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
