Insurance firm uses interns to help build future talent pool

Lakewood Ranch-based commercial property and casualty insurance company FCCI has experienced hiring challenges similar to other industries, from nursing to construction. 

“The insurance industry in general is facing a talent shortage,” says Lisa Krouse, executive vice president and chief human resources and corporate communications officer. She thinks the insurance industry has done a poor job representing itself to young professionals as an industry they might want to build a career in. “We’re working on that,” she adds.
