No Qualifications, Skills, Schedule if not specific. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to use

We need to extract benefits as list items: Flexible work arrangements, Competitive compensation package, Generous 401K employer match, Employee Stock Purchase plan with employer matching, Generous Paid Time Off, Excellent benefits that go beyond health, dental & vision, Wellness programs focus on family's complete wellness (physical and mental wellbeing), Tuition reimbursement, industry related certifications and professional training, Dynamic ambitious fun exciting work environment, Spirit of social responsibility, matching donation program, volunteer opportunities, employee driven corporate giving. Also maybe mention inclusive diversity etc but that's more EEO; we can include as benefit? Might be considered part of benefits but it's EEO; but we can keep as a paragraph maybe. However we should not include boilerplate EEO? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should remove the inclusivity/diversity statement and the California resident privacy notice and pay equity law statements? Those are legal boilerplate. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove the EEO statement, the California resident privacy notice, and the pay equity law statement. Also the sentence about salary ranges being available etc might be considered part of Pay section; we can keep the pay range details. The sentence about discretionary equity etc is part of compensation; we can keep. Thus we need to strip out: - "We value inclusivity and diversity. We are committed to equal employment opportunity and welcome everyone regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, or Veteran status. If you require special accommodation, please let us know." - "For California Residents Only: Information collected and processed as part of your career profile and any job applications you choose to submit are subject to our privacy notices and policies, visit https://www.cfins.com/onlineprivacypolicy/ca/noticeatcollection/ for more information." - "Crum & Forster is committed to ensuring a workplace free from discriminatory pay disparities and complying with applicable pay equity laws." We can keep the rest: Salary ranges... etc. Now we need to format. We'll start with a
