If someone is trying to become a bail bond agent, there are a few things that you need to do. According to the video, you’ll need to be 18 years old in all states before you can apply. Depending on what state you want to be licensed, you’ll need to take the certification course in order to be licensed.
These courses will have an hour requirement, as well as an exam that you must pass. Once you pass the exam and pay the licensing fee, you’ll be able to start working as a bail bond agent. Keep in mind that some states will allow citizens with felonies to be agents, while others do not. You’ll have to look into your state specifically to find out how that applies to you.
Another thing to keep in mind is that this career will require you to be on the clock, so you can get calls any day of the week, and at any time. You can also get calls on holidays if someone needs assistance. Finally, you need to have experience working with people and being able to manage different personality types, since this is a person-focused career and will continue to be.
