Lost my job as phone receptionist/mail specialist plus did errands for the business as well.
Never earned my license as an agent but I understood the way of quoting rates.
They changed the phone system that decreased the calls and the business.
It’s been over a month. Seeking jobs outside of insurance.

I’m really sorry to hear that—I know how difficult it can be to lose your job unexpectedly. I would suggest continuing to look for receptionist or assistant-type roles. There are plenty of opportunities like that outside of the insurance industry.

Since you were kind of doing it anyway, I would actually look into virtual assistance as in you being a virtual assistant.

If you want to eventually move out of receptionist or assistant roles, choose an industry your interested in. I started in reception and customer service but was able to move into other roles over time.

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!
