I recently passed my real estate sales person exam, and now I am on the hunt to find a company to work for. Like any body in the real estate game I want to be successful and I want to learn a lot. How do I find that perfect company to work for, or can someone recomend a company. I live in Chicago.

Dunno about the real estate company,but from looking at your 360 page,wanna come stay on my "real estate"?(-;
Call realtors in your area. See if they are happy where they are working. Find the top three or four brokers by number of transactions and focus on those. Make a list of things that are important to you – flexible hours, commission structure, paid training, office perqs (space, phones, assistants). Find the two or three offices that meet the most, then interview at those.
Call around and ask them about their training programs for new agents. I have heard good things about Coldwell Banker and their training for new agents, but I never worked for them so I don’t know from personal experience.
Congrats on passing your exam!
No company is perfect, most agencies offer training, Keller Williams is a high ranking company, check out their stats thru your local Real Estate board. You could also check out careers with Keller Williams thru this website: http://www.crgr8homes.com
Find one that offers a lot for a new agent. Do they provide training, a helpful manager? And also be weary of the fees they may charge. They may charge monthly desk fees, and a new agent should stay away from that. But, the main thing is how the company treats its new agents. I had a great manager that answered every question I had, and he was glad to do it too. Also maybe you can find companies that allows you to work in the loan business too, as a loan officer. It can broaden your business, and if you have the right manager, you can learn about loans.
