uhmmm, i heard the workload in mclaren is very heavy. For instance, if other adjusting companies do about 3 assignments a week MSM will be doing about double that, per adjuster.

Salary i'm not sure. There's a really high turnover in adjusting companies in KL at least. For other cities is probably less.

I used to work for Crawford Adjusters for about 2 years.. Gotin as a fresh grad, drawing basic salary of RM1,800.00 (pretty low I know for a graduate with a degree). However there are ruminations that will help you sustain the job, RM400.00 for car allowance, parking and handphone bills are allowed to be claim. You are also given Outstation allowances. For the record, I was based in a branch, which salary are way lesser than KL-HQ

On average, we take home monthly around 3k.. Based on my experience, it's a very good job for fresh grads, especially for those who wants to be in the insurance line. However as for those who are not keen on being in the insurance line, I'd advise don't waste ur time. Coz as an adjuster, the workloads often outweighs your salary. That's my 2 cents.

It is a known fact that Salary for Insurance Adjuster means NOTHING cos its the side line that really earns $$$.

Anyone who has been involved in a Motor Accident claim will know what I mean.

Eventually a huge majority of us (Adjusters) will move to Insurers/Brokers. Unless you really like the lifestyle of an adjuster. For me, 2 and the half years is more than enough. Did marine (including GIT), PA, Fire, engineering, FG, con loss (which I hated it the most) and a few dilap quotations. lol

It's already yr 2013 (based on your time of posting) and they offered 1250 for freshie degree holders? LOL. Kinda expected that really. Honestly diploma holders freshie for this job in MSM usually they offer 1200 to 1400 as a freshie start. And this was many years ago. I guess you just got bullshitted.

In some adjusting companies, for Seniors.... they can easily get 3.5 to 4.5k ++++ regardless of diploma or degree holders.
