Senior Accountant- NY HELPS

We need to produce HTML fragment with sections for headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

for each heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate. Preserve all substantive information. Include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. Do not emit heading with filler/placeholder text. So we need to parse the description. The description includes: - "Description Duties Description Will be discussed at interview." This seems like placeholder: "Will be discussed at interview." So no substantive duties. - Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications: This title is part of the New York Hiring for Emergency Limited Placement Statewide Program (NY HELPS). Then details about NY HELPS Minimum Qualifications for Non-Competitive Appointment: a bachelor's degree in accounting, auditing, or taxation OR a bachelor's degree with 24 semester credit hours in accounting, auditing, or taxation courses AND two years of professional experience in accounting/auditing or financial internal or field auditing, where you were responsible for the full range of activities in the design and/or review, analysis and management of accounting systems, resulting in the preparation of, or recommendations on, financial statements in accord with generally accepted accounting principles. Substitution: A master's degree in accounting, auditing, or taxation AND one year of professional experience ... OR a currently valid Certified Public Accountant license and registration issued by New York State. Note: Courses such as business law, economics, statistics, and most finance courses, although taken as part of an accounting curriculum, cannot be counted toward the 24 semester credit hours. Experience NOT considered qualifying are activities restricted to teaching, bookkeeping, maintaining/auditing payroll records or accounts receivable/accounts payable, or preparing tax returns. Then there are sections for ACCOUNTANT TRAINEE 1/NS (EQ to SG-14) etc. This seems like multiple titles: Accountant Trainee 1, Accountant Trainee 2. The posting seems to list multiple titles with their qualifications. The content includes details about traineeships, advanced placement, etc. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to extract qualifications, responsibilities (none), maybe benefits/pay/schedule not mentioned. So we likely only have a Qualifications section (maybe Requirements). Also maybe "About the role" could be derived from description? The description says "Description Duties Description Will be discussed at interview." That's not substantive. So we cannot create About the role with filler. So we should not create sections that lack content. Thus we will output a

  Qualifications

  with the detailed qualifications content. Possibly also a

  Requirements

  but that's similar. The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections that have real content. So we will include Qualifications (maybe also Requirements if we consider the qualifications as requirements). But we need to avoid duplication. Probably better to have a single Qualifications section containing all the qualification details. We need to format lists with
  • . The qualifications contain multiple bullet-like items: e.g., "a bachelor's degree in accounting, auditing, or taxation OR a bachelor's degree with 24 semester credit hours in accounting, auditing, or taxation courses AND two years of professional experience...". This is not a list but we could break into bullet points for each condition. However we must preserve all substantive information; we can keep as prose within

    . The instruction says use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. If we don't have explicit list, we can keep prose. Thus output:

      Qualifications

      This title is part of the New York Hiring for Emergency Limited Placement Statewide Program (NY HELPS). NY HELPS Minimum Qualifications for Non-Competitive Appointment: a bachelor's degree in accounting, auditing, or taxation OR a bachelor's degree with 24 semester credit hours in accounting, auditing, or taxation courses AND two years of professional experience in accounting/auditing or financial internal or field auditing, where you were responsible for the full range of activities in the design and/or review, analysis and management of accounting systems, resulting in the preparation of, or recommendations on, financial statements in accord with generally accepted accounting principles. Substitution: A master's degree in accounting, auditing, or taxation AND one year of professional experience in accounting/auditing or financial internal or field auditing, where you were responsible for the full range of activities in the design and/or review, analysis and management of accounting systems, resulting in the preparation of, or recommendations on, financial statements in accord with generally accepted accounting principles OR a currently valid Certified Public Accountant license and registration issued by New York State. Note: Courses such as business law, economics, statistics, and most finance courses, although taken as part of an accounting curriculum, cannot be counted toward the 24 semester credit hours. Experience NOT considered qualifying are activities restricted to teaching, bookkeeping, maintaining/auditing payroll records or accounts receivable/accounts payable, or preparing tax returns.

      Then we need to include the details for ACCOUNTANT TRAINEE 1/NS and ACCOUNTANT TRAINEE 2/NS. Those are also qualifications specifics for those titles. Should we include them under same Qualifications section? Probably yes, as they are part of qualifications for those specific titles. We can incorporate them as additional paragraphs. Thus after the first paragraph, add another paragraph for Trainee 1 qualifications, then Trainee 2 qualifications, then traineeship details, advanced placement, etc. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract: ACCOUNTANT TRAINEE 1/NS (EQ to SG-14) NY HELPS Minimum Qualifications for Non-Competitive Appointment: a bachelor's degree in accounting, auditing, or taxation; OR a bachelor's degree with 24 semester credit hours in accounting, auditing, or taxation courses. Note: Courses such as business law, economics, statistics, and most finance courses, although taken as part of an accounting curriculum, cannot be counted toward the 24 semester credit hours. Traineeships: To be advanced to the full performance level of the title you must successfully complete a set training and development program. Upon satisfactory completion of the 12-month training at the Trainee 1, you will automatically advance to Trainee 2. Upon satisfactory completion of the 12-month training as a Trainee 2, you will advance to the full level of this title without further examination. Advanced Placement: At the agency's discretion, chosen candidates may be appointed to a higher level. Candidates must inform the agency of any additional qualifications at their interview. ACCOUNTANT TRAINEE 2/NS (EQ to SG-16) NY HELPS Minimum Qualifications for Non-Competitive Appointment: A bachelor's degree in accounting, auditing, or taxation or a bachelor's degree with 24 semester credit hours in accounting, auditing, or taxation courses AND one year of professional experience in accounting/auditing or financial internal or field auditing, where you were responsible for the full range of activities in the design and/or review, analysis and management of accounting systems, resulting in the preparation of, or recommendations on, financial statements in accord with generally accepted accounting principles. Substitution: A master's or higher degree in accounting, auditing, or taxation may substitute for one year of experience. Note: Courses such as business law, economics, statistics, and most finance courses, although taken as part of an accounting curriculum, cannot be counted toward the 24 semester credit hours. Experience NOT considered qualifying are activities restricted to teaching, bookkeeping, maintaining/auditing payroll records or accounts receivable/accounts payable, or preparing tax returns. Traineeships: To be advanced to the full performance level of the title you must successfully complete a set training and development program. Upon satisfactory completion of the 12-month training as a Trainee 2, you will advance to the full level of this title without further examination. For the duration of the NY HELPS Program, this title maybe filled via a non-competitive appointment, which means no examination is required but all candidates must meet the minimum qualifications of the title for which they apply. At a future date (within one year of permanent appointment), it is expected employees hired under NY HELPS will have their non-competitive employment status converted to competitive status, without having to complete in an examination. Employees will then be afforded with all of the same rights and privileges of competitive class employees of New York State. While serving permanently in a NY HELPS title, employees may take part in any promotion examination for which they are qualified. We need to preserve all that. Thus we will output a Qualifications section with multiple paragraphs. We should not include any other sections (Responsibilities, Benefits, Pay, Schedule) because no substantive content. Thus final HTML:
