for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. Avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay/Schedule/Benefits only if posting actually states them.

Then "Position Responsibilities" list:

- Receives detailed instructions on all work under close supervision
- Work with software tools in your area of expertise

- Receives detailed instructions on all work under close supervision (duplicate)
- Other duties as assigned
"Basic Qualifications (Required Skills & Experience)":
- U.S. Citizenship, U.S. Permanent Resident (Green Card holder) or asylee/refugee status as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3) required.
- Must be currently enrolled in a college or university pursuing a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in a technical or engineering major related to work assignment during the internship.
- Must have a minimum cumulative 3.0 out of a 4.0 GPA or equivalent
- Must be available to work part-time (40 hours/week) for 8-12 weeks
"Other Qualifications & Desired Competencies":

- General quality engineering fundamentals, problem solving, data analysis, drawing interpretation, and basic product and process evaluations
- Completed coursework relevant to major
- UAV or Robotics experience a plus
- Flight test or R/C experience a plus
"Physical Demands":
- Ability to work in an office and R&D environment (Constant)
- Required to sit and stand for long periods; talk, hear, and use hands and fingers to operate a computer and telephone keyboard (Frequent)
"Clearance Level": No Clearance
"The Salary Range For This Role Is AeroVironment considers several factors when extending an offer, including but not limited to, the location, the role and associated responsibilities, a candidate’s work experience, education/training, and key skills."
That's not a specific salary range; it's generic. So we should NOT create a Pay section because no actual numbers or range given. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Benefits: "AV offers an excellent benefits package including medical, dental vision, 401K with company matching, a 9/80 work schedule and a paid holiday shutdown." That's specific benefits. So we can include Benefits section.
Schedule: The posting mentions "Must be available to work part-time (40 hours/week) for 8-12 weeks". That's a schedule detail: part-time 40 hours/week (actually full-time) for 8-12 weeks. Also mentions "9/80 work schedule" in benefits. So we have schedule info: part-time (40 hours/week) for 8-12 weeks. That's specific enough to create a Schedule section? The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state schedule: "Must be available to work part-time (40 hours/week) for 8-12 weeks." So we can include Schedule section.
Pay: Not stated specific range, so omit Pay.
Benefits: we have specifics.
Now sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Basic Qualifications), Qualifications (Other Qualifications & Desired Competencies), Skills (maybe combine?), Benefits, Schedule.
We need to decide which headings to use: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include those with real content.
We have content for About the role (intro paragraph). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (Basic Qualifications). Qualifications (Other Qualifications & Desired Competencies). Skills (maybe we can list specific skills like MS Office, SolidWorks, etc.) but we already have those in Other Qualifications. Could combine. But we could create Skills section listing tools: MS Office, Minitab, Drawing Interpretation, Process Auditing, SolidWorks Inspection, Calipers, Micrometers, etc. However we must not invent or summarize away detail; we can extract from responsibilities and qualifications.
Better to follow the headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Schedule.
We need to avoid duplication: "Receives detailed instructions on all work under close supervision" appears twice; we should keep only once? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplicated lines: we should remove duplicated lines? The instruction says: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove duplicated lines. So we keep only one instance of that line.

We should also mention that it's a 12-week onsite program earlier; but schedule section can capture that.
Now ensure we didn't include Pay section.
Check for any boilerplate: we removed EEO, legal, etc. Also removed "Principals only need apply. NO agencies please." That's application instruction; remove. Also removed "About AV" section? That's company description; could be considered part of About the role? Might be considered boilerplate? It's not explicitly listed as boilerplate to remove, but it's more about company. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The "About AV" paragraph is not those; but it's somewhat promotional. However we already have About the role intro; we could incorporate some of that? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could keep About the role as we have; the "About AV" could be considered extra but maybe we can include it in About the role? The posting already has an intro about the program; the "About AV" is separate. Could we merge? The rule: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep that info somewhere. Could add another paragraph under About the role after the intro. That would be okay.
Thus About the role section could have two paragraphs: first about program, second about AV company.
