THANK YOU FOR
YOUR INTEREST!
State Farm agents are independent contractors who hire
their own employees. State Farm agents’ employees are

requirements and training programs are offered or must be
successfully completed by their employees. By accepting
employment with a State Farm agent and/or successfully
completing any licensing or training programs required by
a State Farm agent, you are not guaranteed, promised or
given any form of selection preference, should you choose
to leave the agent’s employment and pursue the
opportunity of becoming an independent contractor agent
for State Farm. If you choose to pursue an agency
opportunity, you will need to apply and go through the
regular State Farm agent selection process.
