Could this job propel me to IB

Hey all,

Could a position within a real estate company with the following responsibilities help propel me into IB after a couple of years?

• Developing pro forma financials and valuations using IRR, DCF and other various techniques • Gathering and evaluating economic, demographic, and real estate market data • Preparing presentations, offering memoranda and financial reports for clients of the firm • Reviewing legal documents and other materials as part of the due diligence process or as part of on-going property oversight
