Director of Visa and Immigration
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key sections:
- Location list (many locations) – maybe part of "Location" but not a heading. Could be a short paragraph.
- Intro about EY: "At EY, we’re all in to shape your future with confidence..." repeated. We can keep a concise paragraph summarizing.
- "The opportunity As the Visa & Immigration Director, you will provide strategic and operational direction..." – this is about the role. Could be under "About the role" or maybe "Responsibilities". We'll decide.
- "Your Key Responsibilities" list – many bullet points. We'll put under Responsibilities
with - .
- "Skills And Attributes For Success" – list of abilities. Could be under
Skills
(or Skills And Attributes). We'll use Skills.
- "To qualify for this role, you must have ..." – qualifications. Could be under Qualifications
(or Requirements). We'll separate: Requirements maybe for experience, Qualifications for education/certification. But we can combine. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Possibly Schedule not present (no schedule info). So omit Schedule.
- Benefits: "What We Offer You ... comprehensive compensation and benefits package ... base salary range ... Total Rewards package includes medical and dental coverage, pension and 401(k) plans, and a wide range of paid time off options. Under our flexible vacation policy..." This includes benefits and pay. We could separate Pay and Benefits. Pay: base salary ranges. Benefits: medical, dental, pension, 401(k), paid time off, flexible vacation policy, holidays, etc.
Thus we will have:
About the role
– paragraph summarizing role and opportunity.
Responsibilities
– ul list of responsibilities.
Qualifications
– education/certification, years experience, proficiency, flexibility, handling confidential info.
Skills
– abilities list.
Pay
– base salary ranges per location.
Benefits
– medical/dental, pension/401(k), paid time off, flexible vacation policy, holidays, etc.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove those paragraphs.
We must preserve all substantive info: location list, intro about EY, opportunity paragraph, responsibilities list, qualifications, skills, pay, benefits.
We need to ensure we don't repeat sentences unnecessarily but preserve all info. Could condense some repetitive intro but must keep substance. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we cannot summarize away detail; we must keep all details. However we can combine repetitive sentences? The intro repeats same paragraph twice. We could keep one copy; that's not losing substantive info because it's duplicate. Removing duplicate is okay as it's not losing unique info. Similarly the "At EY, we’re all in..." repeated twice; we can keep one.
We must not invent or summarize away detail: we must not replace specifics with vague statements. So we need to keep the exact salary ranges, location lists, responsibilities bullet points exactly as given (maybe slight rewording? Must preserve meaning). Safer to copy the text verbatim for each bullet.
We'll produce HTML.
Let's extract details.
Location list: "Location: New York, Palo Alto, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Irvine, Los Angeles, Denver, Stamford, Hartford, Orlando, Miami, Jacksonville, Tallahassee, Tampa, Atlanta, Indianapolis, Des Moines, Kansas City, Wichita, Louisville, New Orleans, Baltimore, Boston, Detroit, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Hoboken, Iselin, Buffalo, Chicago, Rochester, Cleveland, Columbus, Portland, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Providence, Greenville, Nashville, Memphis, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, Salt Lake City, McLean, Richmond, Seattle, Milwaukee, Washington, Dallas, Charlotte"
We can put that in a after maybe a short intro.
Intro about EY: "At EY, we’re all in to shape your future with confidence. We’ll help you succeed in a globally connected powerhouse of diverse teams and take your career wherever you want it to go. Join EY and help to build a better working world." plus maybe the sentence about high-ethical standards: "EY focuses on high-ethical standards and integrity among its employees and expects all candidates to demonstrate these qualities." plus "At EY, you’ll have the chance to build a career as unique as you are, with the global scale, support, inclusive culture and technology to become the best version of you. And we’re counting on your unique voice and perspective to help EY become even better, too. Join us and build an exceptional experience for yourself, and a better working world for all."
We'll combine into a paragraph(s). Keep all.
"The opportunity As the Visa & Immigration Director, you will provide strategic and operational direction in the development and implementation of immigration policies, procedures, and workforce strategy for the Firm.. You will identify and set priorities, manage compliance, and develop reporting for senior leadership. You will oversee and manage a team of immigration professionals that support each service line.

You will provide direction to our foreign national service providers and legal team."
We'll keep as paragraph.
Now responsibilities list: Let's extract each bullet from "Your Key Responsibilities". The text after that is a long sentence with periods separating items. We need to split into list items.
Original:
"Your Key Responsibilities Direct the design and development of immigration policy for the US firm.Responsible for all third-party service providers, request for proposals (RFP) and contract negotiations in accordance with firm policy.Formulate and provide financial and statistical information for quarterly projections of immigration.

We need to split each sentence (separated by period) into
- . Ensure we keep the content.

1. Direct the design and development of immigration policy for the US firm.
2. Responsible for all third-party service providers, request for proposals (RFP) and contract negotiations in accordance with firm policy.

Check for any missing: after "You will act as an advisor..." there is a period then "In this capacity..." we split. Good.
Now qualifications: "To qualify for this role, you must have J.D., immigration certification, or equivalent professional credential (e.g., AILA, CIPD)12-15 years of related experience working with US immigration, having knowledge of US Immigration regulations and processes, including compliance requirements and regulationsProficient in MS Office, including Word, Teams, Excel, and PowerPointFlexibility to work outside of normal hours Ideally, you’ll also have Experience handling highly confidential information"

- Proficient in MS Office, including Word, Teams, Excel, and PowerPoint
