Different departments will have either an insurance side, investigatory side, or both. Explain which appeals to you most and why. A good answer is to incorporate both sides of fire inspection, so it shows that you are willing to handle any given assignment.

"If given a choice, I prefer the investigatory side of fire inspecting most. I find it more appealing and intriguing than insurance claims. But, I have worked on both sides in the past and will certainly continue working claims if they assigned to me."

While the investigation side of fire inspection has its intrigue and can be a more extraordinary event. The day-to-day insurance side of the job and handling insurance claims is important to our fiscal responsibility and will be handled with equal enthusiasm.

Then, you can talk more specifically about what you enjoy about each side and wrap up your answer by confirming that you are equipped and willing to handle either side as needed to ensure clients are well cared for.
