Greetings from California

[layla2016]

Hello,

I appreciate the active dialogue in this forum and the compelling content to help a newcomer agent find the best match for an insurance career.

I just passed my license exam and making a career change from
Teaching and Direct Sales for past 20 years - was also a small business owner in solar -- my goal is to start 2016 with a career in insurance and doing just that.

While studying for license exam I called on and interviewed perhaps 15-20 different insurance opportunities and learned a great deal about the many different factors which make up ' a great agent job' I am still overwhelmed by much of it and hope this forum will help with clarity.

May you all have a profitable and healthy Happy New Year!
Layla J.

Welcome to the Forum, Layla!

As you go through the interviews, I would advise that you don't make any decisions until you run it past us on the forum. There are many organization (not just insurance companies, but agencies as well), that you won't want to get hooked up with. Better to run it past us unless you get "stuck" somewhere that you should have never gone with.
