Property Adjuster (Northern Shenandoah Valley)
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — 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. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have:
- Salary Range: $50,327.00 - $100,843.00 with explanation. That's Pay. So we can have a Pay section.
- Benefits: described in detail. So Benefits section.
- Position Summary: could be About the role.
- Duties and Responsibilities: Responsibilities.
- Qualifications: Qualifications.
- Capabilities: maybe Skills? The list of capabilities (Values Diversity Nimble Learning etc.) could be Skills.
- Additional info: "Ability to drive/travel regularly within the assigned territory" maybe part of responsibilities.
- Also mention "company car and equipment to work from home will be provided". Could be part of Benefits or Responsibilities.
- Also mention "Tentative Program Start Date: 1/4/2027" etc. That's part of training program details; could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section? But we should avoid thin sections. Could incorporate into About the role.
- Also mention "Class Dates at the Technical Learning Center in Erie, Pa: 1/4/27- 1/152/8- 2/193/22- 3/26" seems garbled but it's specific content. Could be part of About the role.
- Also mention "Check out this video..." maybe not needed? It's not boilerplate but it's a link; could be considered extra but maybe we keep as part of About the role? It's not essential but it's substantive. However it's a link to a video; we could keep as a
with link.
- Also mention "The first five duties listed are the functions identified as essential to the job." That's part of responsibilities.
- Also mention "Regular and predictable attendance is an essential job function." etc.
- Also mention "Capabilities Values Diversity Nimble Learning Self-Development Collaborates Customer Focus Information Management Skills Cultivates Innovation Instills Trust Job-Specific Knowledge Optimizes Work Processes (IC) Ensures Accountability Decision Quality". That's a list of capabilities; could be Skills.
- Also mention "Physical Requirements Use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is required for this role. Ability to move over 50 lbs using lifting aide equipment; Often (20-50%) Climbing/accessing heights; Moderate (30-40%) Driving; Frequent (50-80%) Lifting/Moving 0-20 lbs; Often (20-50%) Lifting/Moving 20-50 lbs; Often (20-50%) Manual Keying/Data Entry/inputting information/computer use; Often (20-50%) Pushing/Pulling/moving objects, equipment with wheels; Occasional (". This is truncated but still content. Could be a section? Possibly "Physical Requirements" but not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Physical Requirements could go under Requirements or Qualifications? Probably under Requirements. But we have a Qualifications section already; we could incorporate physical requirements into Qualifications or Requirements. Since we have Qualifications, we could add a subsection? But we must only use headings from list; we could put physical requirements under Qualifications as part of that section's prose.
- Also mention "Designations and/or Licenses Willingness to obtain and maintain any required licenses.Successful completion of Associate in Claims (AIC) program preferred.Valid driver's license and good driving record required." That's also qualifications.
Thus we can have sections: About the role (position summary + program details), Responsibilities (duties), Qualifications (education, experience, licenses, physical requirements), Skills (capabilities list), Benefits, Pay.
We should not include Schedule unless specified; not present.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We need to use
for each section heading.
Inside sections, use
for prose,
- for lists.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can combine similar info.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. The posting didn't have explicit EEO but we should avoid any such lines if present; none seen.
We need to be careful to not include duplicated lines.
Let's extract substantive content:
