Insurance Adjuster Exam Prep vs Pre Licensing

[@Ripsnort19]

I took my pre-licensing through 2021 Training. Since I live in a non license state Wisconsin, I picked Texas as my DHS. Once I passed my exam it only took a few days for me to get my license. This was in March 2020. I gotta say, I really liked the 2021 Training it was very good! Very detailed.

[@ItsSilva]

hey man. i'm actually thinking about taking my course on 2021 is there any way to contact you and ask questions?

[@lovenspired]

how has your career thrived since getting your license? ball park figure of your first year earnings?

[@leetha24]

I am considering getting licensed through 2021 as well. Nice to hear you were pleased with the experience. How has your experience been as an adjuster now that you are working?

[@lacosquilla]

I went to do my fingerprints yesterday at 1pm and today at 1pm I received my lencense. Florida license went super fast 😳 I'm going for my TX now and see how long it takes

[@singlemotherRespector]

Awesome! How has the industry been treating you so far?

[@Hand_me_a_handle]

I'm in Florida and interested in this. Please help me and tell me which course did you take. Thank you in advance

[@amandajohnson2850]

In Virginia, you'll need a DHS. Texas turned it around in 3 days in September.

Shazam!!!!

[@GetLostAF]

I got my NC license in 2 business days. Florida took 2 weeks bc often finger printing and self appointment 😁

Is the course for insurance agent pre licensing the same as the adjuster pre licensing course? I hope I haven't confused you.

[@UnderTheBridge96]

*ATTENTION* Hey just so I understand correctly, even though I live in Florida, it would be wise for me to get my INDIANA license FIRST. Is that correct? ✅ Great video, really excited to begin my new career. Thank you for helping so many people brother 🙏😀🙏🙏🙏

[@AdjusterTV]

Unfortunately you'll need to get your FL license first if you're a FL resident. It's at least as good as the Indiana or Texas license, which you can easily get once you get your Florida license. adjustertv.com/licensing

[@JustSaying83022]

So I live in Nevada, can I make Indiana my DHS?

[@tonybe70]

Thanks Matt.. We decided to take Mile High Boot camp at the end of the month, so I'm sure I will have more questions soon!!

[@AdjusterTV]

Nice! Let me know how it goes!

[@JDMcHenry]

How did it go? Was it worth it? Any tips, tricks or something you would have done differently?

[@Luke--tg8kj]

I am taking my “final pre license exam” on adjusterpro for Indiana. Will I have to take another Indiana state final exam? I am finding conflicting information. Thank you!

[@bennorde2002]

Quick question and sorry if someones's already asked. I was wondering how long is it recommended that you study for the Texas All Lines License? Thanks

[@AdjusterTV]

Geez, as long as it takes! You want to do your best to pass these tests the first time.

[@bennorde2002]

Maybe I should've asked...what's the average recommended time frame?

[@JohnDoe-ru5qv]

I'm looking to get into adjusting. Is there a particular license for catastrophe or could I do catastrophe with a property, casualty, surety and marine claims adjuster license?

[@AdjusterTV]

Depending on your state, you'll get something like an all-lines property adjuster license. adjustertv.com/adjusterpro for more info.

[@JohnDoe-ru5qv]

@@AdjusterTV Thanks for the info! I passed my adjusters licensing test Friday. I know I still have to do the background and fingerprinting and what not but I don't know where to start to look for entry level adjusting opportunities

Pennsylvania Hard to kind training or classes to get ready for test,... Can you help?

[@ghostfood260]

Hey, I'm in PA too. Did you end up finding any training or classes that is working for you?

[@Genuine048]

Matt, I only have 8 month experience as a field adjuster. I was going to purchase the combo bundle through adjusterpro but In order to qualify for the state exams I need a minimum of two years experience as a field adjuster. What do I do in this situation? Thanks Tons Matt

[@AdjusterTV]

Sounds like you might be in CA. I would suggest doing virtual/remote work that doesn't require a license - wegolook.com inspectorsondemand.com etc. You can also deploy to states that don't have licensing requirements - and if there's a big hurricane, don't let a lack of a license stop you from getting on rosters.. as long as you have everything else (training, gear, etc)

[@dionerogers3047]

Could you give me some advise for where or with whom would be best to take courses to best prepare for my adjuster exam? Also who is best to use for training for xactamate?

[@AdjusterTV]

There are a lot of places to get xactimate training. I would start with www.adjustertv.com/tactical-xactimate-training

[@samcleaver3702]

Florida was fast

[@manwiththeplan7143]

How long should you study for the exam ? Days/time/hours ?

[@AdjusterTV]

As long as it takes until you know the material. If you use www.adjustertv.com/licensing the pre-exam/pre-licensing stuff will kinda dictate how long it takes.

[@manwiththeplan7143]

@@AdjusterTV i actually used adjuster pro. Just kinda nervous lol

[@EPHRAIMrising]

Would Mile High Adjusters be a decent route to go for pre licensing? I'm thinking of getting into the field & doing pre licensing with them. However, I'm in Mississippi.. so my state does have home requirements here. Would a pre licensure program through a place like that help me in passing the MS required exam (or would it be learning a lot that I'd just have to repeat & pay all over again for on the MS side)???? If it's helpful for MS as well, then I would probably go for it. I already signed up for the ipath info, since I really want to diversify my options for revenue streams through this. I would definitely be wanting to do cat claims at times, but would also want to do more with daily property & maybe auto too.

[@AdjusterTV]

I would get it here: bit.ly/30cgx9Q All they do is pretty much licensing.

[@brooklynnnorris4605]

What Florida school should I go to?!

[@adaniels4943]

I went through an on-line course to be an adjuster. After I finished the course, I found out that I couldn't test without having a certain number of hours/time on the job experience. How can I get that without having a license. Seems like a "catch 22". My state is New Mexico... ugh Any suggestions?

FL took 1 week back in the summer of 2016. Not sure what the turn time is now.

[@AdjusterTV]

I just checked with AdjusterPro and they're saying it's about 5 days for Florida, which is awesome!

[@mikepekock5321]

So I live in NC. Are you saying make Indiana my DHS? Mike

[@AdjusterTV]

I probably WAS saying that. But these days I would say make Florida your DHS 100%.

[@AdjusterTV]

@Luka Vega Because you have to get fingerprinted. Any other state that also requires fingerprints will honor FL. So you won't have to get fingerprinted AGAIN.

[@pacnwhiker1213]

Hi Matt, love your channel! Do any states waive testing requirements if you hold insurance designations?

[@AdjusterTV]

I believe your CPCU or AIC, etc can waive testing requirements for some states. Wait, don't YOU have a CPCU??

[@LadyNStreet]

❤ thank you!

[@thestarfamily6876]

Is it ok to get Florida DHS License? I believe the state exam is online however will other states honor that?

[@AdjusterTV]

Yes, if your home state has no licensing requirement, Florida is a great DHS

[@thestarfamily6876]

Just realize you are the guy from AdjusterPro 😂 was not paying attention. Anyway I also discovered Arizona and Alaska do not accept DHS licenses. You will have to take their state exam

[@AdjusterTV]

@@thestarfamily6876 That's right, AZ and AK don't. There are a small handful of states that don't. I don't work for AdjusterPro, but I promote their service :)

What are thoughts on SCLA designation. Is it recognizable in the insurance industry compared to CPCU?

[@thestarfamily6876]

Typo what are your thoughts

[@nard429]

Can i just get my Non Residents licenses without taking tests?

You can for reciprocal states after you've gotten your home state or DHS.
