We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Must use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have real content.
The posting includes:
- Intro paragraph about KPMG, culture, etc. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About the role". We'll put that in
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have real content.
The posting includes:

with
. - Responsibilities: list of duties (multiple lines). Use
- .
- Qualifications: includes education, GPA, coursework, etc. That's qualifications.
- Skills: there is a list of skills like technical, business acumen, critical thinking, agility, etc. Also "Demonstrated ability to excel..." etc. Could be Skills section.
- Benefits: there is description of benefits package. So Benefits section.
- Pay: there is salary range info: California Salary Range: $76000 - $100000, plus mention of pay transparency link. So we have Pay.
- Schedule: not mentioned explicitly. No schedule details. So we should not create Schedule section.
- Requirements: maybe overlapping with Qualifications? The posting has "Qualifications:" heading. Could treat that as Requirements? But we have both Qualifications and Requirements headings possible. The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have both Requirements and Qualifications if content distinct. However the posting only has a "Qualifications:" block. Could split into Requirements (maybe eligibility: must be enrolled, must reside within commutable distance, ability to travel, authorized to work in US, no sponsorship). And Qualifications (education, GPA, coursework, skills). But we need to avoid duplication. Let's parse:
Under "Qualifications:" they list:
- Must be enrolled in an accredited college or university and pursuing the following degrees/majors: Bachelors and/or Masters in Business (Supply Chain, Logistics, or other business-related major), International Affairs (International Studies, Political Science), International Trade, Data or related degree, or equivalent program
- Upon completion of this internship, candidates must have additional academic credits to complete before obtaining their degree and/or CPA eligibility requirements
- Preferred GPA of 3.0 or above
- Coursework or minor in information systems, software engineering, computer science or data and analytics preferred
- Coursework in Principles of Financial Accounting, Managerial Accounting, Trade Policy and Global Finance, Contemporary Issues in Global Trade, Dispute Settlement in International Trade, U.S. Export Controls and Economic Sanctions, Economic Development & Global Supply Chains, International Economics & Applied Analysis is preferred
- Strong in technical, business acumen, critical thinking and agility skills. Demonstrated ability to excel and drive strategic outcomes, coupled with a professional demeanor and a collaborative leadership approach, in a dynamic, evolving environment
- Demonstrated quality service mindset, strong technical aptitude, ability to learn and navigate technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), Alteryx and Power BI, MS Office Applications including Excel, PowerPoint, Word and Outlook and apply emerging technologies to enhance tax processes and insights
- Excellent communication, time management and leadership skills, feedback oriented, and resourceful in delivering high quality work
- Must reside within a reasonably commutable distance to the office for this position and be able to travel to reasonably commutable work locations using own means of transportation, such as a personal vehicle or public transportation
- Ability to travel and/or work on-site at client premises as needed, at times with relatively short notice
- 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)
Thus we can separate:
- Requirements: eligibility items: enrollment, GPA, residency/commute, travel ability, work authorization, no sponsorship.
- Qualifications: education/degree, coursework, GPA (maybe overlapping), but we can keep GPA in Qualifications.
- Skills: technical, business acumen, critical thinking, agility, quality service mindset, technical aptitude, ability to learn technologies, communication, time management, leadership, feedback oriented, resourceful.
But there is overlap. However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one "Qualifications" section, and Skills separate. But we have headings list includes both; we can choose to include only those with real content. If we combine, we might still have both headings but one could be thin. Better to have:
- About the role
- Responsibilities
- Qualifications (includes education, GPA, coursework, skills, eligibility)
- Benefits
- Pay
We could also add Skills if we want to separate but risk thin. Let's see if we have enough distinct content for Skills: we have list of skills separate from qualifications. Could make Skills section.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Remove duplicated lines, application instructions, cookie/navigation, etc. Also remove the salary transparency link? It's part of Pay info; we can keep mention of link but maybe it's boilerplate? It's part of pay transparency; we can keep as part of Pay section.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from the posting except boilerplate.
Let's extract substantive content:
Intro paragraph:
"At KPMG, you can become an integral part of a dynamic team at one of the top tax firms in the world. Enjoy a collaborative, future-forward culture that empowers your success. Work with KPMGs extensive network of specialists and enjoy access to our Ignition Centers, where deep industry knowledge merges with cutting-edge technologies to create innovative tax solutions. Join a diverse team helping high-profile clients understand, analyze and respond to complex business opportunities and challenges. Develop your career through a range of multifaceted engagements, formal training and informal mentoring. At KPMG, we put our culture and values front and center."
That's about the role.
Responsibilities list (each line seems separate sentence; we can make bullet points):
- Advise clients on import and export matters in a variety of industries
- Examine U.S. and international import and export trade matters
- Research, write and review international trade advice
- Formulate ideas and deliver possible trade savings opportunities
- Assist in the delivery of multiple client engagements on time and within budget; maintain active communication with clients in an effort to manage expectations and to help enhance client satisfaction
- Support clients with the implementation of global trade automated solutions
- Build capabilities in key technologies that enable tax professionals for client service delivery such as artificial intelligence (AI), Alteryx, Power BI, and more
Qualifications: we need to include all items under Qualifications heading.
Let's list them as bullet points (maybe combine similar). We'll keep as
- . - Must be enrolled in an accredited college or university and pursuing the following degrees/majors: Bachelors and/or Masters in Business (Supply Chain, Logistics, or other business-related major), International Affairs (International Studies, Political Science), International Trade, Data or related degree, or equivalent program - Upon completion of this internship, candidates must have additional academic credits to complete before obtaining their degree and/or CPA eligibility requirements - Preferred GPA of 3.0 or above - Coursework or minor in information systems, software engineering, computer science or data and analytics preferred - Coursework in Principles of Financial Accounting, Managerial Accounting, Trade Policy and Global Finance, Contemporary Issues in Global Trade, Dispute Settlement in International Trade, U.S. Export Controls and Economic Sanctions, Economic Development & Global Supply Chains, International Economics & Applied Analysis is preferred - Strong in technical, business acumen, critical thinking and agility skills. Demonstrated ability to excel and drive strategic outcomes, coupled with a professional demeanor and a collaborative leadership approach, in a dynamic, evolving environment - Demonstrated quality service mindset, strong technical aptitude, ability to learn and navigate technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), Alteryx and Power BI, MS Office Applications including Excel, PowerPoint, Word and Outlook and apply emerging technologies to enhance tax processes and insights - Excellent communication, time management and leadership skills, feedback oriented, and resourceful in delivering high quality work - Must reside within a reasonably commutable distance to the office for this position and be able to travel to reasonably commutable work locations using own means of transportation, such as a personal vehicle or public transportation - Ability to travel and/or work on-site at client premises as needed, at times with relatively short notice - 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) Skills: we could extract skill-specific bullets from qualifications that are skill-focused. But to avoid duplication, maybe we keep Skills separate and list: - Technical, business acumen, critical thinking, agility - Quality service mindset - Strong technical aptitude, ability to learn and navigate technologies such as AI, Alteryx, Power BI - Proficiency with MS Office Applications (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook) - Excellent communication, time management and leadership skills - Feedback oriented and resourceful But note that some of these already appear in Qualifications. However we risk duplication. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Duplication is okay if it's in the source? The source has those statements; we could keep them in Qualifications and not repeat in Skills. But we need a Skills section only if there is real, specific content for it. The posting does not have a separate "Skills:" heading; skills are embedded within Qualifications. So we might not create a separate Skills section to avoid thin content. Better to have only Qualifications covering education, coursework, GPA, skills, eligibility. That would be substantive. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. We need to ensure we don't create Schedule. Now Benefits section: extract benefits description. From posting: "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 should keep that as Benefits. Pay section: includes: "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 applicant's skills, job responsibilities, prior relevant experience,
