What are the qualifications for becoming a Pilot property adjuster?
Experienced adjusters are preferred. However, a background in construction, home inspection, or restoration can provide an excellent foundation. Computer proficiency is a must, and interpersonal skills are highly desirable. For those without an appropriate background, we look for a good attitude and willingness and ability to learn. Pilot can direct those people to training venues. You must be able to provide your own transportation and equipment. Adjusters are responsible for their living expenses while deployed. Does Pilot provide any training for new adjusters? Yes, on a limited basis. We conduct an annual technical training program for auto adjusters and Xactimate classes. Most of our current training is for the more experienced adjusters. What is it like “in the field”? As the word “catastrophe” implies, working conditions are rarely optimum. Major events like hurricanes can cause damage ranging from substantial to devastating. Being deployed to such an event is a seven-day-a-week
