I think this version is stronger for SEEK because it:

• avoids claims such as "market-leading", "genuine pathway to Partner", or "rapidly growing" unless they can be substantiated;

• uses "up to $150,000 depending on experience", which gives flexibility during recruitment;

• reduces the minimum experience to 3 years, broadening the candidate pool;

• clearly identifies the location as Padstow NSW (next to Padstow Train Station); and

• maintains a professional tone that is consistent with CPA public practice recruitment.
