We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 for headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Key content: - Intro: "Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. Count on us. Our "we-care" culture is more than just a motto; it's a promise. From day one, we prioritize your growth, well-being, and success. You can count on us to support your career journey and help you achieve your professional goals. Join us." This is generic but could be "About the role"? Actually it's about company culture. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can use About the role for introductory description. - Then: "Our Tax Operations and Innovation team focuses on ensuring the tax department has the technology solutions and processes to fulfill their critical business needs. We align business goals and modern technologies to help tax practitioners create measurable value across a variety of commercial industries including manufacturing & distribution, real estate & construction, business & industrial services, private equity, and wealth management." - Then: "Your role. Role You can look forward to a broad range of projects that will deepen your knowledge of public accounting and how technology plays a crucial role in serving clients in a diversity of industries. Your experience may include, but will not be limited to:" then bullet list of duties. List items: - Participate in the development and implementation of a tax technology strategy/roadmap to automate, streamline, and standardize the firm’s tax operations. - Assist in developing low to no-code technology solutions for the tax department. - Collaborate with Tax Subject Matter Experts to design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain tools and templates leveraged by engagement teams. - Work closely with individuals across the tax department to understand their needs and help develop technology solutions. - Gain an understanding of the firm's technology stack and usage, along with tax processes. - Analyzing technology vendors and their products to help the tax department make informed investment decisions. - Participating in strategic research projects on advanced technology. These are responsibilities. Then "The Qualifications." heading then list: - Detail-oriented leader with problem-solving, communication, and analytical skills. - Pursuing a Bachelor’s degree with an emphasis in accounting, accounting information systems; or a Master’s degree in accounting or tax. - Academic success (a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0). - On track to complete the requisite degree and supporting credits to sit for the CPA exam, and to successfully obtain your CPA license in the state in which you will be working. - Intermediate Excel skills preferred. - Previous experience with Power BI, Power Automate, APIs, and SQL a plus. - This is a non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week. - This position may require some local or national travel. These could be Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. We need to map. We have sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. The posting says "The Qualifications." then list includes skills like Excel, Power BI etc. Could treat as Qualifications (education, GPA, CPA track) and Skills (Excel, Power BI etc). But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Qualifications and Skills into one "Qualifications" section with both education and skills. Or separate if content sufficient. We also have Benefits: later: "We are pleased to offer eligible staff a robust benefits package. Eligibility and contribution requirements for some of these benefits vary based on the number of hours staff work per week. Highlights include health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance. In addition to this, eligible staff are able to take advantage of our Flexible Time Off and various pre-determined holidays, as well as a 401(k) plan, flexible benefits plans, business-related travel expense, lodging, and meal reimbursement for business-related use. A pension plan is also available for eligible administrative and paraprofessional staff. A discretionary bonus plan is available for eligible staff. Plante Moran also offers some contingent staff positions the option to elect health insurance in addition to limited paid sick time." That's benefits content. Pay: "The compensation range reflects the base salary we reasonably expect to pay for this position across our offices in the following regions: CO, IL, OH, and MA. Please review the position description for the applicable geographic location. Generally, experienced hires are not hired at or near the maximum salary range, as compensation decisions take into account a wide variety of factors, including but not limited to: responsibilities, education, experience, knowledge, skills, and geography. For early career roles, including campus hires, we offer standardized, market-based starting salaries among individuals within the same hiring group. This approach ensures fairness and reflects current industry benchmarks for entry-level talent. Under Colorado’s Job Application Fairness Act, you have the right to redact, from any documents that you submit in connection with your application, information that identifies your age, date of birth, or dates of attendance at or graduation from an educational institution. Should you wish to exercise your right to redact such information, please redact it prior to submitting documentation. The compensation range for this role in CO, IL, OH, and MA is: $33.00 - $36.00" Thus we have pay range: $33.00 - $36.00 (presumably hourly). So we can include Pay section with that. Schedule: Not explicitly given besides "may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week" and "flexibility and balance while staying true to our principally in-person model." Also "Workplace for Your Day" model. Could infer schedule: flexible, primarily in-person, may exceed 40 hours. But we should only include Schedule if posting actually states them. It does mention flexible model, but not explicit schedule like "full-time", "part-time". It mentions "may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week." That's about hours, could be schedule. However we need to avoid filler like "varies". The phrase "may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week" is specific enough? Might be considered schedule info. But we also have "Plante Moran enjoys a “Workplace for Your Day” model which, simply put, means we strive for flexibility and balance while staying true to our principally in-person model." That indicates flexible schedule. Could be schedule section. But we need to decide: include Schedule only if real specific content. The posting does mention flexibility and in-person model, and exceeding 40 hours. That's somewhat specific. I'd include Schedule with a brief paragraph summarizing: flexible Workplace for Your Day model, primarily in-person, may require >40 hours. Now About the role: we have introductory paragraphs about culture, team focus, etc. Could be About the role. Responsibilities: the bullet list. Qualifications: education, GPA, CPA track, maybe also skills? But we have skills separate. We could have: - About the role (intro + team description) - Responsibilities (list) - Qualifications (education, GPA, CPA track) - Skills (Excel, Power BI, Power Automate, APIs, SQL) - Benefits (list) - Pay (range) - Schedule (flexible model, primarily in-person, may exceed 40h) We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, application instructions, etc. Remove those. We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like industries list, etc. Let's extract each piece. About the role: combine: "Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. Count on us. Our "we-care" culture is more than just a motto; it's a promise. From day one, we prioritize your growth, well-being, and success. You can count on us to support your career journey and help you achieve your professional goals. Join us. Our Tax Operations and Innovation team focuses on ensuring the tax department has the technology solutions and processes to fulfill their critical business needs. We align business goals and modern technologies to help tax practitioners create measurable value across a variety of commercial industries including manufacturing & distribution, real estate & construction, business & industrial services, private equity, and wealth management." That seems good. Responsibilities: bullet list as above. Qualifications: list: - Detail-oriented leader with problem-solving, communication, and analytical skills. - Pursuing a Bachelor’s degree with an emphasis in accounting, accounting information systems; or a Master’s degree in accounting or tax. - Academic success (a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0). - On track to complete the requisite degree and supporting credits to sit for the CPA exam, and to successfully obtain your CPA license in the state in which you will be working. That's qualifications. Skills: - Intermediate Excel skills preferred. - Previous experience with Power BI, Power Automate, APIs, and SQL a plus. Also maybe "non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week." That's more about schedule/employment type. Could go under Schedule. But we also have "This position may require some local or national travel." That could be under Responsibilities or maybe a separate note but we can include under Responsibilities as an extra bullet. We need to preserve all substantive info, so include travel. Add to Responsibilities bullet: "This position may require some local or national travel." Also "This is a non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week." That's schedule. Now Benefits: list as per text. We need to capture all benefits highlights: - health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance. - Flexible Time Off and various pre-determined holidays. - 401(k) plan. - flexible benefits plans. - business-related travel expense, lodging, and meal reimbursement for business-related use. - pension plan for eligible administrative and paraprofessional staff. - discretionary bonus plan for eligible staff. - contingent staff positions option to elect health insurance in addition to limited paid sick time. We should keep as list. Pay: "$33.00 - $36.00" (hourly). Also mention that compensation range reflects base salary across CO, IL, OH, MA. Could include that context. Schedule: include: - Plante Moran enjoys a “Workplace for Your Day” model which strives for flexibility and balance while staying true to a principally in-person model. - This is a non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week. We could also mention that face-to-face interactions are paramount but flexible. Now we need to output HTML fragment with h3 headings and ul/li for lists, p for prose. We must not include empty sections. Let's craft. Structure:
