The job announcement should say how many years of experience the company requires. The interviewer wants to hear about your experience to ensure you are qualified for the position. Give examples of how many years of experience you have as a Fraud Investigator and who you have worked with previously.

Focus on highlighting the number of years of experience you have and what areas. Many employers require previous experience in fraud investigations for a governmental agency, a public or private insurance carrier, or a private third-party administrator.

You always want to have the minimum qualifications needed before applying for a job. If the job announcement says the company requires a minimum number of years of experience, avoid saying you have more experience than you do. The interviewer will contact your references and determine that you were dishonest in the interview.

"I have worked as a Fraud Investigator for six years. I worked for three years with Geico Insurance as a Fraud Investigator, investigating first and third-party bodily injury claims. I worked with Anaheim Insurance as a level 2 Fraud Investigator for the past three years. I was responsible for identifying and facilitating Anti-Fraud Awareness events and creating in-house fraud presentations for in-service staff meetings. Additional responsibilities included attending health insurance fraud seminars and other company-sponsored courses and taking that information to create continuing education courses for the agency."
