What really irks me? The largest career agencies tend to use similar patterns in recruiting, providing company leads, and hands on training to newer salespeople. How can any agent succeed with the statistics stacked so high against him, and the agency unwilling to take blame or make changes?

Let's look closer at the hiring system. Career agencies hire new agents two ways. The first is a good size ad in the local Sunday newspaper promising lots of income and plenty of benefits. The other is a recruiter hired by the career agency to attend job fairs and similar events to talk to college seniors. Chances are the college recruiter may have never sold a single insurance policy. When the career agency runs the newspaper classified ad, the sales manager is the guilty one. He not properly trained in the art of determining beforehand if he is hiring a true salesperson.
