A lot of companies/agencies will hire without an insurance license, or at least give you an offer and time frame to purse, and most will pay or reimburse you to get them. I got my license in 2011 after getting an offer with no experience and started at a life and health only company, basically in a call center two days a week and door to door and in home appointment 3–4 days a week, commission only. I did that for 5 years until I changed to a primarily property and casualty insurer while also still offering financial service and banking in predominately an in office setting.
There is also nothing stopping you from pursuing your licensing without having a job yet to strengthen your resume for when you do start applying. The cost is only $250–$500 total for the study material and or class and fees, for either the property and casualty, or life and health, here in Indiana(Check your state DOI for the cost). Getting licensed before hand would certainly show your serious about the opportunity and eliminates some of the risk on the employers.
