On a serious note, Finance1 nailed it with this statement

You may want to consider finding a decent ISO that can train you. You'll have to split commissions but that's totally worth it in exchange for being trained on all the details of the industry. On the surface it looks easier or less complicated than it really is. Being efficient at identifying viable deals (chasing ghosts is a total time waster with no reward) and knowing where to place it so you don't get destroyed by competition (if you don't somebody else will likely come in do it) are probably the 2 most important things to learn as a new agent.
Do your research. Consider yourself the employer and your partners the employee. They have every right to interview you, but make sure you interview them just the same.
