Original Posting Date 9/1/2026 Most Recently Posted Date 9/1/2026 - "Principal uses artificial intelligence tools..." etc. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out sections like "Posting Window", "Work Authorization/Sponsorship" maybe? The instruction says remove application instructions. Work Authorization/Sponsorship is not exactly application instructions but could be considered eligibility requirement. It's substantive? It's about eligibility; maybe we keep it? The instruction says "remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should keep eligibility requirements like work authorization? Not sure. It's not exactly application instructions; it's a requirement. Might be okay to keep. But we need to see if we have a section for "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The posting includes "Who You Are" which is qualifications/requirements. Also "Ability to build positive relationships..." etc. So we can map that to a "Requirements" or "Qualifications" section. We need sections: About the role (maybe "What You'll Do"), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. - About the role: Could be the introductory paragraph about the internship program, mission, etc. Could be the "What You'll Do" and company description. - Responsibilities: The duties: provide sales support, account management assistance, intermediary support, assist regional sales offices, learn distribution and support retirement plan business, etc. - Requirements/Qualifications: "Who You Are": pursuing/completed degree, involvement in extracurriculars, interest in sales, preference for sales experience, ability to build relationships, strong communication skills, travel required. - Skills: Could be communication skills, relationship building, etc. Might overlap. - Benefits: Time Off Program (Paid company holidays and any time off required in your state), Pension Eligible No, Internship Stipend $4,000 with tax gross-up, maybe also mention "paid internship", "full time". Also "Work Authorization/Sponsorship" maybe not benefit. - Pay: Salary Range $24 - $24 / hour (non-exempt hourly). Also mention that sales positions eligible for incentives, bonus, total compensation may exceed base salary. So we have pay info. - Schedule: Work full time, first 5 weeks at HQ Des Moines, last 5 weeks at sales office location. Also maybe mention travel required. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual specifics. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no

Sales Internship Program

. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Thus we need to cut out sections like "Posting Window", "Work Authorization/Sponsorship", "Investment Code of Ethics", "Experience Principal" (maybe part of EEO?), "Principal uses artificial intelligence tools..." etc. Also "Original Posting Date" etc. Also "Through your experience, here's what you can expect:" maybe part of Internship Culture? Could be kept as part of Internship Culture. We need to decide what to keep. Let's extract substantive content: - What You'll Do: description of role, duties, locations. - Company description: Operating at intersection..., mission, trusted leader 140 years. - Who You Are: qualifications. - Salary Range Information: pay details. - Time Off Program: Paid company holidays and any time off required in your state. - Pension Eligible: No. - Our Internship Culture: description of program, experiences, mentors, network, events, link. - Through your experience...: bullet points (work alongside experienced professionals, gain career direction, contribute to work..., explore new perspectives...). Could be part of Internship Culture or separate. - Internship Stipend: $4,000 lump sum, tax gross-up. - Location(s): first 5 weeks at HQ Des Moines IA, last 5 weeks at one of respective sales office locations listed above. - Travel will be required (mentioned in Who You Are). We also have "Salary Range Information" includes note about non-sales positions bonus program, sales positions eligible for sales incentives and bonus plan, total compensation may exceed base salary depending on performance, actual compensation based on geographic location, work experience, education, licensure requirements and/or skill level, finalized at time of offer. We need to keep all that. We need to remove duplicated lines: e.g., "The locations we are looking to fill in are: Des Moines, IA Denver, CO Philadelphia, PA Washington D.C." appears maybe only once. Now we need to structure into sections. Potential sections: - About the role: Could combine the introductory paragraph about the internship program and company mission. Might be "About the role" heading. - Responsibilities: duties: sales support, account management assistance, intermediary support, assist regional sales offices, learn distribution and support retirement plan business, etc. - Requirements: qualifications: pursuing/completed degree, involvement in extracurriculars/community, interest in sales, preference for sales experience, ability to build relationships, strong communication skills, travel required. - Skills: maybe communication skills, relationship building. Could be part of Requirements. - Benefits: Time Off Program, Pension Eligible No, Internship Stipend, Paid internship (maybe), Work full time? Actually schedule. - Pay: Salary range $24 - $24/hour, note about incentives/bonus, total compensation may exceed base salary, compensation based on location, experience, etc. - Schedule: Work full time, first
