Will State Farm hire me as an agent if I have a misdemeanor theft charge from 4 years ago?

Question

4 years ago when I was in college I was stupid enough to steal text books. I obviously got caught and received a misdemeanor theft charge. Will this stop me from obtaining the necessary licensing to be an agent with State Farm?

Answer 1

I'm so sorry, but a theft charge of any kind in the past 10 years would disqualify you - because of the payments & money-handling issue.

Start with Life Insurance!!!

It's where I started! And no - I'm no longer with them because I own my own agency - so I get no commission for sending you

Answer 2

Well, the first question - will State Farm hire you - probably not.  You're not going to be bondable.

The second question - will it keep you from obtaining licensing.  No, it won't keep you from obtaining licensing.
