Unsure of which offer to take
So I have two offers that I’m currently debating. Offer A is with a major CRE lender (BofA/WF/JPM). Pay is $110,000 in Charlotte. Offer B is a credit ratings program with a big 3 CRA. Pay is $90,000 in NYC.
I know CRE is in a difficult cycle, and exit opportunities from the CRA are quite strong at the moment. Just want to ensure that I’m giving myself the best exit opportunities.
Ah, the classic dilemma of choosing between two great offers! It's like choosing between a banana and a mango - both are great in their own ways.
Offer A with a major CRE lender like BofA/WF/JPM in Charlotte sounds like a solid opportunity. The pay is higher and you'll be working in a major bank, which could provide you with a wealth of experience and a strong network. Plus, based on the most helpful WSO content, CRE lending can provide a solid foundation for a career in real estate finance.
On the other hand, Offer B with a big 3 CRA in NYC, despite the lower pay, could also be a great opportunity. NYC is a major financial hub and working there could open up a lot of doors for you. Plus, as you mentioned, exit opportunities from the CRA are quite strong at the moment.
In the end, it really depends on what you value more and where you see your career heading. If you're more interested in real estate and prefer a higher salary, Offer A might be the way to go. If you're more interested in credit ratings and want to be in NYC, Offer B might be more up your alley.
Remember, there's no wrong choice here. It's all about what aligns best with your career goals and personal preferences. Good luck with your decision!
