When you hear insurance, most people think of 2 things.
-selling insurance, and insurance companies not paying for your claim.
I personally believe that the insurance industry is not a really well respected job. It gets a bad rap, has a negative connotation, and the skills learned are only applicable in the insurance industry.
I currently work in a call center doing claims, and would like to get out.
My goal is really to get a more respected job title, decent pay( no need for six figures like 99% of the people here), and learn a skill that is valued not only in my current job, but that has a need for other companies as well.
example, all companies need accountants, budget analysts, MIS people, etc etc. Only insurance companies need insurance adjusters.
I'm not mentioning my education because I goofed off in college and earned a BA in mathematics, and below average GPA.
My work experience is good though. 3 years in the insurance industry as a claims adjuster, and have been a supervisor for almost a year.
I just dont know where to start. I"m not looking for a science career as I do not have the degree, but I want to get into the business sides of things, i.e corporate business, budget analysis, finance etc etc.
How do I move into this? with my experience, am I just destined to be in the insurance industry forever? Do I need to start over as an entry level person?
