Hello everyone ,
I’m currently working in insurance customer service at an agency. I work in the mortgage department assisting w mortgage changes , payments etc. I’ve been thinking about becoming a claims adjuster most likely for property damage . Is it worth it ??? I hear a lot of talk about how claims adjusting is a lot of work and very demanding but I think my current position has prepared me for the challenge. What are some good companies I maybe should apply for after getting my license?

You will be a perfect fit for a claims adjuster, as you have knowledge and experience in insurance. What you hear is very accurate. The workload is demanding and can be a lot at the time, but if you genuinely aspire to continue working in insurance, go on and apply for an entry-level position. Most companies will help you with licensing by providing the tools necessary.

It sounds like you're passionate about it, and ready for a challenge (which claims is). Those are two of the biggest qualifications and add your skillset and you sound like a great fit. I hope you find somewhere equally as yolked.

Yes it is worth it. I absolutely love it. I think that you will enjoy it. I work for Allstate and I really like it here. We have some great benefits as well.
