I applied at shell. It's one of the few places I will leave my operator job for. I don't like starting over but the retirement is way better.

I'll be working for Heritage PNC, I take my insurance test Wednesday and start in about two weeks. Basically you get 13.5% commission off sales, each service is $10,000 to $20,000 or whatever package they decide. You have to sell a minimum of four a month, at $15,000 a plan that would put you right at $100,000 a year.
Even if it's not what they say, I won't have to work the long hours like in a plant and it's a more laid back style of hard work. My stepmom was top dog saleswoman at Dignity memorial and made well over $100,000 a year. She wants me in with the pipeline but I don't want to leave here. She quit because after about 7 years all of her customers she had seen every week started to pass and she got really depressed, it's not the happiest line of work. I'll put up with a lot for a nice paycheck though.
Best part is I can still go to college, that was the icing on the cake. PM me if you want more info on it.

Wear khakis and a button down or 3 button polo. You could even wear jeans but make sure they are nice...not all ripped up and raggedy. Also, no sneakers. You should be clean shaven with a fresh haircut. Basically, don't go in there looking sloppy. If you do, you will be written off before the interview even starts.

Don't overdress. No suit or slacks.
