Exceptional State Farm Agencies looking for outstanding Sales Specialists with a track record of sales success, to advise current and new clients on their insurance and financial services needs, and provide solutions. Career opportunities available in a challenging position with excellent compensation package and benefits. If you enjoy a fast paced environment, if you have initiative, and if you are a sales professional,

Answer 1

Depends on how good you are.  It is probably a commission job.

Answer 2

You could earn about 34,000 plus commission if your really good at talking to people. I didn't read anywhere the job described if there is a base salary. You need to find out if there is a base salary because you could earn 34,000 an up. However if its only commission, you should pass it by unless you have excellent sales skills an another job to fall back on today.

Answer 3

When it comes to insurance sales, what degree you have is meaningless.  A high school drop out could do it if they went through the courses and passed the test.

Since no pay is listed, State Farm, I believe, works on a draw.  They give you a certain amount each month, you make sales.  So long as your sales exceed the draw, you get the extra money.  If your sales come short of the draw, you get the draw.  That being said, you have to make up the difference.  If you have several months of not hitting that amount, they will fire you and put your account probably with collections.

Again, this is just speculation.  I have no knowledge of what their pay system is like.

Answer 4

40,000
