We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO, sustainability, etc. We removed those. Check for duplicated content: we have location/training in Requirements; we also have location in Qualifications? Not needed. We have "Willing to train offsite at the Richmond, VA Industrial Hygiene lab" in Requirements. Also we have "Located at Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories Environment testing lab in Lancaster, PA (or willing to commute)" maybe we can keep. We need to ensure we didn't include any "Please note - Eurofins Environment Testing (USA) provides a compensation range..." we omitted that note; we kept pay range. We omitted "As a Eurofins employee, you will become part of a company that has received national recognition as a great place to work." That's boilerplate? It's a benefit statement but could be considered fluff; but we already have benefits list. Might be okay to keep but it's not a specific benefit; it's generic. Safer to omit. We
