Looking for some solid advice on job/career path

currently entry level analyst in corp real estate (non-RE firm) for past 8 months doing basically financial operations for a F20 company.. First full time job out of school. i dont like my current position at all. it sucks and is basically data compilation. its basically a financial analyst role with no RE experience being gained. There are 1 or 2 other groups within RE there that im sort of interested in that i can potentially switch to. company allows internal job applying after 1 year. I really like the people here and have even gotten really friendly with one manager on a team im interested in who i can use as a network if a job opens up on his team however thats unlikely as they operate rather small.

im mainly interested in acquisitions/Asset Management within a pure RE investment firm. i have intern experience as i worked for a small firm for a few months. My main question/advice im seeking is, do you think i should stick it out for a year and revaluate then? ive been applying to RE firms but pretty much nothing in regards to interviews. i have an interview with a tech like rather notable firm (not F100) next week for an analyst for their RE, basically analyzing leases and potential ones, financial reporting, etc. thing is, not sure if it would be any better lol. Any advice appreciated.
