Interview a minimum of 3 brokers. In a short sentence this is one of the first things you have to do to find the right home for you and your license. Next, ask to speak with one of their top agents (licensees) and ask that person what they like about the firm and the broker; do they get reasonable training, do they get adequate support, how long have they worked at this firm. Finally ask your friends who they believe has the best reputation and the best group of licensees. When you first go to work in this profession, the reputation of the firm is your reputation, until you have been in the business long enough to form your own reputation you must rely on the broker with whom you place your license.
