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.

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.

Remote Underwriting Jobs – Look Beyond

Search Jobs, Resumes, Recruiting & Career Site – Beyond.com

There are a a ton of job sites on the internet and it should come as no surprise that companies must pick and choose where to place their ads.  For the job seeker, the problem is finding the website that hopefully lists the type of position you’re looking for.  I prefer employment sites that utilize meta-search engines.  If you’re searching for that ultimate remote underwriting job (or any new position) I suggest trying Beyond.com.  I have been playing around with this website and so far, the results are impressive.  Beyond claims to have search capabilities for over 15,000 niche employment sites.
