Daily Claims

With the hurricane season a bust so far, many insurance adjusters out there want to work daily claims. Daily claims are everyday claims for things like fires, burst pipes, and other events that aren't associated with a catastrophe. I know many adjusters that make their living on daily claims.

The hurdle to getting work as a new claims adjuster is being trusted by the company and meeting a need the company has. With that in mind, here are some things that can make you more attractive as a daily claims adjuster.

• Ask the HR department or claims manager where they need adjusters in your state. If it's 3 hours away, offer to take claims in that area without charging millage for the first few claims.
• Make sure you're licensed in the state.
• Attend any insurance or adjusting training offered by the company, especially if it's free.
  
• If you get a chance to run claims, focus on excellent customer service, fast turnaround, and noting the file/communicating with the examiner. Excelling at these activities will make you stand out and lead to more claims!
