Sure I'm just getting into insurance and I would love an expertise outlook on how the industry has changed.
 
Since you are just entering the insurance industry, it doesn't really matter how the industry has changed over the years. Suffice it to say that there are less career shops (captive agencies) than previously, forcing new agents to seek training from FMOs/GAs. National agent associations, which once were a source of training and networking, are suffering from dwindling memberships and rising costs. The American College still has some great home study professional designations that used to be classroom based. Various government encroachments and legislation have hampered marketing and sales activities. Nevertheless there still are many opportunities for success.

Hello Robert,

I would be interested in networking as well. I'm in Charlotte, NC but I'll probably be going to Durham in the next 2-3 years as part of my fiancee going to PA school and me going to pharmacy school.

Feel free to send me a PM (I have all the necessary posts ^_^) if you want to talk further!

My daughter is a UNC PharmD graduate. I presume by PA you are referring to Physicians Assistant rather than Pennsylvania. Looking forward to sharing ideas. Keep in touch.
