Liability Trial Counsel
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections where there is real specific content. We have Pay (salary range). Benefits (list). Responsibilities (list). Requirements/Qualifications/Skills (maybe combine). We need to decide which headings to use. The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can choose among those. We should not create empty sections. We have content for About the role? The "Who Are We?" is company overview, not exactly role. "What Is the Opportunity?" describes role. Could map to About the role. We'll include About the role heading with that content.
Responsibilities: "What Will You Do?" list.
Requirements: maybe combine "What Will Our Ideal Candidate Have?" and "What is a Must Have?" as Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. Could split: Requirements (experience), Qualifications (education/license), Skills (specific abilities). But we can just have one Requirements section with all. However instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay. That's five sections.
We must not include Schedule (no info). Not include Skills separate if we combine.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for responsibilities list, requirements list, benefits list.
We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from each section.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal. At end there is "Employment Practices..." and "Travelers reserves the right..." and "If you are a candidate..." etc. Those are boilerplate; we should drop them. Also "To learn more about our comprehensive benefit programs please visit ..." maybe considered boilerplate? It's a link to benefits; but it's still part of benefits? Might be considered navigation; but it's a link to benefits page. Probably drop as it's not substantive benefit detail. Also "Target Openings1" is metadata; we can fold into short
or drop. Probably drop.
We need to keep Salary Range and compensation overview text. The compensation overview includes description about base salary range being nationwide market range etc. That's substantive; we should keep as prose under Pay section.
We need to keep Benefits details: Health Insurance, Retirement (401k match, Paying it Forward Savings Program, Pension Plan), Paid Time Off, Wellness Program, Volunteer Encouragement. Keep all details.
We need to keep "Who Are We?" description (company promise). That's about the company; we can put under About the role? Actually About the role should describe the role, not company. But we have "What Is the Opportunity?" which describes role. We'll use About the role heading for that content. The "Who Are We?" could be considered company overview; maybe we could include as part of About the role? But it's not role-specific. However we have no other place for company description; maybe we can include it as a short paragraph under About the role before describing opportunity. That would preserve all info. It's not boilerplate. So we can combine.
Thus About the role section will contain: "Who Are We? Taking care of our customers..." plus "What Is the Opportunity? Travelers offers the strength..." etc.
Now Responsibilities: list from "What Will You Do?" with bullet points.
Requirements: combine "What Will Our Ideal Candidate Have?" and "What is a Must Have?" plus maybe "Target Openings". We'll produce a list.
We need to ensure we don't repeat content. Let's extract.
