could be under About the role? Might be better as a short paragraph under About the role.
Also "Program Timeline: Monday, January 11, 2027 - Friday, May 21, 2027" and "Scheduled Weekly Hours: Must be available to work in person 3 days per week for the duration of the internship". That's schedule details.
Also "We offer a competitive hourly rate of $18.50 per hour." That's Pay.
Thus sections we can include:
- About the role (overview paragraph)
- Responsibilities (maybe list of duties: get practical experience across film distribution, work on projects, structured programming, cross-functional exposure, professional development, mentorship)
- Requirements (eligibility: currently enrolled in accredited college/university)
- Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements? But we have a list of what we're looking for; could be Qualifications or Skills. The instruction says use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to use. We have eligibility requirement (currently enrolled). That's a Requirement. Then we have a list of desired attributes/skills: passion for film, curiosity, initiative, communication, organizational, proficiency in Google Suite/Excel, collaborative mindset, cultural fluency, comfort with social media, research skills, proactive problem-solving, prior experience a plus. Those could be Qualifications or Skills. The instruction says we can have both Qualifications and Skills sections if content exists. We could split: Qualifications: currently enrolled; Skills: the list of attributes. Or we could put all under Requirements. But better to follow guidance: Use headings for each if there is real specific content. We have both eligibility and skill list. So we can have Requirements (eligibility) and Skills (the list). Qualifications maybe not needed unless we have separate qualifications like degree etc. Not present. So we omit Qualifications heading.
- Benefits: list: school credit optional (documentation can be provided), no relocation assistance, maybe also mention "competitive hourly rate"? That's Pay, not Benefits. Also maybe "professional connections that outlast the summer" is more like what you'll gain (could be Benefits). But we already have a "What you'll gain:" list; that could be Benefits. However the instruction says use Benefits heading for benefits. The "What you'll gain:" list is basically benefits. So we can put that under Benefits. Additionally we have school credit optional and no relocation assistance as additional benefits notes.
- Pay: hourly rate $18.50.
- Schedule: program timeline and weekly hours.
We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have concrete info.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We need to use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all the specifics: e.g., "Get practical experience across film distribution, from marketing and publicity to acquisitions, digital distribution, and theatrical sales". Must keep that exact phrase? We can keep as is but we can break into list items.
We need to be careful not to lose any detail. Let's extract all substantive sentences.
