Tax Senior Associate [Commercial Services Group]
for each section heading.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO statements, accommodation email, unsolicited recruiter note, etc. Also remove duplicated lines like "CohnReznick is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Also remove the "Studies have shown that we are less likely to apply..." maybe keep? That's more of encouragement but not boilerplate? It's a generic statement; but it's part of the posting. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not legal EEO; it's encouraging applications. Might keep? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The encouragement statement is not exactly EEO; it's about applying. Could be considered application instruction? It's encouraging to apply even if not meet all qualifications. Might be considered application instruction? Probably we should remove it as it's not substantive detail about the job. Safer to remove.
Also remove the "To learn more about life at CohnReznick, visit Life at CohnReznick ." That's application instruction/link. Remove.
Remove the brand name explanation paragraphs about CohnReznick LLP and Advisory LLC etc. That's boilerplate legal. Remove.
Remove the EEO paragraphs and accommodation email.
Remove the "#GD #CB" at end.

We could split into Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (technical/soft). But we can also have a single Requirements section that includes all. However instruction: Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Requirements and Skills into one "Requirements" section, but we also have Benefits, Pay, Schedule separate.
We could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to include Skills? Could be part of Requirements.
But we have separate "Skills" heading possible if we have content. We have skills list: client service, communication, tax research, MS Office, tax software, project management. That's indeed skills. Could put under Skills.
But to avoid many thin sections, we could combine Requirements (education/experience) and Skills into one "Requirements" section. However the instruction says: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe better to have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including education, experience, skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's 5 sections.
We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have concrete info.
