Up Your Cool Game, Consider a Career in Insurance

Want to be cool? Want stability? Growth opportunities? Well, you’re in the right place, because all the coolest people work in insurance!

February is Insurance Careers month, and we thought of no better way to celebrate than to share why working in the insurance industry is such a great gig!

Whether you are just starting your career journey or looking to make a career change, insurance is most certainly a field we would recommend exploring. Let us tell you why:

Job stability. The insurance industry is resilient because it serves essential needs; outside of an apocalypse happening, people will always need insurance. Whether it be healthcare, property, auto, life, business, or some combination of them, insurance careers are insulated from fluctuating market conditions.

Opportunities for growth. The insurance world evolves just like every other industry, and as a result, it values people who continue their education in the field. Obtaining new designations and getting additional licensing will make it easy to advertise yourself throughout the industry. Building your expertise will also significantly enhance your growth potential. While many start in the industry at a customer service level, it is very common for entry-level positions to progress through the ranks, leading to opportunities across different areas of the insurance field (underwriting, claims adjusting, loss prevention, risk management, etc.). In short, if you’re considering insurance as a career direction, the benefits of working in insurance include a roadmap of many opportunities.

Helping people. Before the stampede of naysayers starts storming us, at its roots, the purpose of insurance is to help people facing significant losses. An insurance professional’s main goal is to help individuals and businesses prepare for the unexpected and recover when it happens. It can be incredibly fulfilling when you are able to help clients work through a severely stressful time. At their core, many insurance roles offer peace of mind and practical solutions, ensuring people have support when they need it most.

While we recognize insurance may not be the best fit for everyone, it is a pretty great fit for all of us here at Pioneer! #insurancenerds
