Hi All,
Was recently told that CBRE has their new hire analysts fly to Chicago for an underwriting "bootcamp" style training program for 2-3 weeks? (after they get hired) Can anyone confirm accuracy? I am lining up an interview and just wanted to hear if anyone had experience with this?

Hey there,
Based on the most helpful WSO content, I don't have specific information about a CBRE underwriting "bootcamp" style training program in Chicago. However, it's common for many firms to have intensive training programs for new hires, so it wouldn't be surprising if CBRE has something similar.
I'd recommend asking about this during your interview process to get the most accurate information. It's a great question that shows you're thinking ahead and are serious about the opportunity. Good luck with your interview!

Are you interviewing as an analyst for FCG in CBRE?
If that's the case can confirm they fly you out to train you, they normally fly out the newest hiring pool in the summer to Denver. Could be the case they switched to CHI as a large portion of FCG sits there. Can speak on this as I was part of CBRE FCG up until recently.
Yes - analyst role for CBRE FCG
Got it - they will teach you FCG Best Practices for utilizing Argus Enterprise and learn about their macro enabled workbook. Along with other underwriting strategies/problem sets.
When I interviewed with them I remember the MD stated he preferred hiring people with minimal experience AE so FCG can "mold them" into their way of thinking seamlessly - so no stress if you don't AE experience
