In need of a claims position either in Houston or Dallas. My attempts at applying for all of the big companies have resulted in an automatic rejection email within minutes for things that do not require experience.

I have my Texas All lines adjuster license

Any help is appreciated!

Sounds like they want you to be a rookie ie age discrimination without violating the law

More and more auto rejections or over qualified. Running out of hope

Have you thought of being an independent adjuster or a PA?

Maybe widen your net, solicit independent adjusters? Had a good experience with Wheeler-Defusco after Harvey. Bound to be more independents, Nationwide has a surplus arm (Scottsdale) they use independents all the time for those claims. Good luck!

Not being critical / my 2 cents

You might want to broaden your net outside of GIS or claims considering what little luck you've had in trying to find an opportunity.

I am sure there are other "big company" opportunities who could use your skill set if you were to tailor your resume as such.

Lastly I second those who have said increase your networking whether it is through LinkedIn, church groups, or others. Simply applying online and waiting is a no-win proposition.

In the meantime it might look good if you could take on a second (part time) job to support yourself. To potential employers this at least shows that you're trying to help yourself professionally and financially and not have to explain a huge gap on your resume. Are there classes or certifications you can take?

Lastly I would recommend you start and keep a job log of all of the opportunities you applied to, who would you have contacted about these opportunities, and what the next steps are. This will not only get and keep you motivated to follow up every day but not make you feel like you were spinning your wheels.

Food for thought and good luck in your search.

I have applied at other things with even swifter auto rejects for not being qualified.

Meanwhile the uber eats thing has at least paid some bills...

Zero luck on any of the networking again LinkedIn is not useful in my opinion

Thanks

Have you tried going to these places in person? Sounds like you need a new approach.

Have you searched on indeed using Xactimate or tried www.greatinsurancejobs.com or thebestirs.com?
GigEm04

Yep..nothing on thebestirs or greatinsurancejobs

I dont know xactimate

Not knowing Xactimate is likely why you are not getting any property bites. Take a 3 day class and get at least level 2 certified. Even for trainee positions.
