<prompt> Human: Just received my economics degree in December. Looking to switch careers. Went to a career fair and spoke with a couple recruiters on campus last week.Im being courted from two different companies for a Financial Services ProfessionalRepresentative position. I have had an initial meeting with both, successful first interview, second interview scheduled. Both of these jobs are basically selling lifedisability insurance, annuities, and other financial products. They are with reputable, nation wide companies and are not a pyramid scheme. They involve prospecting, but not cold calling or going door to door. Has anyone have any experience selling insurance? Im really interested in hearing the things the recruiters will not tell me. Is this a waste of my time? What was it like? Why did you leave? What is the annual turnover for insurance salespeople?Im a bit skeptical that this will meet my needs 50k. Im also concerned that their business model is based on a steady turnover of eager grads who get duped into selling insurance.  <response>: This is a run of the mill sales rep job. They churn through thousands of new hires each graduation season. You will be expected to contact everyone you know and sell them insurance and possibly high cost mutual funds. If you manage to survive the training program and make quotas you will be a full time sales droid. If not, you will be pushed out for the next crop of new grad hires. Look for a better job, Just because there are two companies doing this doesnt mean these are good jobs.
