Feel like I still need more info but the greystone role sounds more foundational / rounding for CRE. Both are great companies to work for though. Tishman development is very prestigious. I’d say if you for sure know you want to pursue a career in the development space then tishman is better.

the greystone role gives you underwriting experience which is very valuable - translates into a investment focused / real estate finance career- like REPE. It comes down to your long term goals, really think where you see yourself in the next five years. Both are great roles imo and will teach you a ton.

 

Thanks for the insight! I definitely see what you mean about the underwriting experience at Greystone being foundational for a variety of finance and investment roles. I think part of my hesitation with Tishman is that the corporate finance aspect feels a bit more removed from the direct real estate side. If there was a clear path to transition internally to development or asset management, it would probably be an easier choice. What additional details would be helpful ?

I feel like Tishman hires MBA’s for the development associate side (I know two who went the MBA route to break into development), so that is the common pathway.   Maybe they have analysts, and you might be able to get a position.

Since this is a college internship, I’d go with Tishman because the name could help you with your job search later on, even if corporate finance. 
 

Have compassion as well as ambition and you’ll go far in life. I am interested in digital immortality. Check out my blog at digitalimmortality.com
 

Key question - is the Tishman role a RE role? Cause corporate finance at a firm could mean FP&A for the company and not relate that much to the real estate holdings.
