This month we had the pleasure of hosting a booth on the California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) campus to talk insurance careers with soon-to-be graduates and alumni. It had us thinking a lot about why every college graduate should consider building a career in the ever-evolving insurance industry. Without further ado, here are the top five reasons:
- The insurance industry is growing. There are vast opportunities for college graduates looking for dynamic and challenging careers.
- The industry provides job security. This goes along with the growing demand for insurance coverage, making it a perfect field for long-term career growth and stability.
- There is a wide range of roles available in the industry including risk management, claims, underwriting, actuarial science, marketing, and IT, to name a few.
- The industry is diverse, meaning college graduates are more likely to find job positions that suit their personality, background, and skill sets, providing a chance to develop new skills.
- The insurance industry offers the chance to make a significant impact on people’s lives, protecting individuals and businesses from loss while simultaneously building and maintaining relationships with clients in a fast-paced and challenging work environment.
