Limitless careers in insurance
Students learned about the exciting prospects of an insurance career at a panel discussion co-hosted by the Jacobson Group on October 25.
The insurance industry nationally is looking for top millennials to fill emerging in-demand positions.
Responding to this growing need, the College offers classes focused on insurance and co-hosted a panel discussion with The Jacobson Group, a leading recruitment firm in the industry.
“The insurance industry provides a variety of rewarding and advancing careers, however this industry ranks toward the bottom of industries young professionals seek when looking for employment,” said Abbe Sodikoff of Jacobson. “As an industry that is faced with huge talent demands, we are focused on changing the image.”
As one of the founding members of the Insurance Careers Trifecta, Jacobson is part of a grass roots collaboration to spread the message that the industry offers careers which are stable, rewarding, and limitless.
