What is the life of a new State Farm Agent like?
Can someone fill me in on what being a brand new insurance agent for State Farm would be like?
I'm going to be fresh out of college and so far it seems like I would have to figure out my own office and all that.
What is the employment test like?
Do you get to work under an experienced agent and then move up or how does it work?
I need all the ins and outs of the job please.
How much are you making? What convinced you to take the job? Is there a base salary while you're learning?
dont know where you live, in Florida, you can get your 440CSR and work under an agent for one year and then you can just take the test for the 220, or, you can take the classes and test for the 220 right up front.
if you are fresh out of college do you think you are going to be hired as a Principal agent for Allstate?
maybe you might, if your lucky but i would imagine they will require real world experience, like holding you 220 for a certain amount of time.
plus you need to buy an office and all your office stuff.
unless you can get in with another primary agent looking for a partner.
if you get your 440 first and hold it 1 year before getting your primary agent 220, that one year you can expect 10.00-12.00 per hour.-not enough to save up for that office.
and of course if you become a primary agent you will need to develop your own clients and then you dont make hourly, then your a business owner making solely commission and random bonuses.
Do you have a "good neighbor.."? -Ask HIM. He's supposed to be "There".!
