Employer in Residence: Pacific Life
---What is your company culture like?---
>>>Although Pacific Life is a Fortune 500 company, it still has that small town feel. We have over 3,000 employees nationwide and 400 of those are in Omaha. We have expanded over the past year and are building a brand new building by fall 2015 at Aksarben Village in Omaha, NE. At Pacific Life, the work environment is open and collaborative, with a focus on delivering service excellence. The company focuses on developing their people and truly values the contributions of their employees. Some of the developmental opportunities we offer include tuition reimbursement, sponsored insurance licenses and designations, and much more.
---Why should a student want to work for your company?---
>>>We have a number of opportunities for recent college graduates. The best part about our entry level positions is our training and development programs. They are all very hands-on and will teach you everything you need to know. Most of our positions don’t require experience in the insurance industry. What I really love about Pacific Life is that they are committed to giving back to the community and offer many individual and group volunteer opportunities through our employee volunteer program, the Good Guys.
---What majors/interest areas does your company typically seek?---
>>>We typically seek out business majors, however, our positions are ideal for anyone that is driven and motivated to learn.
---Do you currently have any open positions, if so, what are they?---
>>>There will be a new class of Customer Service Annuity Specialists on 1/5/14. This class allows studying at work and the ability to obtain your FINRA Series 6 license. We pride ourselves with our award-winning customer service teams and there is an eight month training program for new Customer Service employees. This allows you to learn everything you need to know.
We are also expanding our Long Term Care Internal Wholesaling Sales Desk. We are looking for five new sales folks to join us on 1/5/14. We have other opportunities available in data entry, as well as internships. If you are interested in an opportunity, please contact Lindsey Killeen at lindsey.killeen@pacificlife.com
