Blue Ridge Agents Insurance: Helping People and Developing Future Professionals

Based in Winchester, Virginia, Blue Ridge Agents Insurance is an independent insurance agency built around one simple goal: helping people. Blue Ridge Agents Insurance began about 15 years ago with a focus on life insurance and continued to grow by building relationships and expanding its services. Today, Blue Ridge Agents Insurance helps clients with a variety of needs, including life, health, medicare, auto, homeowners, and supplemental insurance.

That same people-first mindset carries into Blue Ridge Agents Insurance’s approach to internships. Blue Ridge Agents Insurance currently has two interns gaining hands-on experience and learning what it takes to work in the insurance industry. Interns have opportunities to explore different areas of the business, including sales, client communication, administration, marketing, and design. One intern has gained experience with sales through calls and client interactions, while another has worked in administration, marketing, and design.

Blue Ridge Agents Insurance hopes to continue growing its internship program, with a long-term goal of having interns transition into full-time positions. When looking for interns, Blue Ridge Agents Insurance values good character, different perspectives, and people who genuinely want to help others.

For Blue Ridge Agents Insurance, investing in interns is another way to live out what the company is all about: helping people; whether that's helping a client find the right coverage or helping a student learn, grow, and take the next step in their career.
