Claim Trainee positions are entry-level roles focused on training and learning the claims process, often requiring minimal experience. Claims Adjusters handle active claims, investigate damages, and make settlement decisions, often requiring licensing. While Claim Trainees are in a learning phase, Claims Adjusters are responsible for final claim resolution.
Claims trainees are entry-level employees learning how to process claims in the insurance industry. A claims adjuster assesses insurance claims, such as auto accidents or home thefts, and determines whether or not an application should receive compensation. Claims trainees provide administrative support to the adjuster; they review benefits paperwork, interview the client, and research the accident reports. As you gain more experience, you can eventually move from being a trainee to an adjuster.

Progressive is dedicated to helping employees move forward and live fully in their careers. Your journey has already begun. Apply today and take the first step to Destination: Progress.
As a claims adjuster trainee, you’ll learn how to help customers get back on the road after an accident. This is not a field position, which means you’ll be building relationships with customers over the phone. In a fast-paced environment, you’ll learn how to resolve a full case load of claims efficiently while managing the claims process from start to finish. You’ll have the support of a collaborative team and ongoing coaching from leaders. We’ll also teach you the insurance stuff – providing in-depth training on property damage and insurance contracts so you can confidently and independently adjust claims.
This is a hybrid role, which means you’ll work in-office two days that are selected by local leadership and choose where you want to work the other three days, whether that’s at home or in the office, for a period of 12 months. After that period, the days you’ll be expected to report to an office for important meetings, training, and collaboration will vary based on business need. In this hybrid work environment, you’ll be supported by your leaders and tenured colleagues to develop relationships, establish connections, and share practices that are important to your development. If you prefer an in-office environment, you’re welcome to work in the office as often as you would like.
