QUESTION 6 OF 40

Do you prefer to work with clients on their business/commercial insurance needs or health/life insurance needs? Why?

Some Insurance companies focus solely on commercial/business insurance, while others work strictly on health/life insurance. Progressive offers thirty-plus products, including auto, recreation, property, and life insurance plans. Before interviewing with Progressive, be sure you understand what they offer their clients and speak to your experience and preferences.

"I understand that Progressive offers a full suite of services. I have experience working in all types of insurance and am comfortable in most areas. If I had to choose one area of strength, I would say that I have a few more years of experience in commercial insurance."

"Although I do have more experience in health and life insurance, I am eager to gain more momentum in the area of commercial insurance. The variety and challenge would be welcome at this point in my career."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Anonymous Answer

I understand that Progressive offers a full suite of services. I do not have much experience in working with insurance. If I had to choose one area I would say the commercial insurance side.

Marcie's Feedback

Why would you pick that side? Offering more details will build out your answer and make it more meaningful to the interviewer. Also, avoid stating that you don't have much experience in insurance. Simply say instead that you haven't yet determined which type interests you more, and you look forward to figuring that out as you continue to gain experience.
