We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No metadata like Job ID. Remove boilerplate. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro about firm: "Our Firm Sorren is a top 50 national advisory firm ..." This is about the firm, could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" maybe includes firm description and position summary. We'll treat as "About the role" section. - Then "Your Journey" bullet points: team members support the firm by delivering timely, accurate work... This is more about expectations; could be part of Responsibilities or maybe "Your Journey" is like expectations. We'll incorporate into Responsibilities. - Then "Position Summary" heading then "Your Impact" bullet list: list of duties. That's responsibilities. - Then "Your Background Required:" bullet list: required qualifications. - Then "Why Choose Us?" paragraph: about benefits and culture. - Then "What We Offer*:" bullet list of benefits. - Then note about benefits eligibility. - Then copyright and legal boilerplate (remove). We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for About the role (firm description + position summary maybe). Responsibilities (the bullet list under Your Impact). Requirements (the bullet list under Your Background Required). Qualifications maybe same as Requirements? Could combine? But we need separate sections only if we have specific content. We have "Required:" list; that's qualifications. Could treat as Requirements. Skills maybe we have "Proficiency in learning and utilizing audit-related software and tools", "Strong verbal and written communication skills", "Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail", "Accurate mathematical and accounting skills". Those are skills. Could put under Skills. Benefits: we have bullet list under What We Offer*. Pay: not mentioned. So omit Pay section. Schedule: not mentioned (though mentions full-time commitment and flexibility to work beyond regular hours). That's schedule info? It mentions full-time commitment and flexibility to work beyond regular hours. That's schedule info. Could include Schedule section with that detail. It's specific: "Full-time commitment and flexibility to work beyond regular hours to meet team deadlines". That's schedule. So we can include Schedule. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. 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; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading (not present). Remove boilerplate: the copyright and legal text at end. Let's craft sections: About the role: combine firm description and maybe "Your Journey" and "Position Summary" intro? Actually Position Summary heading is present but we should not duplicate as heading; we can incorporate its content under About the role or Responsibilities. The "Position Summary" heading is not one of the allowed headings; we can treat its content as part of About the role (overview) and Responsibilities (duties). The "Your Journey" bullet points are about expectations; could be part of Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Expectations". But we only have allowed headings; we can put them under Responsibilities as they are duties/responsibilities. Thus:

    That seems okay. Responsibilities: list from "Your Impact" bullet points. We need to preserve each bullet exactly. List: - Assist with assigned assurance procedures, including audits, reviews, compilations, and agreed-upon procedures - Help reconcile workpapers to trial balance accounts and maintain neat, complete, and organized documentation - Learn and apply basic concepts of GAAP, GAAS, and other financial reporting frameworks - Assist in determining testing scope, selecting samples, and applying an audit mindset - Support the preparation of draft financial statements and help identify potential issues for discussion - Manage assigned tasks and workload with guidance from supervisors to meet project deadlines - Communicate progress to team members and actively participate in team meetings - Begin developing an understanding of client industries and relevant audit considerations - Participate in team training sessions, independent learning, and firm events to build skills and knowledge - Perform other duties and display flexibility to take on a variety of responsibilities assigned by firm leadership - Meet agreed upon targets to fulfill individual performance and overall firm productivity We'll put in
    • . Requirements: maybe we separate "Required:" list as Requirements. That list: - Currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, or a related field - Understanding of audit standards and ability to adapt to changes - Proficiency in learning and utilizing audit-related software and tools - Strong verbal and written communication skills for effective collaboration - Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail - Accurate mathematical and accounting skills - Ability to follow firm procedures and deliver high-quality work - Full-time commitment and flexibility to work beyond regular hours to meet team deadlines But note the last item about full-time commitment also appears in schedule; we might duplicate. We'll keep it in Requirements as it's a requirement. For Schedule we can note the same or just mention full-time commitment and flexibility to work beyond regular hours. To avoid duplication, maybe we put schedule info only in Schedule section, and remove from Requirements. However the requirement list includes that as a requirement; we need to preserve all substantive information. If we remove it from Requirements, we lose that info. Could keep it in Requirements and also mention in Schedule? That would duplicate. Better to keep it in Requirements and not have a separate Schedule section if it's same. But we could have Schedule section referencing the same info but not duplicate? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Duplication is not prohibited but might be redundant. However we can keep it only once. Since the requirement list includes full-time commitment and flexibility to work beyond regular hours, we can treat that as schedule info and put it under Schedule section, and maybe remove from Requirements? But then we lose the requirement aspect. However the requirement list also includes other items; we could keep the full-time commitment item in Requirements as it's a requirement, and also have Schedule section that repeats it? Might be okay but duplication may be considered summarizing away? Not exactly. Safer to keep it only in Requirements and not have Schedule section because schedule info is covered there. However the instruction says to include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it. If we have schedule content, we should include Schedule section. The posting does have schedule content: "Full-time commitment and flexibility to work beyond regular hours to meet team deadlines". That's specific. So we should include Schedule section with that sentence. We can also keep it in Requirements as a requirement; duplication is okay but we must not invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is not summarizing away; it's repeating. It's allowed? The instruction didn't forbid duplication. It said preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication preserves detail, not summarizing away. So we can keep it in both sections. However we might want to avoid redundancy but it's not prohibited. I'd keep it in Requirements and also in Schedule. Qualifications: maybe we don't have separate qualifications beyond requirements; but we could treat the degree pursuit as qualification. However we already have Requirements covering that. Qualifications could be empty; we should not create empty section. So omit Qualifications. Skills: we have skills list: "Proficiency in learning and utilizing audit-related software and tools", "Strong verbal and written communication skills for effective collaboration", "Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail", "Accurate mathematical and accounting skills". Those are also in Requirements list; but we can still create Skills section with those items. However they'd duplicate. Might be okay but we need to decide if we want to include Skills section. The posting does mention skills explicitly; we can include Skills section with those bullet points. We'll keep them. Benefits: list from What We Offer*: - Generous paid time off - Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus life and disability insurance - 401(k) retirement savings plan - Paid holidays, including a firmwide winter break (December 24 – January 1) - Paid parental leave (available after one year of service) - Mentorship and career development programs - CPA exam support to help you succeed on the path to licensure - Firm-sponsored events and spontaneous team activities - Celebrations to mark milestones like the end of busy season and the holidays - Benefits are available to full-time employees regularly scheduled to work at least 30 hours per week. We'll put as
