I owned a Nationwide Agency for 20 years and had over 6,000 policies. I sold it in 2016 and have been teaching school and coaching high school football and basketball. I recently obtained my Chaplains Certification and want to change careers. I am looking for a job as a Life Insurance Claims Associate. Any suggestions as to how I can find a position?

That’s a great question! Claims associate roles in life insurance can definitely be tough to break into—especially if companies are only hiring internally or require very specific experience.

If you’re open to a different path within the life insurance industry, I’d love to share what I’m doing with AO Globe Life. It’s not claims-based—it’s on the front end helping families get the coverage they need—but it’s fully remote, provides all the training, and doesn’t require prior insurance experience or a license to start. Plus, there’s uncapped earning potential and residual income.

Might be a good stepping stone or even a full career shift. Happy to share more if you’re curious!

I ignored the negative comments and we moved the conversation along. Not talking about that anymore!

Has anyone ever asked to renegotiate their salary after starting a job? I’m 2 months into my new job and I have far more responsibilities than what I was told. It’s a lot different than what was relayed in the posting and during the interviews. Additionally, they hired my counter part in as a senior manager which is at least $30k more than what I make. My peer has more experience so I expect that but I feel that I should be paid more, however I don’t want to leave a bad impression… any advice?
