I'm going to an interview next week for a job. I'm somewhat confused as to what it entails exactly. Below is a description. Can you guys tell me if you think it's a cold calling job? I dread cold calling.

Job Description
This position is responsible for helping to negotiate insurance options employers in the New York Metro area. You will be corresponding with CFOs and Human Resources to obtain data so that their insurance programs can be marketed to the competing insurance carriers. Once the quotes are obtained, this data needs to be analyzed to identify the appropriate solutions for the client. Detailed excel spread sheets need to be created for presentation to clients and prospects. Acting as an intermediary, there will be a lot of contact with both the business owners (decision makers) and the insurance carrier underwriters.
Job Requirements
This position requires a college degree, strong math skills, knowledge of excel and strong verbal and presentation skills. Knowledge of employee benefits a plus. Some travel may be required.

No idea but I assume from the description you won't have to. Looks like this job is all technical work. Somebody else nets the client and then you work with them on specific details after.

Just ask them during the interview when they ask at the end if you have any questions to confirm
