1. most companies are going to require at LEAST a 2 yr degree. after that its up to you to go out and hunt the job just like any other profession. try looking on some website for the companies you are interested in working for. a lot of them have open jobs listed. Also contact some independent adjusters.
2. Most insurance companies offer paid training if you are hired. Claims processing jobs are usually entry level jobs that don't require prior experience.
3. You start in the mail room, and work your way up. One class in claims handling isn't going to turn you into a licensed adjuster.
4. You'll get the job easily Bcz. every company not look into it. I have found the same in http://www.dulawat.com , pls. have a look.
5. Check on company websites for claims trainee positions. A lot of people I know started in the insurance industry by working as an adjuster. There are insurance companies out there that have claims trainee positions. When I worked at an insurance company, we had a person who came from a retail background start out in claims. I know for a fact that GEICO hires entry-level claims adjusters. I'm not sure if this is a company you would be interested in, but I know a guy that worked retail before he went to work with GEICO and he is doing all right. I've heard that Liberty Mutual does the same, although I don't know anyone that works there. It will take a bit of work, but check the company websites for open positions in claims. A lot of companies hire entry-level claims adjusters.
