American Family Insurance Interview Questions

Application

I applied online. The process took a week. I interviewed at American Family Insurance (Evanston, IL) in November 2017.

Interview

I had 2 interviews--one with the operations manager and the other with the agent. The interview with the operations manager was a lot easier. It was more getting a feel for me as a person. She barely asked me any traditional interview questions. I passed the first interview and interviewed with the agent a week later. The interview with him was a little more intimidating. He asked about my background and what it is that I do in my current insurance role. He also asked why I wanted to leave my current agency--why I was looking to relocate and change to a different insurance company. He was doing a lot of digging to make sure that I would ultimately be the candidate to fill the position. He liked that I was relatively new to the industry that way I can be trained "his way" and that I was licensed in property and casualty. I was offered the job 3 days later after all of my references cleared.

You get a interview to let you know what the job entails, sales! Sales! Sales! If you can handle sales then you must pass state licensing for PC and life. Then you fly out to corporate headquarters for a week long training about company. Then you have classroom training for six weeks are you are on your own. Must have money set aside for advertising, rent and all expenses of running your own business.

Interview Questions

Negotiation

No salary negotiating or commissions. It is what they offer and nothing more until you show you can produce for them

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at American Family Insurance (Parsons, KS).

Interview

I would describe the interview process as Lengthy. However, the current agent picked me to replace him as he was being promoted at the time. I worked with him already as his newspaper representative for the local newspaper and he felt that I had all the appropriate skills and ability to replace him. Which I did and was very successful in doing so. Moved the agency into a new office, and grew the policy count. However, it is with regret I turned the book of business back to my district manager due to the fact I was going through an awful divorce which required my children and I to live in a battered women's shelter..... Overall experience the three and half years I owned and operated the agency.

Interview Questions

Interview

You are pretty much in if you already have an insurance license and flexible work schedule. Training someone who has no insurance experience is proven to be very difficult. TIP: Learn as much as possible about insurance and you can be reimbursed for the cost of licensing by AMFAM.
