I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at State Farm (Roswell, GA) in Mar 2013
Interview
The usual employment paperwork which takes about 15 to 20 minutes to complete, make sure to bring a resume, your license and social security card. Interview itself was pretty casual, started off with a little chit chat. I met with Joe, and all the interviews start with him and then he may have you sit with one of the existing employees (this is a good sign). Interview can range from 15-20 minutes to over an hour. Questions are typically from an interview printout and they are designed to make you think about the answer and not just yes and no type of questions. He will always ask what you know about the insurance business and/or sales so you need to have an answer.
