On-siteAccountingFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Why DOWL?" which is about company. Then "Finance & Accounting (Corporate Shared Services)" description. Then "Summary" describing responsibilities. Then "To Be Successful In This Role" (requirements). Then "Essential Duties And Responsibilities Include The Following" (list). Then "Job Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities" (list). Then "Physical Demands and Work Environment". Then "Background and Credit Check". Also benefits mentioned earlier: "DOWL provides a comprehensive benefits package..." and later "We offer professional development opportunities..." etc. Need to extract benefits, pay, schedule if present. Pay not mentioned. Schedule not mentioned. Benefits: health, dental, vision, HSA, FSA, life, AD&D, short/long term disability, dependent care, EAP, 401(k) with discretionary employer contributions for matching, profit sharing, student debt repayment, paid time off (minimum 16 days per year), nine paid holidays, professional development, tuition reimbursement, 401(k) company matching plan, profit sharing, additional contributions for eligible student debt payments, generous paid holidays, personal leave, extended family/medical leave, employee referral bonus program. Also mention "Paid Time Off (PTO) accrues at a minimum of 16 days per year and accruals being on first day of employment." Also "Employees also receive nine paid holidays throughout the calendar year." Also "We offer generous paid holidays, personal leave, extended family/medical leave, and an employee referral bonus program." So we can combine.
We need sections: About the role? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only if posting has real specific content. So we can have:
- About the role (maybe summary of role? Could use "Summary" as About the role). But they said "About the role" as example. We'll use that heading for the summary paragraph.
- Responsibilities: list of essential duties.
- Requirements: "To Be Successful In This Role" (experience, degree, preferred).
- Qualifications: maybe "Job Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities" could be Skills. But they have separate Skills heading. We could put Skills there.
- Benefits: benefits description.
- Pay: not present, so omit.
- Schedule: not present, omit.
We also might include "Physical Demands and Work Environment" maybe as a section? Not in list of headings but could be omitted? The instruction says use those headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use
Physical Demands and Work Environment. The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only if posting has real specific content. So we can have:
- About the role (maybe summary of role? Could use "Summary" as About the role). But they said "About the role" as example. We'll use that heading for the summary paragraph.
- Responsibilities: list of essential duties.
- Requirements: "To Be Successful In This Role" (experience, degree, preferred).
- Qualifications: maybe "Job Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities" could be Skills. But they have separate Skills heading. We could put Skills there.
- Benefits: benefits description.
- Pay: not present, so omit.
- Schedule: not present, omit.
We also might include "Physical Demands and Work Environment" maybe as a section? Not in list of headings but could be omitted? The instruction says use those headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use for section headings (e.g. those). Likely they expect only those headings. However we could include Physical Demands as a section but not in list; maybe better to omit as not required. But we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot drop Physical Demands if it's substantive. But we could incorporate it into a
under maybe "Requirements" or separate section with
Physical Demands and Work Environment. The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't say we cannot use other headings, just gives examples. Safer to include Physical Demands as its own section.
Similarly Background and Credit Check could be its own section.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. There's none.
We must preserve all substantive info.
Let's extract content.

We need to format lists where appropriate.
For Responsibilities: we have list of duties. Use - .
For Requirements: maybe just a paragraph.

then with items.
Now About the role: maybe use the "Summary" paragraph as About the role. Could also include the Finance & Accounting description as part of About the role? But we can treat About the role as a brief description of the role and team. We'll combine the Finance & Accounting description and the Summary paragraph into About the role? Might be too much. Better to have About the role = brief overview of role (maybe the Summary). The Finance & Accounting description could be part of About the role as well (department context). We'll include both in About the role section as paragraphs.
