Focus on describing your education as it relates to the position. You do not need to start with your high school diploma or GED. Start with post-secondary training and beyond. If you do not have post-secondary training and the position calls for only a high school diploma or GED, mention that you are qualified and explain that you have your diploma or GED. However, most Fraud Investigator jobs require a minimum of a bachelor's degree or investigative certification and work experience to apply for the position.

Suppose the job description calls for a Fraud Investigator with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice, insurance fraud, or investigations. In that case, you want to be sure you meet the requirements before applying for the job. Avoid not having the education required for the position.

"I obtained my bachelor's degree in criminal justice three years ago from Sacramento State University. I then became a Certified Fraud Examiner through the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners. I have agreed to a code of ethics and passed their exam. I have maintained my certification by completing the necessary continuing education units and am in good standing as an investigator."
