Insurance investigators investigate claims that are suspected to be fraudulent. Like others in the insurance field, you can work in-house for one insurance company or as a sub-contractor for multiple insurance companies. Your investigations may range from following paper trails to physically surveilling claimants to prove fraud.
While you do not need a bachelor’s degree, a potential employer would appreciate one. In addition, certain states or countries may require licensing or certification before you can begin in the profession so ensure you do your research and list your license on your resume.
