Take that step… don’t think about it too much #TIA2023
The Insurance Apprentice is recruiting for TIA2023 contestants. The search is on for the top talent… and the big news is that the competition is going back to in-person elimination rounds and filming. Simon (aka Judge Dread) gives us some insight on the format for TIA2023… If you think you have what it takes to be the next Insurance Apprentice, then apply.
Do you have what it takes to win? Roxanne Griffiths, winner of the first Insurance Apprentice, recently shared how she often gets asked “what does it take to win?” Her response… “It takes adaptability, resilience in the face of adversity, endurance, humility and grit, and the ability to work with different personalities. These are the few characteristics, in my view, that separate the good from the great. Set your doubts aside and apply! Afterall, he who dares, wins” So, do you have what it takes to win? If yes, then The Insurance Apprentice may be for you… Why should I enter? What’s in it for me? The exposure provided by The Insurance Apprentice enhances a person’s credibility as an insurance professional.

Once entries close
Once applications close on 30 September, a regional roundtrip will take place in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town, in search for the top talent. If you have been chosen to go through to this round, you will be notified. This will happen in October – so it’s one day out of office in October.
After the elimination rounds, the top 30 will be invited to a Joburg elimination round, where they will fight for their spot in the top 10. This will happen in November, and we will fly the Durban and Cape Town contestants in for the day. One day out of the office… one day to invest in giving your career a decent boost. On this day we will announce the top 10 contestants for TIA2023.
Filming will take place at the end of January 2023. The series will be aired early 2023 via the FAnews and The Insurance Apprentice websites, YouTube and Facebook.
