I have been working in an insurance agency where there was always a high number of vacancies and consistent daily hirings. We were always working round the clock and maintaining our recruitment pipeline. In a week, we had thousands of candidates who had applied to our roles and were ready to move forward.
Right now, things have become incredibly slow. Our clients are reducing the number of candidates they need weekly while some have completely stopped hiring for entry level insurance agents. Nothing has changed on our end, we are still delivering the same number of candidates weekly and can even scale more. I’m just wondering what is happening. Are there any agency owners here?
Is the US Insurance staffing industry declining?

The promise of AI is enough for companies to use it as an excuse for layoffs and/or not filling open spots.
To be sure, they need the bodies and expertise. But their shareholders won’t allow for it.
Not all companies have shareholders. The mutual are owned by policyholders
