RUN, far and fast

They send the same e-mail to everyone who posts on Careerbuilder or Monster. If you have your resume on there, you will get tons of calls daily from people wanting to interview you for a position with Aflac. I have gotten at least 12 calls in the past two weeks from different people wanting to hire me immediately. I agree, RUN and RUN as fast as you can away from these people.

First off, I find your username offensive. It takes away from your credability (seriously, I wouldn't be taking any advice from somone who calls themselves "D***weed). Second, why the 'Run as fast as you can..."?

I have made a very nice career as a commission only sales person with Aflac. All insurance companies aggressively recruit; I'm sorry your resume fell through the cracks and you received multiple calls (I really doubt it is 'at least 12' but I'm not going to belabor that point.)

One more point....Aflac cannot 'hire you immediately.' It's a contract, a business opportunity...there is no 'hiring'. You also must have a producers license, which takes time, and you have to attend Sales School...which also takes time. There is no immediacy to get untrained, unknowledable agents out there; they don't have a very good chance of succeeding. The District Manager I report to spends at least six months with new agents
