SR PROJECT MANAGER, STUDIO
for heading, then content:
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we must include all details from the posting, but we can format as lists.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal. Also remove duplicated lines. Also remove "This job description is not intended to be all-inclusive..." etc. Also remove "Imagine Exhibitions Inc. reserves the right to revise or change duties as the need arises." That's boilerplate? Might be considered generic but it's part of job description; but it's not substantive? It's a disclaimer. Probably remove. Also remove "Applicants must be located in Georgia, Florida or Tennessee. This position is remote and may require occasional travel to our Atlanta, GA office." That's substantive location requirement, keep. Also "Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States at the time of hire. We are not able to provide visa sponsorship for this role." Keep as requirement.
Also "Benefits: Dental insurance Health insurance Life insurance Vision insurance" keep.
We need to ensure we don't include "Physical and mental requirements" as separate section unless we incorporate into Requirements.
