      Insurance Sales Agent Interview

      31 Oct 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Anaheim, CA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Transamerica (Anaheim, CA) in Oct 2016

      Interview

      I never applied for an insurance company! I got a call from them and the gentleman said its a financial company and works with money and do finance! He invited me for an interview! I asked him if he can email me the address and he said is it ok I send you a text message?! I said its ok! I didn't know the name of the company since I got the address and searched that on google map to see what it is! I went there 15 minutes before and saw few more people there waiting for an interview at the same time as me! they took us in a meeting room and showed us a video and then a presentation about the company and percentage of people who are their customers! They said its not a sales position! I never want to work as a sale position but what they are looking for are sales people but they want to call it something else! After that presentation each of people invited one of us who came for n interview in to their office and talked with us about how is the process! at the end of that he told me I have to give them my credit card and DL as I have to pay $ 100 to enter to the system! Thats was so weird! I have a master degree in management and I don't know how they can do this! They called me and never said its a sales position! I went there and asked them and said no sorry we do not have any sales position! we offer different kinds of job in management but sales! but its all lies! all they want is sales people and nothing else! I declined the offer and came out from the office!

      Application

      I interviewed at Transamerica

      Interview

      Went well, just seems to be somewhat of a pyramid scheme in all honesty. I would suggest independent research beforehand. I am still skeptical of how things will go. Look for other reviews before making your choice.

      Insurance Sales Agent Interview

      6 Dec 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Harrisburg, PA
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Transamerica (Harrisburg, PA) in Sept 2016

      Interview

      Responded to an ad on craigslist with my resume. Was called to set up an interview. Arrived at interview to find the whole process kind of 'scammy'. Wasn't asked any questions about myself or any of my work history. The interviewer went over a hiring packet for the duration of the interview, mainly covering how I would be getting paid. I think the company hires new sales people with the expectation of them to fail, after selling some life insurance policies to some friends and families first.
