I start my Property Field Adjuster role in 2 weeks and I’m so glad I came across your videos. It has given me a lot of insight.

This is so annoying. Like why do you care so much about this lady? It doesn't seem that serious.....like a nothing comment. This career seems to be stressing you tfo. But thanks for showing the real life of this profession and not a get rich quick and easy life like some other videos.

So are you not independent?

This video has turned me off from the opportunity.

Your aging backwards 🙌thanks for sharing your knowledge.

After you sign your release to the settlement how long does it take to receive check

Hey Kela, question. I’m trying to break into adjusting and I have training coming next month with pilot in auto and property. How can I land daily claims work as a new adjuster?

Hello, I just received my adjuster license and I feel a bit nervous because I keep hearing a lot of horror stories. Is it true that when you start out, you have to start in the field for the experience? Also is it possible to adjust part time?

So true i agree with number 5 I work in social services, and i also work a commissions only insurance job, and i make sure to have at least 2 spa days a month, because I need to enjoy my actual life instead of just living to work.

I’m 3 month in to Auto Claims adjuster and I love it! Still getting ramped up but I think I got it

Hey I'm planning to go the Staff Adjuster route because you can get the training and the benefits. Plus you can move into dofferent areas. INSURANCE is a industry has staying power because people and businesses need insurance for their needs

Allied universal lies about pay too

Such a beauty Like the original Betty Boop

Facts...This is where I'm at on my life now. I already took July 18 & 19 off to go to the spa with 1 of my friends. I'm salary & A LOT has changed at my job in April. So I Definitely make sure I take time for me.

I used to be a claims adjuster for Progressive. I felt stuck, burned out and the pay was not worth it. Thankfully I was able to transition and get a role in legal and compliance. Those who are trying to get out of claims and not be claims manager - don’t give up and don’t listen to those who say your not qualified to do anything outside of claims.

I also can let 2-3 hours pass by without even getting up! It's such a bad habit- I need to get back into scheduling breaks from my desk- I'm not sure how I stopped doing that. Not planning too many things in the day is also a great tip as is setting boundaries ❤

You have it together girl! You're an inspiration to me who is also working from home with a 2 year old. What company do you work for if you don't mind me asking.

Great to have you back. I make an effort to take off 4 days a month when I have over 100 hours of PTO on Fridays. Heavy workload or not. Balance is important!

I’m a salaried worker and I give them 8hrs. What I don’t finish I’ll work the next day. Every blue moon I may stay over a hr if I still have something I need to finish. I’m good on staying on top of everything but I refuse to give the company my full day when I have a family even though I work from home.

Happy new month: july

Ooo if this video isn’t for me idk what is. I’m a claims adjuster for workers comp and I work 7:30-3:30 but really, I work almost 12 hour days (off the clock) because of how demanding my job is and self care is always at the bottom of my list and finding the balance is sooooo difficult. Tip #1 is spot on. I work hourly as well and so I have an alarm clock for all my scheduled breaks, even one to stretch and breathe for 5 minutes but I actually like the idea of taking a 45 min lunch (I only take 30min but that’s not enough time) to do prep work for the evening. That’s pretty good. I didn’t even think of that. Lol insurance: everything is important and definitely there is the pressure that everything is but I like to prioritize by mail for anything legal and medical authorizations and any benefits that need to be paid. Everything else, I can “put off” lol I have set boundaries now…sort of lol. I work more than I ever have when I was in the office but i start extremely early just to clear out things that are urgent, then my work my normal hours, I cruise a little through each claim that needs attention but I don’t have anything urgent hanging over me. Doing that early start also helps when random things come up that takes me off track. Right now, work has become my identity but I’m slowing loosing the grip of that idea because that’s not healthy. Workers comp also is soooo scary if you’re late on payments or client incurs a penalty because an adjuster miscalculated benefits and with the labor codes, anything can literally go left so it is a lot of pressure 💀

Glad to see you're still at it. I left the industry back in December to try out a couple of other career paths. My licenses, most of them anyway, are still active so hopefully I can get back into the adjusting game 😂

I was just t-boned and my insurance told me my deductible doesn’t apply because i proved the other driver was at fault thanks to my dash camera.

What happens to the loan balance ? Do I have to pay same monthly payments or they will adjust

I’ve been a fully remote auto claims adjuster for a few years, I was just promoted to property field claims and I start Monday. The fear of the unknown is real, and seeing another woman in this field is giving me peace! Thanks for the content

Love your channel. I’m in Oklahoma and I’m a real estate agent. I’m thinking of getting my IA license. Are you or anyone in the comments able to tell me the usual salary for a 1st year agent? I also have a degree in human resource

How much do you make on average for each claim. How long about does 1 claim take (your time-not payment time). Can you just pick like 4 claims a week and give the others away? I d like part time.

Hey Kela, how can I get into that industry?

Do you ever get into heated arguments with customers/policyholders?

Great content. Adjusting can have you stressed like a mug out here

People have no idea how stressful the job of an adjuster can be, especially property adjusters. No matter how well you can roll with it, there is always going to be that one person or claim that will make your life hell. Sometimes, even several of those at once. And you have to sit there and let people lie to your face and most times you can't even react. Been in property 20 years and there have been times....

Thanks, Kela. I think total loss will be my starting point.

It's much better to just drive without insurance

I am currently life insurance license in California But after getting into the insurance industry I developed an interest in the different types of insurances and I've actually been interested in becoming a claims adjuster I love that I came across your video right now because it kind of gives me some insight to what to expect I would love to know what company you work with or if you just say different companies to look at as far as getting into becoming a claims adjuster

What do you do when your child makes a random sound like laugh etc.?

What does Salvage bid mean???🥺😊

I currently work in a brokerage but am thinking of going into either underwriting or claims. Have you had experience underwriting? And if so, what would you say is the best

First off, I want to say, I love your channel and content! I’m interested in being a desk adjuster. I heard you mention it’s kind of like a call center. However, after watching this video, the inbound calls do not seem to be back to back?? Do you have time to breathe and step away from your computer to start a load of laundry or make a sandwich? Lol I hate micromanagement and managers breathing down my back if I’m away for five mins or more. I don’t want the stress of being robotic and glued to my desk. Are there metrics?

I just completed my first week in training as a claims adjuster trainee so these videos are so helpful to watch! Thanks again!

I love these videos… your voice is so soothing and I love your reaction to an overwhelming workload and stress.

Nicta.

Thank you for the awesome video!

Hello I’m newly licensed in TX with my all-lines Texas adjuster license & I can’t find work at all..

Question…how often do you have to review policy

I would honestly go with the frontline adjuster, field appraisal, or the underwriting. Underwriting low-key feels so interesting and something I can't get bored of. Thank you for the video!

not to be in your business but by the looks of your kitchen the new spot is nice! congratulations on your move

I've been watching your videos for a while and love all your day in the life stories. I recently got my Florida Adjusters license, and I'm having trouble finding a desk adjuster job. Everyone is asking for experience. Do you have any suggestions?

Last week since we had a shorter week was tough for me. I am learning to “anchor” my activities out rather than going in to it everyday. I had a headache Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday I got my bearings. I am learning the independence and lack of supervision and understanding to work the claim as far as I can.

Your videos are always educational, thank you. Your job is definitely a two person job, the fact that you’re able to stay sane is admirable.

I always wanted to be an adjuster so I love watching your videos. I like that you take your job extremely serious and you are so professional. Have a wonderful weekend.
