The Graduate Experience

Carol Chinyandura - R.J. Kiln

DEGREE COURSE
BSc Criminology and Social Policy, Loughborough University

ENTRY TO LLOYD'S MARKET
It was not until after I graduated that I considered a career in insurance. After doing some research I realised that a career in the Lloyd's market had all the elements of what I was looking for in a career. After taking up a temporary role at Kiln, I applied for a position on the Claims Graduate Scheme and I am now pleased to be a graduate at Lloyd's.

WHAT HAVE I DONE SINCE I JOINED?
In the short time that I have spent as a Kiln graduate I have had been involved in assessing bordereaux claims and the jewellers block. I have also been actively involved in other projects within the Claims department. What I have particularly enjoyed about the graduate scheme is the amount of responsibility I have been given, during early stages and the opportunity to make an impact. The work is very diverse, meaning each day is never the same. As well as gaining new skills, I have also had the opportunity to utilise skills gained from my degree. The work I have been undertaking has also helped with my studies for the ACII qualification.

INTERESTS (INSIDE / OUTSIDE WORK)
