Hello, just found your channel...very helpful...I'm in the interview progress for a staff adjuster with working a territory with the possibility of a company car.
That’s awesome! I wish you all the best. You will find the company car is a great perk. You can use it for personal use and they should supply you with a gas card. If you think about it this will be be saving you money that would otherwise being going for a car note or gas. This will give you an opportunity to save or pay down credit card bills. This is your time to shine! God bless!
Thanks so much for encouragement...excited to embark on a brand new endeavor...if I can get over the awkward stage, should be ok...lol
I’m new and really need direction. I really want to go in the field
What are some staff adjustment companies that hire new people?
Hello, I am a new subscriber. Thanks for this information. I don't know if I miss it, but could you list the agencies that are looking for staff adjusters.
State Farm is one.
Great video. Im interested in staff adjuster. Im moving to another Mexico, and I’d like to know if I could remote from Mexico. Thank you so much for the video ❤
Hello! If you get hired as a remote adjuster, all you need is there internet to do your job. So it is possible. I always tell people to apply for any remote job in any state. I would just check with the company that hires you!
A lot of companies will not let you work outside of the country due to security issues
Thank you so much for sharing. I have been considering entering the insurance field. Any advice?
👋 thanks for watching, I would suggest starting as a desk examiner for an insurance firm to get started and gain training and to get your license! Those jobs are usually remote work from home as well. Check Indeed!
Oh nooo 😂🤣😂 Mr Bones and Thomas
Great video. They say training but I either get no reply or the one that did said I didn’t meet requirements. These were trainee positions but apparently you need experience 😂🤷🏽♀️
Try Farmers Insurance or Mercury.
@@theclaimsadjusterchronicle2911 thank you
Thank you so much for some great information,, I just received my florida license 🎉🎉. I am ready to get my for in the door, I’ve been a hairstylist now for 8+ years so my resume is in need of an upgrade. Would you say I could apply to the list of firms you listed without a resume?
Hi thanks for watching. I would say definitely have a resume ready even if you don't have experience in handling claims. I would just focus on customer service and list any certifications you may have. Also apply for entry level claims positions with carriers. They will accept you without experience and train you. Please stay tuned for more videos to come!
Hi I was wondering if you could advise what is the best state to get your license in to do remote staff adjusting? Thank you!
I would be new to the industry. Can I get a desk remote job just starting out?
Is it hard to get a staff adjuster position with no prior experience ? I have my bachelors and I’m currently a case planner. I’m looking to leave and start applying to claims jobs within the next few months
You mentioned that some firms will offer to sponsor you for the pre-licensing course…do you happen to know any that are currently offering? Did you go through a company that paid for your training?
Usually the insurance company that hires you will ask if you have your license and if you don’t they will pay for your class. I know for sure Farmers will and National General. I’m not sure who else but if they hire you knowing you don’t have a license that means they will help you.
Hey! Thank you for the content! I am a mom if three, I have been thinking of adjusting for the last two years but I am scared to make the jump. My current job (of 7yrs) is my family’s stability… plus my current job is flexible as needed (PTO for vacay, doctor’s appointments, school events) I guess I’m struggling with the what ifs … would you recommend starting as staff to feel it out ? If so, do you recommend a particular company?
Hello! I would definitely recommend starting as staff for the benefits for your family. Try State Farm, Progressive, Home Owners of America or Farmers. Please stay tuned for more up to date info!
Thank you! I am a subscriber so I will surely stay tuned in for more up-to-date information. Thanks again.
@@theclaimsadjusterchronicle2911 Hi! Did you pay for your own training as an adjuster?
@@encouragingthesaints no the company I worked for paid for all my licensing!
@@theclaimsadjusterchronicle2911 Wow! That's fantastic.
Great information, thanks. Trying to go into the profession but don’t have any experience for now, am done with my 40hours course but yet to take my license exam. Need deployment so get some experience, think you can be of great assistance. Will be expecting your response, thanks.
I would recommend starting with a insurance firm to get that experience as if you start as an independent on a deployment they expect you to already have experience or get experienced on your own
I’ve had the hardest time getting on as a staff adjuster, being newly licensed here in Texas.
Hi, Ma'am even I am also a trainee claim adjuster and I have certain queries pls let me know how can I connect with you!!
Good afternoon! Do you have a way to be contacted with further questions? I'm in the DFW area and recently obtained my adjuster license and completed the Xactimate training. I'm opened to desk or field adjusting, but would have to get practice with going up on roofs due to fear of heights (I want to overcome that fear)...... Trying to think of ways to get over by maybe indoor rock climbing, reaching out to a ladder assist company for "shadowing" , etc. Do you have any recommendations?
Hello please send me your email address! We can connect.
What’s the best course to go through ? Adjusters
I didn’t take a class on my own. The company I started with had a class for us. I would do an internet search on prices as they should all be about the same and geared towards you passing.
I have my license with no experience. I really would prefer to work in office, just to learn the business. Is that possible these days?
Hello . I have no experience but definitely interested in obtaining my license to become an independent adjuster but prefer to work from home. Any tips would be appreciated :)
I would suggest applying for a claims examiner remote position. If it is remote you can live anywhere even if the job is based out of a different state.
I have my license (Georgia) and have put in applications for staff adjuster for a number of companies with zero luck. They want 2 year or more experience.
If you get a license with a company, are you kind of “stuck” with them or are you able to work for different companies?
Hello, the license will be in your name so you can go anywhere!
Are there any good companies you would suggest to start as a staff adjuster?
I would suggest State Farm, State Auto, and Farmers to start with but I would definitely just apply with whomever is hiring. Don't be afraid to throw out bait! Eventually you will get a catch.
How about working for an independent claim asjuster company (not an insurance carrier)?
Hello! Are you still in this field? Also, were you totally field or were you hybrid?
Hello I started in the field then went desk and now back in the field. I like the freedom being in the field gives you.
I just attended a 10 day training at Mocat Adjuster School in Missouri. I got Level 1 certified in Xactimate there and it was definitely a good course overall.
I ended up going staff. I start with State Farm (WCCS Delpoyed) on 3/13. I’m hella excited about it. State Farm actually pays for just about every state’s licensing thru their employee portal, so you save a lot of time and money to get as many as possible while you work for them. I want to get every license I can thru them, and stack my bread until storm season in ‘24. I’ll have a year of viable desk/field experience, and more state licenses than the average adjuster by then. Plenty of independent firms would take me on at that point if I choose to go that route. Or I might end up liking it at Big Red and stay…..🤷🏿♂️
I’ve seen several ppl go independent out the gate as well and do great.
I have an interview with State Farm next week. I'm interviewing for hybrid claim associate, just to get my feet in the door. But what I really want is desk adjuster. I just got my adjusters license three weeks ago so I don't have any experience. I think in my interview next week I'll let the interviewer that I have my adjusters license and I want to train for a desk adjuster position as soon as I can. They don't have any desk claim positions in their job site.
@@padussia The interview won’t be bad. Even if you don’t have claims experience, they just want to hear about similar job duties in your previous line of work. I’m almost at the end of my second week and I really like it so far. Good luck! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.
@@JoNathan-mh8pg Thank you so much for responding. I'm supposed to be working remotely. I hope she considers me and bring me on as an adjuster trainee. How do you like adjusting? And does it pay well?
Ladder?! You go on roofs too?
Sure do! That is a part of being a field adjuster.
I have my Georgia license and have been putting in applications for 3 months with zero luck. They all want 2 years or more experience.
Never give up. There are a lot of companies that will hire fresh people and train them. You can also apply for FNOL positions and move up.
Thank you for your response
I have a question, how do you get on the ia firms roster ????
Just go to each IA website and sign up. The website should have all the details on the process if not a quick phone call can get you the info you need. Once you fill out all the required paperwork and take their required training if any then they will put you on their roster. Once a deployment comes up they send out something like a mass text asking if you are available. Depending on the type of deployment will depend also on who gets the text meaning if you only signed up for property then you will not get a text for an auto position. They usually reach out to the more experienced first then it trickles down. Sometimes newbies get lucky with at home positions with little to none experience especially if the more experienced people are turning down the jobs. Hope this helps.
@@theclaimsadjusterchronicle2911 THANKS
I am so happy for your success!
Thank you. Praises go up to God! It’s a process.
Hello my name is Simone, wanted to ask what city or State do you work in for Staff adjuster?
Hi Simone I’m in Plano Texas and yes there are still desk jobs and some at home desk jobs!
Do you think its better to have your 40 hr training license first. because I filled out from progressive for training and they didn't pick me. I don't know was it because of the assessment
I want to get some training.
Hello! I am not sure what " 40 hour training license " you are referring too but there could be a number of reasons why they didn't pick you. There could have been someone with more experience applying at the same time or maybe you didn't score high enoughon the assessment. But definitely don't give up. Continue to trust in the Lord that the right opportunity will open at the right time! Keep applying! Stay tuned for more information to come to the channel.
@@theclaimsadjusterchronicle2911 Thanks maybe it was the assessment.
@@msisrael439 Same here. Progressive did not choose me, though I had a great interview. I think I am going to study and get the license on my own and just apply to different places.
@@theclaimsadjusterchronicle2911 When you said trust in the Lord, I knew you were the person I was going to be listening to!! I just enrolled in the online adjuster course a couple of hours ago. I am excited about changing job fields and exploring something new. Thanks for all of this helpful information!!
To be honest with you I applied for Progressive many years ago and I felt like I had a great interview as well but wasn’t chosen. So I don’t know what their requirements are. Try places like Liberty Mutual, Farmers, Mercury and USAA. There are others. Don’t give up. I think all companies are looking sometime they don’t require experience. BUT definitely focus on customer service on your resume and application!!
Hi I'm working on transitioning into the field from nursing. Can I contact you for advice
Yes you can. I’ll help answer your questions.
I'm currently taking a 40hr course for GA? What is your home state?
Texas
@@theclaimsadjusterchronicle2911 Thank you Queen. I enjoy the knowledge you share. I'm excited to start.
If we use ladder now we don’t have to get on roofs??!?!😮
That’s correct just make sure you are aware of their fees! There is also a company called Hancock and they do the same thing!
I applied for a training claims position with a couple of companies. I did not get the position, I am thinking about paying for the courses on my own to get licensed, do you think this will give me a better chance as becoming a staff adjuster? I really want to move into this career. I’m praying that one of the companies will give me a chance. Any suggestions?
Hello! Well for a training position they do require you to have experience since you will be training. I would suggest looking for an entry level positions to start. Most companies will pay for you to get your license. But it would not hurt for you to acquire it on your own you would just be out of pocket. Several companies don’t care what your background is as long as you have customer service experience. I have friends who were in retail that got hired. Keep praying and God will open up the right doors!
Thank you for responding! Blessings.
How can I become a desk adjuster
Hello! Do you have any experience or your license yet? You can certainly apply as a staff adjuster with any insurance company that’s hiring. They will hire people with no experience to start at an entry level. They will also train you and pay for you to get your license . So decide if you would like to work on the auto side or property side and start looking. Customer service is a great skill to highlight on your resume!
Hey there I have no experience and interested in desk adjuster for auto but don't know where to even start
@@c.n217 HNY! I would just start by looking for an entry level position with an insurance carrier as they will pay for your license. You can check with the independent adjusting firms to see what they have but they usually want someone with experience and already licensed.
@@c.n217 a good place to start is applying at insurance carriers to gain experience. Indeed is a good search platform. Also there are companies that will help place you at different companies! Good luck and God bless. 2023 is the year for moving forward in our destinies. Continue to trust in God and don’t give up.
