Real Estate Career Roadmap (optional)

“Nick was extremely informative and gave me a lot of solid and practical advice. He answered all of my questions clearly and thoughtfully. I really appreciated that he gave me an actionable plan for how to approach recruiting and developing my career in general. He was very open about sharing his own experiences. He also gave me helpful perspective on how to differentiate myself during the recruiting process and make my conversations with professionals more meaningful. I feel like I have a clearer understanding of what I should focus on and concrete next steps. This was overall a helpful and valuable conversation. ”

Real Estate Mock Interview

“Nick was fantastic. He didn’t just glance at my resume and give me generic advice—he explained exactly why it wasn’t telling the story I wanted it to tell, then helped me figure out how to fix it. He pushed me to be more intentional about how I talk about my experience and gave me concrete steps to prepare for interviews, from tailoring my resume to practicing financial modeling. I also appreciated how candid he was. When I asked about real estate capital markets versus sales and trading, he gave me his honest opinion while being clear about his own perspective. He shared interview guides, answered all my questions, and offered to do a more detailed mock interview if I move forward with JLL. I left with a lot of work to do, but also a much clearer idea of how to do it. I’d absolutely recommend talking with Nick.”

1) What should I do to beef up my resume besides another internship in fall/spring? - Network. That GPA won't get you into anything unless you network.

2) Whats the entry level compensation like in PE/development as an analyst? Senior comp? - Probably like 50-70k, depending on the market and job.

3) What kind of internships should I shoot for if I choose either? - Sounds like you've already got some internships finished/ lined up. If you want to be on the Dev/ Ownership side, try and get an internship there.

4) Would furthering my education with a MSRE or MSRED be worth the $$/time? - Yes and no. Don't expect it to take you from 50k a year to 150k a year. But it can give you an edge if needed.

5) Pros/cons of brokerage? - Shits stressful
