Most people who go into the insurance industry apply for sales jobs, such as an agent or broker. Many insurance companies offer workshops and seminars to educate people on the business and recruit employees. And the companies often train them and help them pass the required tests.

So your best best is to simply contact insurance companies and say you'd like to gain entry-level work in the field by selling insurance.

About the only thing that you really have to decide is what type of insurance you want to sell: auto, life, health, etc. Some companies specialize in one type, while others are more broad-based.
