Attention All LTC Underwriters

Remote Underwriting Jobs – Try Job.com
You are looking for a job and hopefully will find that dream position where you can work from home. In my research I’ve discovered that remote underwriting jobs are rarely advertised as such. Remote jobs are out there but you have to search them out. I’ve added a link to http://www.job.com for your searching pleasure. Try this little experiment:
- Select insurance as your category
- All locations
- Add “remote underwriter” as optional keywords, and
- Search using any of these words, all words, and exact phrase.
You get nothing. Now try your search this way:
- Select insurance as your category
- All locations
- Add “telecommute yes”
- Search using exact phrase
You get hits. When I did this search I got 23 hits plus 2 from the web. This is also a good example of how different companies use different job websites for their postings. Interestingly, all 23 jobs are from the same employer.
Read a Book a Week – Get (almost) Free Books
What do you do with books after they have been read?
- Build a library
- Clutter the house or apartment
- Rent a storage unit
Like most avid readers I like to keep a lot of my books. So I’m into bullet points 1 & 2. But to avoid bullet point 3 you need a plan. My plan is to give most of my books away. I’ve created a sidebar link that will take you to a list of available books on Bookins. The only cost to you will be S&H charges. Check it out.

Survival Strategies – Time to Get Personal
The insurance industry has shed 8,140 jobs since November 1, 2008. This is according to Bloomberg News and Challenger,
Gray & Christmas, the Chicago-based outplacement firm. I intend to continue writing posts on job search sites and articles of interest for underwriters who may be searching for their next opportunity. If you are searching out of necessity feel free to contact me and I’ll do what I can to help.
And with this post, I’ve started another intermittent series titled Survival Strategies. I hope you find this useful and best of luck in finding what you’re looking for.
Another Job Search Engine for Remote, Virtual, Telecommute Underwriting
I’ve added a link to The Job Spider search engine. During the course of my research I’ve noticed this engine finds positions not advertised elsewhere. I’m not saying this is a better search engine, just different. Remember to use different key words when searching for positions. For example, the words remote, virtual, and telecommute may pick up different postings as any of these words are often used to describe those of us who toil from outside of office walls. If you go to this website, watch for the posting dates of the positions. Some are pretty old, and therefore useless. But definitely check out the Scam Awareness page. This is well worth reading.
