Fraud Prevention Investigator I
Rockland Trust · Plymouth, MA · 1 mo ago
LegalFull-time
We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use under
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive information. We need to parse the job description. Key sections: - About the role: description of company and role overview. The posting includes a paragraph about Rockland Trust, then "Rockland Trust is seeking a Fraud Prevention Investigator I to join...". That's about the role. We'll include that as About the role. - Responsibilities: The "Duties & Responsibilities" list includes many bullet points: Regulatory Knowledge, Case Investigations, Investigative Expertise, Judgment and Compliance, Liaison and Support, Strategy and Implementation, Process Improvement, Additional Duties. We'll put each as
- .
- Requirements: The "Required Skills & Experience" includes education, experience with Verafin, interpersonal, communication, banking functions, etc. Could be considered Requirements. Also maybe Qualifications? The instruction says we can have sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide which to include based on content. We have a list of required skills/experience. Could split into Requirements (education, experience) and Skills (specific abilities). But we must not create thin sections. Better to combine into one section maybe "Requirements" covering both education/experience and skills. However we have separate headings allowed: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to include only those with real specific content. The posting includes "Required Skills & Experience" which includes both education/experience and skills. Could treat as Requirements. Could also split: Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (the bullet list of abilities). But we need to avoid thin sections. Let's see if we can make two substantive sections: Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (the list of abilities). Both have multiple items.
Also we have Benefits & Culture section: includes benefits list. That's Benefits.
Schedule: The posting includes schedule: "This position is Scheduled to work 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM, Monday through Friday, with flexibility to work additional or adjusted hours as needed based on business needs, including occasional shifts ending as late as 9:00 PM." That's schedule.
Pay: The posting includes "Pay Transparency Compensation for this role will be based on a variety of factors...". It mentions salary range posted reflects company's good-faith estimate. It does not give actual numbers. It says "Actual compensation may vary." This is vague; but it's still some content about pay. The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The posting does state something about pay: "Compensation for this role will be based on a variety of factors, including skills, experience, education, and internal equity. The salary range posted reflects the company’s good‑faith estimate of the range for this position at the time of posting. Actual compensation may vary. In addition to base salary, certain positions may be eligible for additional compensation, including commissions, incentive awards or stipends." This is not a specific range but it's still some info. It's not "not specified" but it's generic. However it's still substantive? It says salary range posted reflects estimate; but they didn't actually give numbers. It's still somewhat vague but it's not placeholder like "varies". It says "Actual compensation may vary." Might be considered filler? The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). The phrase "Actual compensation may vary." is similar to "varies". Might be considered filler. However they also say "The salary range posted reflects the company’s good‑faith estimate of the range for this position at the time of posting." That implies there is a salary range posted elsewhere (maybe in the job posting but not included in the snippet). Since we don't have the actual numbers, we cannot include a specific range. The instruction says do not create Pay section unless the posting actually states them. It does state something about pay, albeit vague. I'd lean to include a Pay section with the provided sentences, as it's substantive (they mention base salary, additional compensation). It's not just "varies". It's more detail. I'll include.
Schedule: we have specific schedule details, so include Schedule section.
Benefits: we have benefits list, include Benefits.
Now we need to format.
We must not include any boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, accessibility, etc. Remove those lines.
Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal, scam-warning, application instructions.
We must preserve all substantive information.
Let's extract substantive content.
