- 2Must be based in the United States and currently employed (or very recently employed) in the role.
- 3Your core duties must have directly involved claims handling — general insurance or office experience alone does not qualify.
- 4Familiarity with the day-to-day responsibilities described on the ONET summary page for this occupation.
Who Should Apply
This opportunity is ideal for a practicing claims professional who wants to ensure their occupation is accurately represented. You should have hands-on experience evaluating claims, working with policyholders, and navigating insurance regulations. If you're passionate about standardizing job descriptions and enjoy sharing your expertise, this is for you.
Salary Insight
