No Experience Needed: We provide comprehensive training covering storm damage identification, insurance claim fundamentals, effective door-to-door sales techniques, and safety protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions

For door-to-door canvassing positions: Absolutely no prior experience required! We provide comprehensive training covering storm damage identification, effective door-to-door communication techniques, safety protocols, and insurance coverage basics. Many of our current top earning canvassers had zero sales experience before joining Allied Emergency Services.

For sales representative positions: While previous experience in roofing, construction, insurance, or business-to-business sales is definitely preferred and can accelerate your success, it's not an absolute requirement. We provide extensive training on industry-standard Xactimate estimating software, insurance claim processes, and our proven sales methodology. Highly motivated individuals with excellent communication skills and strong work ethic often succeed regardless of their previous background experience.

We provide comprehensive storm restoration services across 155+ cities throughout Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Michigan. In the Kankakee region specifically, we actively work throughout all of Kankakee County, Will County, Grundy County, and surrounding communities including Bradley, Bourbonnais, Manteno, Momence, Watseka, Gilman, Clifton, Ashkum, Chebanse, St. Anne, Aroma Park, Hopkins Park, and Sun River Terrace. Our extensive service area extends to cover storm damage restoration anywhere within a 2-hour drive radius of our Oak Brook headquarters, providing our sales teams with abundant territory to work in and maximize their income earning potential throughout the greater Chicagoland region.

We offer flexible compensation structures tailored to different roles and individual preferences for financial stability:

Door-to-Door Canvassers: Commission-based pay per qualified appointment set ($100-$250) plus additional performance bonuses for appointments that convert to signed contracts

All positions include reliable weekly pay and additional performance-based bonus opportunities.

¡Sí! Absolutamente tenemos excelentes oportunidades para profesionales hispanohablantes. We actively recruit bilingual team members throughout the Kankakee region as many homeowners prefer to communicate in Spanish when discussing storm damage and insurance claims. Bilingual canvassers and sales representatives often earn significantly higher commissions due to their ability to effectively serve a much broader customer base and build stronger relationships with Spanish-speaking homeowners. For information in Spanish, text EMPLEOS to (844) 907-2546, or call our main number (800) 792-0212 and specifically request to speak with a Spanish-speaking recruiter. We provide comprehensive training materials and ongoing support in both English and Spanish to ensure your complete success in our program.
