Post by sean_x2 »

I just got my Fire and Casualty license and am considering to join networkedins.com. This way I don't have to be appointed as a captive agent or start from a local agency. Could any one please comment if this is a possible solution, and pros and cons? By the way, I have some insurance background from doing work for an insurance agent. Thank you so much.

If you're just starting out, you need guidance. Working for a mid-sized agency will be a great benefit. As you don't indicate where you're located, it's hard to make a recommendation.

Check out who the local mid-sized independent agencies are, and find out if any are hiring.

I'd suggest contacting someone from the IBA Silicon Valley association. They can point you in the right direction as to which independent agencies are hiring.
