What this means to you

At COUNTRY, business is as dynamic as you make it. Success is based on your talents, hard work, and willingness to help clients protect what is important to them over a lifetime.

Hieu Tran - Lombard, IL, explains it this way:

"Being a representative at COUNTRY is an important job. I think that's why COUNTRY takes such care in recruiting new representatives. They are interested in hiring the most qualified individuals they can.

I am of Vietnamese heritage and speak the language fluently. While I didn't join COUNTRY to expand into the Vietnamese marketplace, I have been pleased to serve some of their insurance and financial services needs. COUNTRY hired me because of my qualifications and my strong interest in securing a long-term, financially rewarding career. I am proud to provide outstanding service to my clients."

Tiffany Maines, supervisor, Customer Service Center, says diversity is something to be celebrated:

“Any differences among individuals should be celebrated. This effort shows we are taking responsibility to make sure all representatives and employees feel comfortable and know they will not be judged on anything other than the merit of their work.”

Vicki Nygren, agency manager, Chicago, IL, believes everyone’s diverse skills contribute to our success:

“Diversity is larger than race, religion or gender. It’s about viewing situations from a variety of viewpoints and problem solving using the creative talents of a wide spectrum of individuals."

Diversity and inclusion are important in creating an environment where you feel differences are accepted and valued. We want you to feel connected at COUNTRY.
