This release contains: 1 Photo, 1 Related Document

Allstate Insurance agency owners across Texas are planning to hire at least 400 licensed sales professionals by the end of the year.

Licensed sales professionals play a pivotal role in driving business for Allstate agencies in growing states like Texas. They work side by side with agency owners, educating and assisting customers with their insurance needs. That's why Allstate is encouraging its nearly 1,000 agency owners to continue to build their agencies by hiring top notch staff.

Interested candidates should have exceptional selling and customer service skills, a high school diploma and the ability to obtain or begin the process of obtaining a Property and Casualty license at the time of hiring.

"Sales positions with Allstate agency owners are a great opportunity for talented, motivated people with strong communication and customer service skills, to work with a world-class brand and an experienced sales staff," said Adam Pisani, an Allstate agency owner in the Houston area. "As agency employees, interested candidates will become licensed sale professionals and get the help, support and training they need to help them succeed."

Candidates can apply for licensed sales professional positions by calling their local Allstate agency owner in Texas or sending a resume to AgencySupportStaff@allstate.com.

Candidates are interviewed and hired by Allstate exclusive agency owners who are independent contractors for all purposes. Although licensed sales professionals represent Allstate, they are employees of the exclusive agency owner and not employed by Allstate Insurance Company.

The 400 plus available positions are located throughout the following cities/areas:

Abilene

Houston

Amarillo

Lubbock

Austin

McAllen/Harlingen/Brownsville

Beaumont

Midland/Odessa

Corpus Christi

San Antonio

Dallas/Fort Worth

Tyler/Longview

El Paso

Waco/Temple/Killeen
