Work History
Office Administrator, 01/2014 to 03/2021
New York Life Insurance – Reno, NV
I have worked part time for 3 different agents at New York Life Insurance over the years.
-Boosted customer satisfaction ratings by 30% in less than 6 months.
-Personal relations with clients, bringing in an entire group of over 200 people. This group saved the New York Life quota for the year.
-Organized Office to make it a more professional working environment.
-Had only 3 days of training with first job, taught myself the entire New York Life system and computer skills required to do my job professionally.
-Worked well and got along great with everyone in the office, and even helped agents and secretaries with any problems they had.
-I spoke with many clients who just lost a loved one, a couple people from murder. I would help the clients from beginning to end. Helping a family that lost their sister and two year old niece from murder/suicide. Getting them their claim was the easy part, I fought for the family to make it legal for them to get the benefits and not the Dad who has never seen his two year old daughter. I worked with the Courts to make things easier for the family to get the legal documents they needed. Most of this was the agent's job and things I shouldn't be doing, but I always go the extra mile to make things right and to help.
