for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
We need to parse the posting.

- About Aston Carter (company description) - but we need to remove boilerplate? The instructions: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "About Aston Carter" section is not exactly boilerplate but could be considered company description; but we need to preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. However, we might consider that as part of the posting but not required? The instructions: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We can include an "About the company" section if we want, but not required. The headings list includes: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. They didn't list "About the company". So we likely should not create a section for that unless we map it to one of those headings. The "About Aston Carter" is more about the staffing agency, not the role. Could be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO etc. But it's still somewhat generic. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This is not exactly those. However, we might decide to omit it to keep sections few and substantive. The posting already has a lot of content; we can include the essential parts: About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe combine Requirements and Qualifications?), Skills (maybe Excel skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to avoid duplication.
We need to decide which headings to use. The posting includes:
- Intro / About the role: "Kickstart Your Accounting Career with a Growing Organization Our client is seeking an Accounts Receivable Associate to join a large, collaborative accounting team at its Melville headquarters. This is an excellent opportunity to build your accounting and finance skill set while working alongside experienced professionals in a fast-paced, growth-oriented organization. Candidates with strong Excel skills, attention to detail, and prior office experience are encouraged to apply."
That's suitable for an "About the role" section.
- Responsibilities: The "What You'll Do" list.
- Qualifications: The list under "Qualifications". Could also include "Requirements" but we can combine.
- Skills: The posting mentions strong Excel skills, VLOOKUPs, Pivot Tables, attention to detail, problem-solving, communication, organizational skills, eagerness to learn. Those could be under Skills.
- Benefits: The list under "If eligible, the benefits available for this temporary role may include the following:" plus maybe mention of 401(k), etc.
- Pay: The pay range $20.00 - $23.00/hr.
- Schedule: Full-Time, On-Site (also mention Workplace Type fully onsite). So schedule section.
We also have location: Melville, NY. Could be included in About the role or Schedule? Probably include location in About the role paragraph.
We also have Job Type: Contract position. Could be included in About the role or maybe a separate "Job Type" but not in headings list. Could fold into About the role.
We also have Application Deadline: Oct 2, 2026. That's application instruction; we should remove application instructions per instructions. So we should drop that.
We also have "Workplace Type: This is a fully onsite position in Melville,NY." That's similar to schedule/location; we can incorporate.
We also have "Recent graduates or professionals with strong Excel skills, some corporate office experience, and an interest in building a career in accounting and finance are encouraged to apply. Experience with VLOOKUPs is highly preferred." That's similar to qualifications; we can incorporate.
We need to avoid duplication.
We need to output only HTML fragment, using
