Newly licensed Insurance job search / LinkedIn tips
Just took my course and passed the P&C exam recently with no background in insurance and am beginning to prepare for the job search. I’m planning to work on my LinkedIn profile this week as it seems to yield more results and opportunities than Indeed/job search websites do.
Wanted to see if anyone has tips for how to make a Linked In profile appealing when you don’t have experience in the field (I’ve spend most of my adulthood in machining/ aerospace technician trades). Before getting licensed I was casually applying but it seemed a lot of places using AI would
kick my application out just based off qualifications alone.
For reference I’m a 33 y/o male in Indianapolis looking for ideally a commercial underwriting assistant role, but am open to whatever gets my foot in the door! I’m confident in my personality and interviewing skills but feel like I need to position myself better so my resume even gets considered.
Any help is appreciated!
