How To Find Insurance Job Openings Online

Submitted by: Barbara McDonagh

The situation of unemployment had really blown out of proportions during the global recession. The reason for this was that every firm was trying to reduce its expenses, and the best way to do this is to downsize in terms of human resources and production capacity. However, since the recovery of the global economy began, the job sector is looking up. One industry that is driving this employment drive is the insurance industry, and the reason for this is mainly that the industry falls under the tertiary sector. There are a host of insurance companies looking for potential candidates at any point in time. Even with so many job vacancies, people tend to find it difficult to get insurance jobs because the moment the vacancy shows up, it is snapped up by someone. In different words, even though there are a lot of vacancies, there is even more competition. This poses the obvious question of how can you find high quality insurance job openings to apply to? The answer to this question is two pronged i.e. you need to go about looking for such jobs in two ways. The following are details.

1. Passive:

The passive way of looking for job vacancies in the insurance sector is suited to those people who already have a job but are looking for better opportunities. Under this method, you will not look for jobs yourself and would only put yourself out there. This would lead to you being approached by insurance companies and hiring consultancies with job vacancies. As is obvious, if you only wish to be passive in your search then you need to have a very strong work profile accompanied by a high quality resume. In this method, all you have to do is to upload your resume on a variety of job vacancy websites, so as to make it available to candidate seekers.

2. Active:

The other method is the active method where you are proactive about your search. This method would require the following from you:

a. You will first have to go through online job vacancy websites on a regular basis in order to find potential employers and job vacancy posts. These websites are uploaded at a very high frequency which means that you will have to be on your toes with regard to your search.

. Along with this, you would have to find out all the potential employers in your area, locality, city or region and then mail your resumes to them. The best way to do this would be to search for insurance firms on Google and then mail your resumes on the addresses listed on such firms’ official websites. This would put you in the candidate database of these firms which would improve your chances of getting a job.

Ideally, if you are already in a job then you would have to just use the passive technique because it would be very unlikely that you would have a lot of time. On the other hand, if you want an insurance job immediately then you should undertake both the methods.
