What does it take to become a state farm insurance agent? |
I'm considering becoming a State Farm insurance agent but know nothing about their process. What do they require? What important facts should I know? How time consuming is it? If not State Farm, then what company is better and why? Thanks for your help.. State Farm is a great company to work for. As you know they are the top auto insurance company in the nation, therefore the company is in a stable financial position. To become an agent at State Farm you need a bachelors degree, most likely in Business Administration. Most agents start out as Licensed Staff, meaning they work for an agent to learn about the company, procedures, sales and they take care of licensing requirements in their state. Then you discuss becoming a Trainee agent with the Agency Field Office in your region. As a Trainee Agent you will train side by side with a current State Farm Agent, often a retiring agent. When that agent leaves you open your own office and the company alots you some of the clients of your retiring agent or other retiring agents. I think becoming a State Farm agent is rewarding and has a secure future. Today, State Farm has a strong hold on the auto insurance and personal lines fire business in the United States, but new State Farm agents are encouraged to sell Life, Health and Financial services such as long term care policies so you will need to be licensed in all of those areas, which you can probably take care of while you are working as Agent Staff. Hope that helps Source(s): I work for a State Farm Agent! www.statefarm.com Honestly i know verry little about state farm. I have been told that they are very agent friendly and their rates are very competitive. Those things (in my mind) are very important. I can tell you that NAtionwide, is great company to be an agent for right now. We are truly becoming a force to be reckoned with. At Nationwide you have to have you license, pass a background and credit check, and have all e&o claims evaluated. Most agencies have issues if you have e&o claims though. 5+ Years in insurance.
