Choosing RE Career

Hi all,Looking to pursue a career in RE and wondering how you chose your area of RE whether it be acquisitions, brokerage, IS, AM, etc. Why did you choose your path and what are some characteristics that make people excel in those fields?Thanks!

 

I personally found internships to be the best indicator of preferred path, as well as lots of networking. Talk to as many alumni from your school as you can about how they started their careers/what they wished they had known when they started out.
