Jere answers:

Sounds condescending and full of oneself. Good to sell your best assets, not so good to overload text with a hoity toity “Look at me!” complex.

Determine up to five of your best selling points and work from there. You don’t need to ramble or put in a bunch of senseless nothing for filler. You’re off to a good start, but you need to tone down and edit.

Sounds more like an office ‘run-a-round’ to me
It’s got too much ‘flannel material’, designed to improve attraction of the position.
Note the plural ‘Immediate openingS available. Could be some RAPID expansion, though I doubt it or.
It could mean there’s a Big turnover in staff, meaning nobody likes working there.
