I am interested in a career change . I have been in accounting for the last 18 years and have been very successful in that. But I thrive on challenges and have considered insurance before, but now I think I am ready to try it.
I have no training. I would also need to be employed (making money) while training. How long does it take to get a license? How difficult is it? What are the different types of licenses involved with selling insurance. Which insurance should I consider: Life, Health, financial planning, property, casualty?
I have thought about calling a local insurance agent to see if they would allow me to intern? to see if I would like it. Would they do it? I guess I need a mentor to answer the questions I have. I wanted to do this years ago, but I was not financially able to and put it on the backburner.
I have been reading the posts on this board and would appreciate any help.
Thanks! Linda
