<p>I’ve been approached by a friend who is in the insurance industry about coming to work with/for him for a Fortune 100 company in a management roll. I have expressed an interest to get into Project and/or Supply Chain management, and have considered asset and risk management opportunities before. I told them I wasn’t interested in a sales job, and they told me it wasn’t a sales position. So, what is it? (shows my ignorance)</p>
<p>How does the insurance industry look right now? Also, why would someone hire an Engineer into this industry? Or, more importantly, why was I approached? They know I am going for my MBA so the opportunity looks appealing, I’m just worried if I could do the job, as I know very little about this industry. Any advice or direction would be helpful.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
