CatAdjuster.org has been online since 1995 and as a result the membership has provided a lot of information on subjects ranging from the Appraisal Process to Zürich claims. However, over the years the information has been posted in many different areas. What we hope to do with area is centralize access to this information and hopefully make it easier to locate.

Description
OK. Here I am. Just got my Georgia license (god, what a drag that was!) and ready to make millions I've been in construcion for a few years (roofing estimator) and dealt a lot with claim based construction work. So, I just wanted to hear some advise from you guys, hardened in battles veterans....
So, here we go.
- How do I get in? What should my strategy be? Should I try to get hired by a large insurance company to gain some experience? State Farm? Allstate? Or should I just get on the rosters of as many independents as possible and wait for a lucky day?
- What are the advantages and disadvantages of being a staff adjuster vs independent?
- Is there enough work right now? I hear a lot of older guys are leaving the field. Does that mean, it would be easier for me to find work?
- How much you all guys make? Honestly, is it worth doing what you are doing? How much a typical staff adjuster makes? Independent? In storm situation? In a slow year? In an average year?
- What is better residential or commercial claims? How can I get to work commercial claims?
- Flood and earthquake certifications? Do I need them? Are they beneficial to me at this stage?
- How many licenses should I get? In which states?
