Question 1
Why are you interested in working for State Farm Insurance?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at State Farm (Berea, OH) in Apr 2025
Interview
Interview was just okay, included the owner, office manager, and another sales agent. The male agents seemed nice but the women were not that friendly. Seemed like a red flag that the one ignored me when I said hello. Seemed a bit too tight knit for me.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at State Farm (Novi, MI) in Nov 2024
Interview
Asked me about insurance industry. How extensive was my knowledge in that field. How comfortable I am in sales. Typical questions. Most important thing is to have a property and casualty license. Must get it on your own. They do not assist in acquiring it.
