If this sounds interesting to you and you are interested in diving into the Cloud while constantly learning, this is an exciting opportunity for you!
Incumbency: This position will have an 18-month incumbency period, beginning on the effective date of the position, which must be met before the employee can post for any other lateral State Farm position.

In these cases, the remaining incumbency would be waived. The incumbency period does not affect the at-will relationship between State Farm and the employee and does not create an employment contract, nor contractual rights.
