College recruiting tips for insurance professionals
Article Abstract:
Insurance companies and agencies should focus their college recruiting among students who have majored or concentrated in risk management and insurance (RMI), rather than recruiting liberal arts majors. There are over 200 colleges and universities in the US and Canada that teach RMI, 60 of which offer majors, minors, or concentrations. Insurance companies should participate in both general and specialized RMI job fairs on campus, offer summer internship programs, establish long-term relationships with any local RMI program, and use alumni databases to recruit more experienced candidates.

Companies considering forming a captive should compare the expense of owning a captive with the costs of other options, including traditional insurance and self-insurance.
