    3 to 5 years is about the average. The best thing you can do, is to consider some other employment for the foreseeable future.

    Each company has their own policy.
    Submit an online application to several companies before any phone calls.
    Which state do you live in?

    Texas is a big place. Can you narrow that down a little bit?

    If you can hold off for 5 years, Magnum will talk to you...if you can go to school on your own, maybe try Wiley Sanders. I'd just submit apps to every company. Nothing to lose, especially in these times.
