Research covered employer career sites, indexed applicant-tracking-system pages, job boards, official labour statistics, regulator material, industry reporting and a claims-industry podcast transcript.
Ten advertisements are profiled below: five production or technical-capability examples, four management or transformation examples, and one adjacent field-hiring example. Selection favoured responsibilities relevant to the inspection-to-file boundary and disclosed compensation.
How should readers interpret the evidence labels?
| Label | What it establishes | What it does not establish |
|---|---|---|
| Employer page accessible | The employer’s page and its stated application route or status were visible | That recruitment will remain open, or that the position is net-new |
| Indexed employer advertisement | Search indexing exposed the employer’s role description and compensation | A currently functioning application route or a reliable original posting date |
| Job-board advertisement | A board carried identifiable employer-attributed job text | Independent confirmation of requisition approval or current availability |
| Closed or filled | The reviewed page explicitly showed that status | Whether the employer hired, cancelled or reorganised the role, unless stated |
Relative labels such as “posted 15 days ago” were not converted into exact posting dates. Multiple locations and repeated board copies were not counted as separate vacancies. Salary estimates generated by job boards, anonymous salary reports and contractor revenue claims were excluded from the compensation register.
All salary figures are US dollars. Advertised bands are examples, not market medians. Missing posting dates, application status and geographic pay qualifications remain visible rather than being inferred.
