We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if real specific content. We have job summary, duties, education qualifications, benefits (some description), pay ranges (multiple states). Also "About Us" content. We need to use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - Job Summary: description about role, responsibilities. Could map to "About the role" or "Responsibilities". The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose headings that match content. We have duties listed under "Job Duties" with subcategories: Tax Compliance, Tax Accruals, Tax Consulting. Those are responsibilities. So we can have a

Responsibilities

with
  • items. We have "Education Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills and Abilities:" with bullet-like list: Enrolled in a Bachelors or Masters program in Accounting or other relevant field required; Pursuing a masters degree in Accounting or other relevant field preferred; Experience Leadership experience preferred; License/Certifications Actively pursuing school credits to become a CPA; Software Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, specifically Word, Excel and PowerPoint; Other Preferred Knowledge, Skills & Abilities: Strong written and verbal communication skills; Ability to follow instructions as directed; Ability to work effectively in a team setting; Positive attitude and willingness to learn; Seeks advice of appropriate superiors regarding issues related to compliance; Ability to prepare simple tax returns. We can separate into Requirements (education, experience, certifications) and Skills (software, communication, etc.). The instruction says we can have sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide. We have "Individual salaries that are offered to a candidate are determined after consideration of numerous factors including but not limited to the candidate’s qualifications, experience, skills, and geography." Then list of state ranges. That's pay info. So we can have a

    Pay

    with a

    describing that salary ranges vary by location and then maybe a

    • for each state? The instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Pay is not a list of duties/requirements/benefits, but we could still use

        . However we could also use

        • for each state range if we want. It says use
          • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Pay is not explicitly listed, but we could still use

            . Safer to use

            for prose. We have "About Us" describing BDO values, purpose, etc. That could be "About the role"? Actually "About Us" is more about company. Could map to "About the role"? Not exactly. There's no specific heading for company overview. Could we include a section like "About the role"? That could incorporate job summary and maybe about us? But we need to avoid filler. The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it. So we can have sections: Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Also maybe "About the role" from job summary. But we already have Responsibilities covering duties. The job summary also includes description of opportunity. Could be part of "About the role". Let's decide to have: -

            About the role

            with

            containing job summary paragraph(s). -

            Responsibilities

            with
            • items for each duty bullet. -

              Requirements

              with
              • for education, experience, certifications. -

                Skills

                with
                • for software, communication, teamwork, etc. -

                  Benefits

                  with

                  describing ESOP, total rewards, etc. (the About Us section includes benefits description). Actually the "About Us" includes benefits description (ESOP, total rewards). So we can put that under Benefits. -

                  Pay

                  with

                  describing salary ranges and list of state ranges maybe as

                  • . We must not include sections like Schedule if not present. No schedule info. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. The posting includes EEO statements at end; we must remove them. Also "Learn more about our benefits: BDO Total Rewards encompass more than traditional benefits. Click here to find out more !" That's maybe part of benefits but includes a link; we can keep the substance but maybe drop the "Click here". The instruction: remove duplicated lines, but we can keep the substance. We'll keep a concise description. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the pay ranges for each state exactly as given. We must not omit any state range. So we need to include all those ranges. We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. We have pay info, benefits info (ESOP, total rewards). So we can include. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must output ONLY the HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft.
