CBRE Financial Consulting Group?
So I’ve been pitched the cbre financial consulting group and the capital markets rotational program as I wrap up my last year of undergrad. I was wondering if anyone knows about or has personal experience in either of these positions. Seems like they get experience underwriting in excel/argus but are basically analysts that aren’t assigned to a specific team or property type. I want to get into brokerage but don’t know if the pay/exit or growth ops are there. Would love some advice - thanks.
I did CB’s summer program (an institutional team). FCG is a great op out of undergrad. You’ll crank models / Argus the entire time and learn modeling very well - but you probably won’t touch multi as most of the multi teams have dedicated analyst. Path here is either to get the experience and then recruit to buy-side, or join a brokerage team after (less common). You prob won’t get a ton of visibility into each brokerage team’s process unless you’re on a specific FCG team like national partners but a good way to get reps and build a reputation. Also good if you don’t know what you want to do in RE yet.
If you’re 100% on going principal side prob better to just recruit there.
I wasn’t on FCG specially but know many who were. I went to a top 3 global GP/developer after undergrad (west coast).
Would also say it depends on which part of your personality you want to double down on. If you want to go brokerage and can shine there, would be good to spend a year or two in the numbers to have a strong foundation. But could also join a specific deal team where you’d get early exposure to the full deal process.
