I had a quick question to ask. Once you pass your training school and get your liscense to become a bail enforcement agent how hard is it to get work from bondsmen. I am new to this field and am going to start a carreer really soon as soon as I move to the west coast like I said in my previous message. Do you start out going on bountys and just watch and learn without getting paid or do they just start you like your a professional. Thanks GOD Bless.

Most bondsmen will most likely not hire you without experience, due to liability issues. You will need to make contact and work with another agent for training. The area that you decide to settle in will determine the work that you are able to get.

So once I get done with my training from a bail enforcement school I should call some agents around the area where I will work and ask them If i can start out hunting with them just to get a taste of the job then work my way up the ladder until I get noticed? Also I was thinking about Denver, or Colorado Springs any info on them cities about bounty hunting there would be great thanks. GOD Bless.

Competition will be rough anywhere you decide on. Make sure you take the training required in whatever state you want to practice in. Most of the required training is paid, any additional "on-hand" training may be paid, or free to you if the teacher is using you for backup as well as training you without additional charge.
In other words, we use people for backup without paying them, because we are also teaching them at the same time. Most agents who provide "on the street training" work in this way.

Another thing, choose your training school with much caution. There are some schools out there that will not provide you with the right training or tell you things that may get you into legal trouble. And, as others have said, find yourself a good paying day job! The competition is very tough!! And many courts in the country are releasing on OR now which negates the need for bail enforcement/fugitive recovery.

Thanks!! I know there is the Pacific Northwest Bail Acadamy in Washington, The National Institute of Bail Enforcement in Colorado and another Bail Academy in Colorado. Are there any more training schools in these two states. Also which one's would you recommend.
