Strategy & Management Associate Program - 2027
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. 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. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes:
- About Bank of America (company overview) – could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is generic; but we have "About Bank of America" and "About The Strategy And Management Program". Could combine into a section "About the role" describing the program. But we must not invent headings not in list? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It suggests those are examples; we can use those headings if appropriate. We should not create other headings not in that list? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely we should stick to those headings. So we can have sections: About the role, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Schedule (maybe), Location? Location not in list but could be part of About the role or Schedule? Might be okay to include location within About the role paragraph. The instruction says we can include a section only when posting has real specific content. So we need to decide.
We have:
- About Bank of America (company description)
- About The Strategy And Management Program (program overview)
- Required Qualifications (list)
- Desired Skills (list)
- Location info: Primary program location is Charlotte, NC. Other locations listed will have limited availability based on business needs. Also mentions Boston, MA, New York, NY.
- Travel: On needs basis
- Full / Part-time: Full time
- Hours Per Week: 40.00
- Shift: 1st Shift
These could go under Schedule (hours per week, shift) and maybe Location as part of About the role? There's no explicit "Location" heading in examples, but we could embed location details in About the role paragraph. The instruction says we can fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Location might be considered minor metadata? But it's substantive. Could include in About the role.
We also have visa sponsorship note, Massachusetts lie detector test law, geographic flexibility note, email domain suggestion. Those are legal/boilerplate; we should remove them per instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The visa sponsorship note is a requirement (cannot consider candidates needing visa sponsorship). That's substantive? It's a restriction. Might be considered legal? It's about eligibility. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Visa sponsorship note is a legal restriction; maybe we should remove? It's not EEO but it's a sponsorship restriction. Might be considered part of qualifications? It says "Please note: Bank of America is unable to consider candidates that will require visa sponsorship now, or in the future, for this specific role." That's a specific eligibility requirement. Could be considered part of Requirements or Qualifications. I'd keep it as a bullet under Requirements? But it's not a qualification; it's a restriction. Could be placed in a short paragraph under Requirements.
Similarly, Massachusetts lie detector test law is legal boilerplate; remove.
Geographic flexibility note: "If offered a full-time opportunity following your internship you will need to be geographically flexible with regards to your work location to be eligible." That's also a condition; could be part of Requirements.
Email domain suggestion: application instruction; remove.
Travel: On needs basis – could be part of Schedule or About the role.
Full/Part-time: Full time – schedule.
Hours Per Week: 40.00 – schedule.
Shift: 1st Shift – schedule.
Thus we can have sections:
- About the role (combining company overview and program overview)
- Requirements (including visa restriction, geographic flexibility, maybe also the required qualifications list)
- Qualifications (maybe the list of required qualifications? Actually they have "Required Qualifications" bullet list. That could be under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide which to use. The posting has "Required Qualifications" and "Desired Skills". So we can map Required Qualifications to a section "Requirements" (or "Qualifications") and Desired Skills to "Skills". Since they have both, we can use Requirements for the required qualifications list, and Skills for desired skills list. Additionally we can include other eligibility notes (visa, geographic flexibility) under Requirements.
Thus:
About the role
Bank of America ... (company overview) ... The Strategy and Management Program is our elite, two-year development training program ... (program overview) ... You will be exposed ... etc.
Then Requirements

Location: Could be included in About the role paragraph: "Primary program location is Charlotte, NC, with limited availability in Boston, MA, and New York, NY."
We must not repeat the job title as heading. We are not.
We must not include Pay/Benefits sections because not present.
We must not include placeholder text.
We must remove legal boilerplate: Massachusetts lie detector test law, email domain suggestion, etc.
We must not include duplicated lines.
Check for duplication: The posting repeats some content: "Our full-time program will accelerate your career A two-year program, designed to develop Bank of America's future leaders by providing an experience to support multiple business units with senior leaders and industry experts During the program you will be embedded in Bank of America's, Strategy & Business Ventures organization, where you will take part in a comprehensive training program while working in a cross-functional capacity to shape the future of the Consumer & Small Business line of business You will drive strategic initiatives across high-visibility and fast-growing areas of the business, including FinTech, Product Innovation, Client Segmentation, Client Experience, Strategic Ventures, Portfolio Management, and Business Intelligence You will learn about and leverage the latest emerging technology (AI, Cloud, Automation, Personalization) to evolve our business". This is somewhat repetitive with earlier program overview. We need to preserve all substantive information, but we can combine and avoid duplication. However instruction says "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That suggests we should not omit details, but we can rephrase to avoid duplication while preserving meaning. It's okay to combine similar sentences as long as we don't lose info.
