We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. First, there is an introductory paragraph about KPMG, dynamic team, etc. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About the role". The posting says: "At KPMG, you can become an integral part of a dynamic team...". That's description of role/company. So we can put that under

About the role

with

. Then "Responsibilities:" list. We need to extract bullet points. The responsibilities are a long sentence with many items separated by line breaks? Actually they are separated by spaces and maybe line breaks. Let's parse: "Assist multi-state companies with state and local tax issues (income/franchise, sales/use, excise and property tax) including compliance, consulting, planning and controversiesAssist clients with business tax planning transactions and mergers and acquisitions including identifying and developing state and local tax issues and savings opportunities that arise from legal entity changes/transactions and in designing specific plans to help a business address its state and local tax mattersResearch and draft state and local tax technical memorandaAssist with M&A transactions involving acquisitions and dispositions of equity interests (e.g., corporate stock, LLC membership interests, etc.) and/or business assetsSupervising the work of shared services team members and interns; assist in handling notices including coordination of shared resources Analyze, prepare and review tax workpapers and returns, estimated payments and extensions; stay current on state and local tax legislative, judicial and administrative developmentsBuild capabilities in key technologies that enable tax professionals for client service delivery such as artificial intelligence (AI), Alteryx, Power BI and moreWork as part of a multi-disciplinary team to develop and sustain excellent client relationships" We need to split into separate bullet items. Likely each sentence is a responsibility. Let's separate by periods? Actually there are no periods inside; they are concatenated. But we can infer responsibilities: 1. Assist multi-state companies with state and local tax issues (income/franchise, sales/use, excise and property tax) including compliance, consulting, planning and controversies 2. Assist clients with business tax planning transactions and mergers and acquisitions including identifying and developing state and local tax issues and savings opportunities that arise from legal entity changes/transactions and in designing specific plans to help a business address its state and local tax matters 3. Research and draft state and local tax technical memoranda 4. Assist with M&A transactions involving acquisitions and dispositions of equity interests (e.g., corporate stock, LLC membership interests, etc.) and/or business assets 5. Supervising the work of shared services team members and interns; assist in handling notices including coordination of shared resources 6. Analyze, prepare and review tax workpapers and returns, estimated payments and extensions; stay current on state and local tax legislative, judicial and administrative developments 7. Build capabilities in key technologies that enable tax professionals for client service delivery such as artificial intelligence (AI), Alteryx, Power BI and more 8. Work as part of a multi-disciplinary team to develop and sustain excellent client relationships We'll put those as

  • . Next "Qualifications:" Actually the posting says "Qualifications:" then a block. It includes education requirements, preferred, etc. We need to decide sections: maybe "Qualifications" and "Skills". The posting includes "Qualifications:" then details about degrees, GPA, coursework, etc. Then later "Strong tax research skills", "Strong in technical, business acumen, critical thinking and agility skills..." etc. Those could be skills. Also "Excellent communication, time management and leadership skills..." etc. We need to separate Qualifications (education, GPA, etc.) and Skills (technical, soft skills). Also maybe "Requirements" could be same as Qualifications? The instruction says use headings for section headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to include. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (education), Skills (technical/soft), Benefits, Pay (salary range), maybe Schedule? Not mentioned. No schedule info. So we omit Schedule. We also have "Requirements" maybe could be same as Qualifications? But we have both Qualifications and Skills; we could put Requirements as a heading for mandatory items like work authorization, commuting distance, travel ability, etc. The posting includes: "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." Those could be Requirements. Thus we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines. Also remove "KPMG is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Also remove "No phone calls or agencies please." etc. Also remove "Los Angeles County applicants: Material job duties ..."? That's a specific legal notice; might be considered boilerplate? It's about Fair Chance Act. Might be considered legal/EEO. Probably remove. Also remove "KPMG LLP and its affiliates and subsidiaries (“KPMG”) complies with all local/state regulations regarding displaying salary ranges..." That's part of Pay section? Actually it's about salary ranges disclosure. Might be considered boilerplate but it's about pay transparency. However we have actual salary range: "California Salary Range: $76000 - $100000". We can keep that under Pay. The preceding sentence about compliance could be considered boilerplate; we can drop it. Also remove "KPMG offers a comprehensive compensation and benefits package." maybe duplicate of Benefits. Also remove "KPMG is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Also remove "The attached link contains further information regarding KPMG's compliance..." 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 for this position are listed above...." (legal). Remove. Also remove "Pursuant to the California Fair Chance Act..." etc. Remove. Now we need to preserve all substantive information: responsibilities, qualifications, skills, benefits, pay. Let's 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." We can keep that as Benefits section. Pay: "California Salary Range: $76000 - $100000". Also maybe mention "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 boilerplate; we can drop. Keep the actual range. Also maybe mention "KPMG offers a comprehensive compensation and benefits package." but that's duplicate. Now Requirements: Must reside within commutable distance, ability to travel, must be authorized to work in US without visa sponsorship. Also maybe "Must be pursuing and have obtained by the start date or have completed the following degrees/majors in the past 12 months: Bachelors and/or Masters in accounting, finance, taxation, mathematics, economics, information technology, data and analytics, engineering (financial, industrial or systems), or equivalent program from an accredited college or university". That's more qualification than requirement. But we can treat as Qualifications. Also "Preferred: Degrees and/or areas of study: Accounting and Taxation". That's qualification. Also "Must be pursuing the state-specific education requirements to be a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA) in the principal place of business (the state in which the office is located) for this position, with completion of required academic credits prior to the start date for this position". That's qualification. Also "Preferred GPA of 3.0 or above". Qualification. Also "Coursework or minor in information systems, software engineering, computer science or data and analytics preferred". Qualification. Now Skills: "Strong tax research skills", "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". Also maybe "Build capabilities in key technologies..." but that's responsibility. We'll put skills as bullet list. Now format. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll produce:
