Pasadena, CA -- http://www.EmploymentCrossing.com, one of the world’s largest job-board operators, announced on Monday the launch of http://www.UnderwritingCrossing.com. UnderwritingCrossing.com seeks to list every underwriting job in the United States.
The role of an underwriter is to assess the risk of a potential policy holder of his company, establish a competitive and profitable policy premium, and then write the resulting policy. Underwriters are able to find optimum premium rates that satisfy policy holders as well as maintain profitability for their employing insurance companies by sound assessment of industries, lifestyles etc.
Finding a job as an underwriter is a Herculean task for many. UnderwritingCrossing, the newly launched offspring of EmploymentCrossing, aspires to list all kinds of underwriting jobs, details on career advancement opportunities and employment information related to the industry.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), underwriters held about 104,000 jobs in 2006. Employment trends predicted by BLS are only about 6% which is slower than the average of job growth of other occupations for the decade 2006-2016. But, further according to the government statistics, new and emerging fields of insurance will boost job prospects for underwriters.
“In this market, it is extremely hard to get a job with a recruiter, and recruiters typically work with very few companies,” says A. Harrison Barnes, founder and CEO of UnderwritingCrossing. “Job openings that are not widely known or publicized are the easiest jobs to get.”
UnderwritingCrossing was launched to help television professionals sort out the opportunities that they may not find out about otherwise. Unlike other job boards, the site focuses solely on television-related jobs, and it doesn’t charge employers to post jobs.
According to Barnes, the most popular searches on the site thus far have been:
