We need to produce HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. Let's parse the posting. Company Details: description of company, product suite. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for description of role. The posting includes responsibilities, duties, qualifications, etc. There's no explicit "About the role" but we can treat the initial company details as about the role? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. So we need to decide which sections have content. We have: - Responsibilities: there is a "Responsibilities" heading in the posting: "Responsibilities The Underwriter/Sr. Underwriter will manage all related underwriting tasks..." So we can include Responsibilities section. - Duties And Responsibilities Include But Are Not Limited To: a list of duties. This is essentially responsibilities details. Could be merged under Responsibilities. - Qualifications: there is a "Qualifications" heading: "Qualifications Bachelor’s Degree and minimum of 5-7 years..." So include Qualifications. - Skills: not explicitly a heading, but qualifications include skills like "Advanced product knowledge...", "Empathy...", "An agile team player...". Could be placed under Skills section if we want. But we need to only include sections when posting has real specific content. There's skill-like content; we could create a Skills section. However we might also incorporate those into Qualifications. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine qualifications and skills into one Qualifications section. But they gave separate possible headings; we can decide to include Qualifications only, and not Skills if content overlaps. - Benefits: there is a section: "The company offers a competitive compensation plan and robust benefits package for full time regular employees including: Competitive Base Salary Eligible to participate in annual discretionary bonus Benefits include: Health, dental, vision, dental, life, disability, wellness, paid time off, 401(k) and profit-sharing plans". Also mentions "Competitive Base Salary". So we have benefits content. Also Pay: "The actual salary for this position will be determined by a number of factors..." That's pay info but not specific numbers. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state benefits (list). It does mention compensation plan and base salary but not specific numbers. It says "Competitive Base Salary". That's still a statement about pay, albeit vague. Should we include Pay section? 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. Here they state "Competitive Base Salary" and "eligible to participate in annual discretionary bonus". That's not filler like "commensurate with experience"? It's somewhat vague but still a statement. I'd say we can include Pay section with that content. However they also say "The actual salary for this position will be determined by a number of factors..." That's also vague. Might be considered filler. But they also gave "Competitive Base Salary". I'd include Pay section with that sentence. - Schedule: no mention of schedule (full-time regular employees implied but not explicit schedule). So we should not create Schedule section. - About the role: we could include a short paragraph summarizing the role from the company details and responsibilities. The posting includes "Company Details" describing Berkley Management Protection. That could be considered "About the role" or "About the company". Since we need to avoid filler, we can include About the role with the company description and maybe a brief role summary. The posting includes "Company Details Berkley Management Protection offers a modular suite..." That's substantive. So we can create About the role section with that. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. We need to use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Also remove "The Company is an equal employment opportunity employer." and "Additional Company Details We do not accept unsolicited resumes from third party recruiting agencies or firms." Also remove sponsorship details? That's not boilerplate but maybe not needed? It's about sponsorship not offered. Could be considered relevant but maybe not essential? It's a detail about sponsorship. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep sponsorship details if it's substantive. However it's not under a standard heading; we could include it in a short paragraph maybe under About the role or separate? There's no heading for it. Could be placed in a

    after Qualifications? But we need to avoid creating new headings not in list. We could just include it as a paragraph under About the role or maybe under Qualifications? It's not about qualifications. Better to add a short paragraph under About the role after company details. Also remove duplicated lines: there is duplicate "Ownership of the lifecycle of the submission including quoting, filing all relevant documents, binding, issuing and obtaining signed and executed applications." appears twice. We should keep only one instance. Also duplicate "vision, dental" appears twice in benefits list; we should deduplicate. Now let's extract content. Company Details paragraph: "Berkley Management Protection offers a modular suite of management liability products through the Grove℠, their bespoke and easy to use platform tailored towards independent agents. Their Trellis Management Liability Portfolio℠ of coverages include directors and officers, employment practices, fiduciary, cyber, crime and miscellaneous professional liability." That's About the role content. Responsibilities: The posting has a "Responsibilities" paragraph: "The Underwriter/Sr. Underwriter will manage all related underwriting tasks for new and renewal accounts required in assigned regions to promote written premium growth and favorable loss ratio results. The role will work closely with the TMs, AVPs, RVPs across assigned regions. The role is expected to have increased involvement in the management, development and training of junior underwriting staff and increased responsibility for the business results of BMP. This role will also have significant influence as to the workflow and execution of a number of strategic initiatives. This role may be responsible for managing a team of underwriters." Then there is a "Duties And Responsibilities Include But Are Not Limited To" list. We need to extract each duty item, removing duplicates. Let's list them: - Responsible for new & renewal accounts which focuses on underwriting and pricing risks in accordance with BMP’s business rules and personal underwriting authority. - Ownership of the lifecycle of the submission including quoting, filing all relevant documents, binding, issuing and obtaining signed and executed applications. - Support consistent underwriting best practices, in accordance with underwriting guidelines, to ensure rating, pricing, profitability, and structuring adequacy. - Responsible for assigning and managing the work of a team of underwriters. - Assist underwriters in executing on strategic initiatives. - Provide support and develop solutions to their issues/concerns (system, guidelines, training, reports, new project request, product amendments). - Assist underwriters in collaborating with Territory Managers, AVPs and RVPs to target desirable accounts. - Identify the need for and manage special underwriting projects as needed. - Fully engage with agency personnel by providing superior customer service. - In conjunction with TM’s, AVP’s and RVP’s will establish a workflow for renewals that will allow for “Insurance with Ease” for our agents. - Work closely with the TM’s, AVPs and RVP’s to establish and implement a sales culture - In collaboration with TM’s, AVP’s and RVP’s, creates the workflow that will establish the best user experience for the independent agent in the onboarding process. - Ownership of the lifecycle of the submission including quoting, filing all relevant documents, binding, issuing and obtaining signed and executed applications. (duplicate) - Manages the submission queue for all regions which requires a strong attention to detail. - Enters submissions in the system and accurately assigns them to the correct underwriter as well as filing documents accordingly. - Establish strong relationships with agents in driving mutually beneficial results through agency planning, production and growth. - Monitor competitor’s offerings and emerging industry issues. - Embrace relevant technology and actively improves skillset through formal and informal learning. - Serves as a resource for new and innovative ideas to continually challenge the status quo. - Other duties as assigned. We need to deduplicate the duplicate ownership line (keep one). Also note there is a slight punctuation variation: "Work closely with the TM’s, AVPs and RVP’s to establish and implement a sales culture" missing a period maybe. We'll keep as is. Now Qualifications: "Bachelor’s Degree and minimum of 5-7 years of management liability underwriting or related experience at an insurance company or agency or equivalent combination of education and experience. Experience contributing on a high performing marketing/ sales team in a high growth, fast paced environment. Advanced product knowledge within the Management Liability suite of products (D&O, Cyber, EPL, Crime, Fiduciary, and MPL). Empathy and understanding of the needs of our independent agents. Will be an advocate for Berkley Management Protection customers and as such, will be passionate about their brand experience. An agile team player with strong written and verbal communication, negotiation and interpersonal skills. Demonstrated ability to self-organize, prioritize and request help when needed. Execution-oriented with attention to details driven by natural curiosity and competitive spirit." Also there is line: "The Company is an equal employment opportunity employer." Remove as boilerplate. Now Benefits: "The company offers a competitive compensation plan and robust benefits package for full time regular employees including: Competitive Base Salary Eligible to participate in annual discretionary bonus Benefits include: Health, dental, vision, dental, life, disability, wellness, paid time off, 401(k) and profit-sharing plans" We need to deduplicate dental duplicate. Also note "Competitive Base Salary" and "Eligible to participate in annual discretionary bonus" are part of benefits? They are compensation. We'll treat them as benefits items. Thus benefits list items: - Competitive Base Salary - Eligible to participate in annual discretionary bonus - Health - Dental - Vision - Life - Disability - Wellness - Paid time off - 401(k) - Profit-sharing plans We should also maybe include "robust benefits package" as prose before list. Now Pay: "The actual salary for this position will be determined by a number of factors, including the scope, complexity and location of the role; the skills, education, training, credentials and experience of the candidate; and other conditions of employment." Also earlier: "Competitive Base Salary" already captured in benefits. But Pay section could include that sentence about salary determination. We'll include that as prose. Now Sponsorship Details: "Sponsorship not Offered for this Role". This is substantive. We could include as a short paragraph maybe under About the role or separate? There's no standard heading for sponsorship. We could add a

    after Qualifications maybe. But we must not create new headings not in list. So we can just add a paragraph under About the role or maybe under Qualifications? It's not about qualifications. Perhaps we add a separate

    after Qualifications but before Benefits, with no heading. That's allowed: we can have prose without heading. The instruction: Use

    for section headings,
    • for any list,

      for prose.
