Tax Associate, International Tax Services - Summer 2027 (Dallas)

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So only top-level sections. Within Responsibilities we can have paragraphs or lists. We can embed subheadings as maybe but not required. We'll just list all duties as

items. We need to extract each duty line: - Develops, recommends, and implements critical thinking to provide clients with tax advice on international tax issues - Gains exposure to the development of work plans for all assigned clients - Learns about international tax law relevant to particular clients and how that law can be appropriately applied to client facts - Monitors tax law and client factual developments on a daily basis - Coordinates with BDO non-US colleagues in approximately 160 countries on how US tax rules align with foreign tax law to impact client transactions - Begins to develop an in-depth understanding of the technical and practical issues and opportunities regarding International taxation and explores specializing in one or more international tax areas - Identifies when research is necessary and frames issues to be researched; identifies sources of all reliable and relevant information including information tending to contradict preferred positions; accesses those sources and retrieves that information; analyzes facts and authorities; understands their weight; and reports on analysis - Assists in preparing Written Tax Advice (WTA) on international tax and cross-border transactions - Assists in obtaining required client information to utilize in the preparation of international tax compliance forms and US international informational reporting - Has a basic level of understanding of tax compliance as evidenced by: Ability to use Firm tax compliance software to maximize efficiency in tax preparation process Understands international tax compliance topics such as Subpart F income, Earnings and Profits adjustments and foreign tax credits and analyzing cross-border transactions for tax return impacts, including Section 351 and Section 304 transactions, liquidations under Sections 331 and 332, and reorganizations under Section 368 - Learns about representing clients before the IRS on contested issues - Uses tax research databases such as RIA, BNA, Lexis Nexis Uses Go Systems, and other tax-related software with some supervision - Develops a basic understanding of ASC 740-10 as it applies to international tax issues. Understands and applies Firm policies, standards, and the BDO Tax Quality Manual - Other duties as required Supervisory Responsibilities N/A - skip. Now Education Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills and Abilities: This is a big block. We need to separate sections: maybe Requirements (Education Qualifications), Skills, etc. The instruction: Use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have real content. We have Education Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills and Abilities block: includes Bachelors degree required, Accounting or other business related major preferred, J.D., LLM, and/or MST/MBT preferred, Internship within a professional services firm preferred, Tax experience preferred, License/Certifications: CPA certification, Attorney (admitted to practice in a U.S. jurisdiction), or Internal Revenue Service Enrolled Agent (“EA”) (or the equivalent of one of these designations), preferred, Software Proficient in the use of Microsoft Office Suite, specifically Word, Excel and PowerPoint, preferred, Experience utilizing RIA, BNA, Lexis Nexis and/or Westlaw, preferred, Language N/A (skip), Other Knowledge, Skills & Abilities list. We can create sections: Requirements (education, experience, licensure), Skills (software, language maybe), maybe Qualifications overlapping. But we must not create thin sections. We can combine education, experience, licensure into a Requirements section. Then Skills section for software, language (though language N/A skip), and other knowledge/skills. We also have Pay: salary ranges per state. That's specific content. So we need a Pay section with those ranges. Should we list each state? Yes preserve all substantive info. We'll put as

• each state range. Schedule: Not mentioned. So skip. Benefits: There's a section "About Us" describing benefits: ESOP, Total Rewards, etc. Also mention "Learn more about our benefits: BDO Total Rewards encompass more than traditional benefits." There's also mention of ESOP as qualified retirement plan, etc. So we have benefits content. We'll create Benefits section with that prose. Also there is "About Us" describing purpose, values, etc. That could be "About the role"? Actually About the role is from Job Summary. The "About Us" is more about company. Could be a section "About the company" but not in allowed headings. Allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should put company description maybe under About the role? But About the role is supposed to be role summary. We already have Job Summary. We could treat "About Us" as part of Benefits? Not really. Could we add a section "About the role" containing the Job Summary, and maybe also include the "About Us" as part of that? The instruction: Use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., not exclusive list, but we should stick to those. We could add an "About the role" section containing the Job Summary paragraph. Then we could add another section maybe "About the company" but not allowed. Better to incorporate the About Us content into Benefits? Not ideal but maybe we can treat it as part of Benefits? However Benefits section should be about benefits. The About Us includes purpose, values, ESOP, etc. That's somewhat benefits/culture. Could be placed under Benefits as additional description. But we already have Benefits content about ESOP etc. We could merge. Alternatively we could create a section "About the role" for Job Summary, and then another section "About the company" but not allowed; risk of being rejected? The instruction says use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies those are examples; we could still use other headings? Safer to stick to those. So we need to fit About Us somewhere. Perhaps we can put it under Benefits as it's about total rewards and culture. Or we could put it under Requirements? No. Let's create sections: - About the role: Job Summary paragraph. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Requirements: education, experience, licensure. - Skills: software proficiency, other knowledge/skills (maybe combine with Requirements? but we need to avoid thin sections). We'll make Skills include software, language (skip), and other knowledge/skills list. - Benefits: ESOP, Total Rewards, etc plus About Us description. - Pay: salary ranges per state. We must not include sections with filler like "N/A". So skip Language. Now we need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract details. Education Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills and Abilities block: "Bachelors degree, required Accounting or other business related major, preferred J. D., LLM, and/or MST/MBT, preferred Experience Internship within a professional services firm, preferred Tax experience, preferred License/Certifications CPA certification, Attorney (admitted to practice in a U.S. jurisdiction), or Internal Revenue Service Enrolled Agent (“EA”) (or the equivalent of one of these designations), preferred Software Proficient in the use of Microsoft Office Suite, specifically Word, Excel and PowerPoint, preferred Experience utilizing RIA, BNA, Lexis Nexis and/or Westlaw, preferred Language N/A Other Knowledge, Skills & Abilities Solid verbal and written communications skills Strong analytical and basic legal and tax research skills Solid organizational skills especially ability to meet project deadlines with a focus on details Capable of successfully multi-tasking while working within independently or within a team environment Ability to successfully interact with professionals at all levels Basic understanding of the technical and practical issues and opportunities regarding one or more areas of taxation and law Basic knowledge and understanding of general calculations and cause / effect for taxable conditions on clients and the potential tax issues Strong legal writing background and familiarity with the IRAC method of analysis In-depth understanding of the technical and practical issues and opportunities regarding one or more areas of taxation" We need to split. Requirements: Education (Bachelors degree required, Accounting or other business related major preferred, J.D., LLM, and/or MST/MBT preferred), Experience (Internship within a professional services firm preferred, Tax experience preferred), License/Certifications (CPA certification, Attorney admitted to practice in a U.S. jurisdiction, or IRS Enrolled Agent preferred). Skills: Software (Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite Word, Excel, PowerPoint preferred; Experience utilizing RIA, BNA, Lexis Nexis and/or Westlaw preferred), Other Knowledge, Skills & Abilities list (the long list). We'll include that as

  • items. Benefits: From About Us: "At BDO, how we show up matters.
