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. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting mentions benefits: "comprehensive, competitive benefits package", details about medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401(k), personal well-being benefits, Personal Time Off, holidays, breaks. So Benefits section is present. Pay: It mentions salary ranges but 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." It gives a link to salary ranges. It also says "KPMG offers a comprehensive compensation and benefits package." There's no explicit salary figure, but they mention salary ranges via link. Should we include Pay section? The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does mention compensation and benefits package, and provides a link for salary ranges. That is stating that salary ranges are available via link. So we can include Pay section with that info (maybe just mention that salary ranges are available via link). However we must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". The posting does not give a specific number, but 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." That's substantive: they provide a link to salary ranges. So we can include Pay section with that link.
Schedule: Not mentioned. No mention of work hours, schedule, remote, etc. So we should not include Schedule section.
Now sections: About the role (intro paragraph). Responsibilities (list). Qualifications (list). Skills maybe separate? The posting includes qualifications and also skills like Excel, PowerPoint, project management, etc. Could combine Qualifications and Skills? But we have separate headings possible. We need to decide based on content. The posting has "Qualifications :" then bullet-like sentences. It also mentions "Proven performance with project management, process analysis, process redesign, financial systems, analytics, and financial analysis required; strong Excel and PowerPoint skills are required". That's more skills. Could create a Skills section. However we must prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Qualifications and Skills into one section called Qualifications (or Requirements). But we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings possible. The posting uses "Qualifications :" heading. There's no separate "Requirements". So we can have a Qualifications section that includes both experience and skills. We could also have a Requirements section if we want to separate but risk thin. Better to have one Qualifications section.
Thus sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay.
Now we need to extract substantive content, remove boilerplate, duplicates, navigation, legal, EEO, etc.
Let's parse the posting.
Original text:
"The KPMG Advisory practice is at the forefront of transformation, offering excellent opportunities for individuals to advance their careers and expertise with KPMG.

KPMG is currently seeking a Manager to join our KPMG Strategy practice."
That's the About the role/intro.
Then "Responsibilities :" then a list (some duplicated). Let's extract:
- Assist with selling and delivering client engagements for corporate and private equity clients with significant transactions including acquisitions and divestitures with operational focus on the finance & accounting function
- Work with KPMGs M&A Services teams on F&A engagements and/or work streams, focusing on full range of finance and accounting activities at the clients

- Assist with selling, and delivering client engagements for corporate and private equity groups with significant transactions including acquisitions and divestitures with operational focus on the finance & accounting function
Note duplication: first and last bullet are similar. We should deduplicate. Keep one.
Thus responsibilities:
- Assist with selling and delivering client engagements for corporate and private equity clients with significant transactions including acquisitions and divestitures, with an operational focus on the finance & accounting function.
- Work with KPMG M&A Services teams on F&A engagements and/or work streams, focusing on the full range of finance and accounting activities at the client.
- Collaborate with KPMG teams including financial due diligence, accounting advisory services, transaction tax, management consulting, financial management, enterprise systems, risk consulting, and treasury services.
Now "Qualifications :" then list:

- Bachelor's degree from an accredited college/university in an appropriate field; licensed CPA or MBA a plus
- Significant Operational M&A transaction experience in all phases of the deal lifecycle from pre-signing to post-close operations; must have extensive hands-on experience assisting with the operational details of transactions both pre- and post-close; experience with international transactions desirable
- Proven performance with project management, process analysis, process redesign, financial systems, analytics, and financial analysis required; strong Excel and PowerPoint skills are required
- Significant experience with the finance and accounting function of large complex organizations
- Solid experience with F&A sub-functions including Order to Cash, Procure to Pay, Record to Report, FP&A, Treasury, Tax, and Internal Audit
- Knowledge and experience with transition service agreements (TSAs), charts of accounts, shared services and Day 1 readiness is desired
- Willingness and ability to travel
- 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)
Now after that there is a paragraph about salary ranges and benefits.
We need to extract Benefits: "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."
Thus Benefits section includes medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401(k), personal well-being benefits, PTO, holidays, breaks.
Now Pay: "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, certain degrees and certifications and market considerations. 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.

Thus Pay section: mention that salary ranges are available via link (provided). Could also note that compensation is determined based on skills, experience, etc. But we should not invent filler. We can include the link and statement that salary ranges are displayed per location.
Now we must remove boilerplate: EEO statements, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, 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. That's legal/EEO/fair chance. Remove.
Also remove "KPMG is an equal opportunity employer." etc.
Now produce HTML.
Structure:
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting mentions benefits: "comprehensive, competitive benefits package", details about medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401(k), personal well-being benefits, Personal Time Off, holidays, breaks.

That's substantive: they provide a link to salary ranges. So we can include Pay section with that link.
Schedule: Not mentioned. No mention of work hours, schedule, remote, etc. So we should not include Schedule section.
Now sections: About the role (intro paragraph). Responsibilities (list). Qualifications (list). Skills maybe separate? The posting includes qualifications and also skills like Excel, PowerPoint, project management, etc. Could combine Qualifications and Skills? But we have separate headings possible.
