Insurance claims adjusters investigate insurance claims and determine how much an insurance company should pay for damages. They inspect property damage to homes, business, autos, planes, boats, etc., interview different people involved, consult with police, hospitals, and more, depending on the type of claim.
Duties of an adjuster include (but are not limited to):Adjusters can work directly for insurance companies usually at an office building or out of their home, an independent adjusting firm traveling to storm locations, or as a public adjuster who represents the policyholder.
The amount you earn as an adjuster can vary:
If you are not a Texas resident and your resident state requires adjusters to be licensed, you must obtain your adjuster license for that state before applying for the Texas license. If you are a resident of a reciprocal state, you will not need to take this class.

Some companies charge $500 for their class. After completing their class, you are required to travel to a testing facility to take a 150-question, computer-based test, drawn from over 1,000 possible questions. Many frustrated students take (and fail) the exam several times.

What do I do now?
This is one of the most frequently asked questions as adjusters earn their license and it is a valid question.
An independent adjuster (IA) can earn a substantial income investigating catastrophe (hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, etc.) claims. The more claims they work, the higher their income, but unless you know someone who can recommend you to a particular company, you may have your license and do very little, if any, claims adjusting.
When a firm deploys you to a storm site, if they have never worked with you before, they may not give you many claims as they do not know what you can or cannot do.
Several factors affect how many claims an adjuster may receive, including,:

"I feel the need to share my success story to be an inspiration for other aspiring students in your classes. I’m happy to share that since I took a class with you to become a licensed adjuster in Texas back in 2019, I have grown in this career and feel accomplished.
At times I felt desperate and tried going for field work, even though I’ve always known my forte would be desk adjusting. I even paid for my FL license out of pocket. Even so, nothing ever panned out in that aspect.
I started as a claims assistant in collateral protection Ins, then was Blessed to be offered a position adjusting auto PD, and I’m currently a Liability claims adjuster with Sedgwick who offers great benefits, and paid for me to be licensed in all the reciprocal states (will also pay for my AIC) while I make $63k salary. I know this is just the beginning but now I feel established, and know there’s still plenty of room for growth, which makes me very excited."
