Question 1
Can you follow the tried and true steps to success?
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Co. (Portland, OR)
Interview
Met the main agents at a Portland, OR Area job fair. Was quickly offered an interview. At the interview found out the job was on commission. Later research claimed that job could be long and tedious, with possibility of "fees" charged if any of "your" clients left the company. Couldn't confirm this however, so that may have been for a different position/scenario. I've had prior sales experience and didn't enjoy it so I decided not to pursue the job any more.
Would you be comfortable calling clients? (They insisted that the clients numbers came on a list, but it sounded like some cold calling would probably be involved).
