Investment Banking Analyst, Capital Advisors
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points from responsibilities, minimum qualifications, preferred qualifications, benefits, etc.
We need to decide how to split content into sections.
Section headings allowed: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We can map:
- About the role: description paragraph about Capital Advisors team, role overview, maybe first paragraph after "Description & Requirements". Could include the paragraph: "The Capital Advisors team provides investment banking...". Also maybe the sentence about "If you thrive in a fast-paced..." etc. We'll include that as prose.
- Responsibilities: list of duties under "What You Will Do". That's a big list. We'll put each bullet as
- .
- Requirements: Minimum Qualifications bullet list.
- Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications bullet list.
- Skills: maybe we can extract skills from qualifications? But we already have qualifications sections; maybe we can put skills like "Proficient in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint", "Strong writing and financial modeling skills", etc. However those are already in Minimum Qualifications. Could move them to Skills section to avoid duplication? But we must preserve all info; we can keep them in Requirements or Skills but not duplicate. Better to follow typical: Requirements = minimum qualifications; Qualifications = preferred qualifications; Skills = maybe we can list specific skills like Excel, PowerPoint, financial modeling, etc. But we risk duplication. However instructions: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we combine skills into Requirements or Qualifications. But we have to use headings only when posting has real specific content for it. We can decide to not include Skills section if we already covered skills in Requirements/Qualifications. But we need to decide.
We have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. That's six sections. That's fine.
We must not include Schedule.
Now we need to extract content.
Let's parse the posting.
First paragraph: "Description & Requirements The Capital Advisors team provides investment banking and strategic advisory services to help businesses unlock value through customized liquidity and growth strategies.

Now Benefits/What We Offer: paragraph:
"What We Offer Our robust total rewards program and flexible work environment reflect our commitment to people, careers, and well-being-empowering our team to grow and thrive while delivering exceptional service. To explore what makes working at Forvis Mazars special, visit www.forvismazars.us/careers."
Also earlier: "Total compensation and benefits consist of salary, group health plan benefits, 401(K), profit-sharing contributions, flexible time off, and parental leave." That's under Legal Notice/Colorado Equal Pay section. Actually that sentence appears after "Total compensation and benefits consist of salary, group health plan benefits, 401(K), profit-sharing contributions, flexible time off, and parental leave." That's part of the legal notice/Colorado section. We should include benefits info.
Thus Benefits section should include: robust total rewards program, flexible work environment, group health plan benefits, 401(K), profit-sharing contributions, flexible time off, parental leave. Also maybe mention "To explore what makes working at Forvis Mazars special, visit www.forvismazars.us/careers." That's a link; we can keep as prose.
Now Pay section: Salary range: Colorado Minimum Salary (USD) $ 76,700; Colorado Maximum Salary (USD) $ 127,900. Also note that salary based on experience etc. We'll include that.
Now we need to strip boilerplate: Legal Notice, EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove "Close Date: 12/31/2026" maybe we can keep as short p? It's metadata but not a section; we could fold into a short p at end maybe under About the role? But instructions: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include a short p for Close Date maybe at end. But we might drop it as not essential. However it's substantive? It's a date; maybe we keep as a short p after sections.
We must not include any markdown fences.

Now ensure we preserve all substantive info from responsibilities, qualifications, benefits, pay.
Let's craft the About the role paragraph(s). Could be two paragraphs: first describing team, second about role and environment. We'll combine into maybe two
elements.
We need to avoid duplication: The About the role includes the sentence "If you thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial and collaborative environment, we would love to talk to you!" and "In this position, you will gain hands-on experience..." etc.
Now Benefits paragraph: combine the two sentences: "Our robust total rewards program and flexible work environment reflect our commitment to people, careers, and well-being-empowering our team to grow and thrive while delivering exceptional service. To explore what makes working at Forvis Mazars special, visit www.forvismazars.us/careers."

Now ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO, legal notice, etc.
