Assistant General Counsel, Commercial Contracting
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have Responsibilities (list), Qualifications (list), Pay (salary range), Benefits (description), maybe Skills? There's "Exceptional oral, written and presentation skills" etc could be under Skills or Qualifications. We'll treat Qualifications as the list of requirements. Skills maybe separate? The posting includes "Exceptional oral, written and presentation skills with the ability to convey nuanced legal concepts succinctly to firm leaders" which is a skill. Could be part of Qualifications. We'll keep Qualifications section includes that line. We need to not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal. Also remove the link to salary ranges by city? That's maybe part of Pay section? It's a link; we can keep as part of Pay? The instruction: preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. The link is substantive? It's a reference for salary ranges by city. Might be considered part of Pay. We'll keep it as a
with the link. We need to not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual salary range: $265000 to $357000. Also mention "current full market salary range for this job level is disclosed below. This broader range represents potential future income growth..." That's vague but still some content. We'll include Pay section with that info. Benefits: they describe comprehensive benefits package, medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401(k), personal well-being, PTO, holidays, breaks. That's substantive. Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly. No schedule info. So we should not create Schedule section. Skills: Could be separate but we have skills mentioned in Qualifications. Might be okay to not create Skills section if it's covered. But we could create Skills section with the exceptional oral, written, presentation skills. However the instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine skills into Qualifications. Thus sections: About the role (maybe intro about KPMG and the role), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Pay, Benefits. We need to use
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract:
Intro paragraph: "Known for being a great place to work and build a career, KPMG provides audit, tax and advisory services for organizations in today's most important industries. Our growth is driven by delivering real results for our clients. It's also enabled by our culture, which encourages individual development, embraces an inclusive environment, rewards innovative excellence and supports our communities.

If you're as passionate about your future as we are, join our team. KPMG is currently seeking an Assistant General Counsel – Commercial Contracting to join our Office of General Counsel organization."

We should ensure no extra sections like Skills, Schedule. Also ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO, etc. We removed those.
Check for any leftover boilerplate: The text about "KPMG is an equal opportunity employer..." etc removed. Also removed "No phone calls or agencies please." etc. Also removed "Los Angeles County applicants..." etc. Also removed "KPMG recruits on a rolling basis." etc. Also removed "Additional details about our benefits can be found towards the bottom of our KPMG US Careers site at Benefits & How We Work." Actually we kept that as part of benefits? We didn't include that sentence; we could incorporate but it's okay to omit as it's a reference
