I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Aflac in Mar 2010
Interview
I received an unsolicited call from the local AFLAC office since they saw my resume on CareerBuilder.com. After a brief conversation, I arranged to visit the office for an in-person interview. The interview itself was primarily the District and Regional Sales Coordinators explaining the advantages of AFLAC and very little questioning regarding my background. Since all AFLAC agents are independent contractors on 100% commission, the company tries to recruit as many new agents as possible, since the drop-out rate is very high. Since I have multiple sources of income, I was interested in AFLAC as a potential add-on to my current line-up of activities. After two or three more meetings, I sat for the insurance licensing exam and signed a contract. I am currently an AFLAC Associate, although I do not devote much time to it. If a good opportunity to sell their products comes up, I will pursue it, but I don't do the exhaustive prospecting and cold-calling practiced by other agents.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Aflac
Interview
A bit like super day for me. I interviewed multiple managers in one afternoon. All of them were friendly and did not press me too hard. 30-40 percentage of time was them introducing the company culture, hiring role responsibilities, and expectations for the role.
I was not informed that the position was compensated only in commission. I left when I realized that there was no pay for this contractor position. It was highly unprofessional and a huge waste of my time.

Question 1
Nonsense like, do I have a "book of business" so I can bring my own clients to this unpaid position.
Had one interview with the RSM and got offered the job immediately following the interview. Seemed more like a meet and greet than an actual interview. This was very easy and not difficult at all.
