Audit Senior Manager
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Also remove visa sponsorship statement? That's part of qualifications? It's a requirement: "Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for employment-based visa sponsorship now or in the future. KPMG LLP will not sponsor applicants for U.S. work visa status for this opportunity (no sponsorship is available for H-1B, L-1, TN, O-1, E-3, H-1B1, F-1, J-1, OPT, CPT or any other employment-based visa)". That's a qualification/requirement; we should keep it. Also EEO statements are boilerplate; remove them. Also remove "No phone calls or agencies please." etc. Also remove "KPMG recruits on a rolling basis..." etc. Also remove "Los Angeles County applicants: Material job duties..." maybe that's specific but it's about criminal history; might be considered legal boilerplate? It's a specific statement about Fair Chance Act; might be considered legal boilerplate but it's location-specific. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This is legal (Fair Chance). Likely remove. Also remove "Follow this link to obtain salary ranges by city outside of CA:" maybe keep as part of benefits? It's a link; but it's about salary ranges; we decided not to include Pay section. Could we keep the link as part of Benefits? Probably not; it's about salary. Since we are not including Pay, we might drop that sentence. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; dropping that might be considered removing substantive info (salary range link). But we are not allowed to create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does not state actual numbers, just a link. The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state benefits, so we can create Benefits. For Pay, it does not state actual salary, just a link to ranges. That might be considered stating them indirectly? It says "If required, the ranges displayed below or via the URL below are specifically for those potential hires who will work in the location(s) listed." No actual ranges displayed. So we should not create Pay section. We could maybe include a
with the link? But that would be about pay; maybe better to omit as it's not substantive detail (no numbers). The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; the link is substantive? It's a reference to salary ranges. Might be considered substantive. However we cannot create Pay section; but we could embed the link in a
under Benefits? Not appropriate. Could we add a
after Benefits that says "For salary ranges, see: ..."? That would be a Pay-related info but not a heading. The instruction only forbids creating Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It doesn't forbid mentioning pay in a paragraph elsewhere. So we could include a
with the link under maybe a generic "Additional Information" but we shouldn't create a heading for it. However we prefer few substantive sections. Could we just include the link in Benefits? Not ideal.
Better to follow: include sections: Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits. Possibly also "About the role" if there is descriptive paragraph at top. The opening paragraph about KPMG's mission etc could be considered "About the role" or "About KPMG". But instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could have an "About the role" section with the introductory paragraph about KPMG's mission and the role. That seems appropriate.
Thus sections:
About the role

We need to preserve punctuation exactly? Probably fine.

We could split the last into two items but it's okay as one.
Benefits: list items.
Benefits paragraph: "In addition, KPMG is proud to offer a comprehensive, competitive benefits package, with options designed to help you make the best decisions for yourself, your family, and your lifestyle. Available benefits are based on eligibility. Our Total Rewards package includes a variety of medical and dental plans, vision coverage, disability and life insurance, 401(k) plans, and a robust suite of personal well-being benefits to support your mental health. Depending on job classification, standard work hours, and years of service, KPMG provides Personal Time Off per fiscal year. Additionally, each year KPMG publishes a calendar of holidays to be observed during the year and provides eligible employees two breaks each year where employees will not be required to use Personal Time Off; one is at year end and the other is around the July 4th holiday. Additional details about our benefits can be found towards the bottom of our KPMG US Careers site at Benefits & How We Work."
We could turn into list items:
- Comprehensive, competitive benefits package with options for you, your family, and lifestyle
- Total Rewards package includes medical and dental plans, vision coverage, disability and life insurance, 401(k) plans, and personal well-being benefits for mental health
- Personal Time Off per fiscal year (based on job classification, standard work hours, years of service)
- Calendar of holidays observed each year
- Two annual breaks where eligible employees are not required to use Personal Time Off (year-end and around July 4th)
- Additional details available at Benefits & How We Work on KPMG US Careers site
We must preserve all substantive information; we should not lose details like "Depending on job classification, standard work hours, and years of service, KPMG provides Personal Time Off per fiscal year." So we need to keep that detail.
We could keep as prose
for benefits, but instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Benefits is a list; we should use list.
Thus:
Benefits

We should not include the link about salary ranges. Could we include it as a after Benefits? It's not a benefit but about pay. Might be considered extra info. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; dropping that link might be losing substantive info (salary range reference). However we are not allowed to create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does not state actual numbers, but provides a link. Could we include a
after Benefits that says "For salary ranges by city outside of CA, see: https://kpmg.com/us/en/how-we-work/pay-transparency.html/?id=M300AUD_2_26". That would not be a Pay section heading, just a paragraph. That seems acceptable.
Thus after Benefits, add a
with that link.
We must also remove duplicated lines, boilerplate, EEO, etc. Also remove "KPMG offers a comprehensive compensation and benefits package." (duplicate). Also remove "KPMG is an equal opportunity employer." etc.
Also remove "No phone calls or agencies please." etc.
Also remove "KPMG recruits on a rolling basis..." etc.
Also remove "Los Angeles County applicants: Material job duties..." etc.
Also remove "Pursuant to the California Fair Chance Act..." etc.
Also remove "The attached link contains further information regarding KPMG's compliance..." etc.
Also remove "KPMG LLP and its affiliates and subsidiaries (“KPMG”) complies with all local/state regulations regarding displaying salary ranges. If required, the ranges displayed below or via the URL below are specifically for those potential hires who will work in the location(s) listed. Any offered salary is determined based on relevant factors such as
