Farmers Insurance Protégé Agent Program

**You must currently live in the Portland, OR metro area to be considered for this opportunity**

Are you interested in getting into insurance business with the opportunity for future career advancement in an industry known for creating a predictable residual based income while getting paid?

Farmers Agents are multi-line insurance providers. One of the best kept secrets about multi-line insurance sales is that it has proven over time to be a relatively recession proof business and provides agency owners with the ability to control their time, increase their income and the freedom to grow.

The opportunity with Farmers has never been better. Farmers is a 98-year old, nationally recognized household name in providing insurance to individuals, families and small business owners.

Our Protégé Agent Program places you in a successful Farmers agency in your community, working directly with the Agent to learn how to sell, service and manage an insurance agency. After successful completion of the 12 month program, you will have the opportunity to qualify to be your own agent. Qualified applicants must be able to successfully complete a background check, obtain required insurance licenses and complete required training.
