What a coincidence. Yes, I'm waiting for the bus. I haven't seen you for a while. How's going, Timo?
Yoo Vanessa, are you also waiting for the bus?
Oh yea, now I’m working at De Goudse Verzekeringen. It’s an insurance company that mainly focuses on businesses and entrepreneurs. I’ve just started working here for a month. It’s great and excited to be a claim handler.
I'm doing fine. I heard from your mom that you just switch to a new company. How is it?
I heard that pretty often. So I’m responsible to process claims, negotiating settlements, verifying insurance coverage, and reviewing insurance cases.
That’s so cool. What does a claims handler do? Honestly, I don’t know much about the insurance company
Haha yes. My annual salary is 36K and they also give me a travel allowance and other benefits such as a thirteenth-month salary, vacation days, pension scheme, and cheap lunch.
Interesting. Do they give you good pay compared to your previous job?
Oh, this is also a plus as they didn’t ask me for experience and were willing to train me from scratch.
That’s so nice. I’m happy for you. But I know that you worked in a different industry in your previous job. How do you get this job?
I know right. That's also my biggest fear before switching so I totally understand.
Cool. Because this is what I’m afraid of when it comes to a major career change. It’s nice that they will onboard you again and do not ask for relevant experience
