How important is CRM experience when applying to insurance companies? I've worked with a homegrown system before, but nothing like Salesforce. Just wondering if hiring managers typically look for that or train new hires on whatever they use.

It could matter, but it may not be disqualifying. Most organizations will want to do their own training anyway, just to make sure things are done their way. This would all depend upon the position, of course, but it's probably a safe assumption that new hires would be given the company's preferred training.

I think it depends on the role. For more senior or revenue-heavy roles, they might want Salesforce specifically so you can hit the ground running. For entry-level or mid-level roles, I’ve seen plenty of postings where they’re fine with training you. I’d frame your experience as “CRM experience” and not downplay it just because it wasn’t Salesforce.
