Nice video! I was interviewing for call centre with 1 year of experience. I have no idea what I did, but the interviewer said it twice during the interview that I was a strong candidate, and offered me a choice of four of their clients within 24 hours. One of them was insurance, claim renewals and that the company would pay for me to learn APA ( the certificate that allows an agent to work in insurance) worth €1000 and I was floored. It got me thinking about insurance in general and hopefully this is the start of a fantastic career!

Hey!! Great video! I have 5 years experience and worked as a field auto damage appraiser , liability and bodily injury Adjuster. I would say field auto Claims was toughest for me. Did 3 years. Outrageous body shops demands can be get old after a while. But the freedom to work your schedule in the field is the best. Liability was an easy job to me once I got over my rough learning curve. I would say do this role for atleast 1-1.5 years and promote up to bodily injury. Unrepresented Bodily injury was fun for me. Because of my auto damage exp, trying to negotiate injury settlement was fun. Promoting from liability only to bodily injury allowed me more availability and my workload decreased and was more manageable. The next step would be attorney rep or casualty. Didn't make it to this stage. I left claims and currently obtained a role as underwriting assistant for an excess surplus mid market. For whatever reason , it's hard to get into underwriting programs or roles!. So I took the assistant route and they matched my claims salary. Can't wait to learn more about underwriting on the commercial side.

Actuarial "dropout", recent graduate and P&C Product Analyst here- the entry level version of a product manager. (Career progression is Analyst I, II, III, Associate PM, PM, Senior PM) So there is an entry level position for product manager. Also, Senior PMs can see pay bands in the 180,000+ in a MCOL Midwest state. Product Management sets you up for an AVP role, VP role, and executive roles if you do your career right. Very curious why you said Product Management is for introverts, I'm a huge extrovert and 70% of the reason I switched from actuarial (what I got my undergrad in) to product was the product team was much more extroverted and dealt with all kinds of other teams (actuarial, sales, claims, underwriting, etc.) I see Product Management as one of the perfect "explore the P&C industry" jobs, you touch a little bit of everything. Love these videos, starting my CPCU in June!

Thank you for this in depth info! Most of the Product people I’ve met were kinda introverted and happy to have left Underwriting for Product so they don’t have to deal with brokers anymore. Is there significant hiring direct from college into Product Analyst I? And if so which majors do they tend to come from? Also, congrats on starting CPCU! You won’t regret it.

@@InsuranceNerdsthere is significant hiring from college, Product Analysts can come from economics, actuarial science, finance or business backgrounds among many more! There’s one that is a biochem major I believe. A product analyst 1 is considered a fresh out of college job, or where people from other areas inside P&C transfer in from. If you ever have more questions I’m a huge product advocate and would love to connect!

This video is very informative! Love the channel, I decided to obtain my AINS Designation after watching your channel. I’m currently an Account Executive at my company and looking to move up. Hopefully after obtaining AINS and CPCU I can make the big move to an underwriter role at an Insurance Company. The journey continues.

Great video! Randomly stumbled upon this and really enjoyed it! One comment from someone in the specialties side of the industry is that pay wise you make much more, much earlier, in specialties - mainly as a result of how young the specialties side of the house is and how much companies are trying to grow that business. I’ve worked in Political Risk and Cyber and in both of those I know a lot of 26-27 year old making over $150k at large carriers where on the commercial side that comp is usually seen in your mid to late thirties. Aside from that, it was an awesome video!

I worked for several roles in tier C to A, across from Life, Health to P&C. From my understanding, although I am not sure, I think all insurance is the same thing as they share the same principle and core knowledge, except the professional knowledge in different field 😅

I believe the product manager is a combined role of (actuary + underwriter + claim rep + service rep + speakperson), as product is the baby of the product manger, so you have be a nanny, a doctor and a firefighter...

It depends on what job are you at currently and where you want to go. For most people probably Commercial Underwriter since it's a great stepping stone into a lot of other areas of insurance. I'd be happy to help you come up with a plan at ChatWithTony.com
