We need to output only HTML fragment, using

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Company description: Southwire Company, LLC is a leader... etc. This is about the role? Could be "About the role" or "About the company". The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use "About the role" heading for company overview and program description. - Location: Youngsville, NC - Shift: May 17th - Aug 6th (that's schedule). So we have schedule. - Pay Rate: $20.00 – $23.00 (Pay) - Job Summary/Objective: description of purpose. - Key Responsibilities: bullet list. - Long Description: Project Summary and Description Of Responsibilities (more details). We need to combine responsibilities. - Qualifications And Experience Requirements: list. - Benefits: list. - Also mention "We Offer 401k with Matching & Pension Plan (Eligible for Pension after 1,000 Hours Worked) Flexible Work Schedules". So benefits. - Also mention "Southwire is an equal opportunity employer..." which is boilerplate to remove. - Also mention "Note: All new interns and co-ops must begin in the summer rotation." Could be part of responsibilities or notes. - Also mention "Ready to explore new horizons..." maybe part of about. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details: company description, program purpose, location, shift dates, pay rate, job summary/objective, responsibilities (including intern assignment length, co-op length, project, collaboration, mentorship, networking, events, community service, impact, rising senior considered for FT), project summary details, description of responsibilities (design, evaluate, source, research), qualifications (GPA, enrollment, transportation, sustainability awareness, team experience, systems thinking, organization, communication), benefits (401k with matching & pension after 1000 hrs, flexible work schedules). Also maybe mention "Southwire offers digital solutions..." but that's company description. We must not include EEO etc. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content for Pay and Schedule and Benefits. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (company overview + program purpose), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly Skills? Could combine skills within qualifications. But we can include Skills if we have explicit skills list: "Strong organization, planning and analytical skills", "Able to communicate effectively, both orally and in writing", "Experience in systems thinking and process management", "Proven working experience in a team environment", "Up-to-date awareness of sustainability issues". Those could go under Skills. However qualifications already includes many of those. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Qualifications and Skills into one section called "Qualifications & Skills". But they gave examples separate. We could still include Qualifications and Skills separate if we have content. But we risk thin sections. Let's see: Qualifications: GPA, enrollment, transportation. Skills: sustainability awareness, team experience, systems thinking, organization, communication. Could be separate but each has a few items. Might be okay. But we need to follow instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They didn't require to use all; just examples. So we can choose. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft:
