Auto Damage Trainee

Entry-level

Multiple locations available throughout the U.S.

 

 

This career track is well suited for business and liberal arts majors.

 

Even minor traffic accidents can be traumatic for our policyholders. As an associate in our auto damage operations, you're the customer's link to GEICO and our first line of defense in fraud detection.

 

As an Auto Damage Trainee, you’ll first attend our industry-leading auto damage school. While in “school,” you will learn the ins and outs of automobile damage caused by minor to major accidents and natural disasters. After you complete this training, you’ll work “in the field” assisting customers that have been involved in an accident.

 

Our classroom and field training will give you the necessary skills and knowledge to become an Auto Damage Adjuster. A typical day as an adjuster will include: interacting with customers, inspecting vehicle damage, estimating the cost of vehicle repairs, and negotiating equitable settlements. Your responsibilities could take you to a policyholder's home, an auto repair shop, salvage yard or the scene of an accident. You'll be mentored by a Sr. Auto Damage adjuster until you're ready to go out on the road by yourself.

 

At that time, we'll provide you with the latest technology in computer estimating software, a company car, and the tools you'll need to effectively do your job. You’ll be working independently and make decisions that affect GEICO’s bottom line.

 

Our adjusters work flexible schedules, allowing GEICO to be there for our policyholders. Many of our trainees advance through this career track and become senior adjusters, trainers and supervisors. It's all based on your performance and the possibility for career advancement is outstanding! We periodically offer Auto Damage supervisory programs in North Carolina and San Diego, Calif.
