I just went through the interview process with a handful of private equity firms and debt funds. Of the points you mentioned I found the most challenging to be making sure you have a clear understanding of the company’s investment strategy and clear vision of where you see your career in the industry. In regards to the latter, I find that question particularly difficult to answer concisely as someone who recently graduated and isn’t exactly sure where they see themselves ending up.
Your content is great, since I have landed an analyst job recently with a US based firm, I can guarantee these were the criteria on which I was judged too. Awesome work done bro, really appericiate it!
Thanks for another great video! I am someone who graduated with a poly sci degree, but am working on getting my REFM certificates. Do you think firms would want to hire me?
I'm going to agree with Justin here. You are going to want to learn on a PC. Mac's are considered the go to for artistic, design, video editing all the kind of stuff but for finance the go to has always been PC. In my professional career I have never worked anywhere that has given me a Mac computer.
I love the content. I am going through your Udemy courses currently. What would you say are the most selective/ prestigious commercial real estate positions for soon to be college graduates? Analyst positions at CBRE, JLL, or Cushman?
I was curious about getting into this. Currently doing brokerage part-time with a top, but independent broker… was considering pivoting. Can this be something that can be done part time in your opinion?
Commercial Real Estate isn’t a part-time gig like residential. The only way it works out is if: 1. You’re working full time at a brokerage where you practice as an agent/broker doing residential deals and getting your feet wet with local small commercial deals Or 2. You work a salaried position at a big CRE firm and get deal exposure on what they have. I’ve been in Brokerage since 2015 and full time since 2017. I wish I knew about this industry back in college because I would’ve gotten started back then.
@@AmiltonLBaptista Great feedback and agreed - CRE brokerage is really a full-time endeavor and I haven't seen anyone do this successfully on a part-time basis.
