I recently just joined NAIOP as an associate in the developing leaders program in NYC. I was wondering if anyone had any advice or experience in networking via NAIOP, specifically which events to go to, how events go, what to expect, and how to present yourself. Personally, I am hoping to network into an Acquisitions role sometime early next year and have invested time into completing the Adventures in CRE Accelerator program.
Any help would be appreciated!!
What are you doing currently? Student, in another job, etc.?
Currently ~3 years after undergrad. Worked as a commercial credit analyst and now am a CMBS new issuance analyst at Big 3 Rating Agency
Would be interested to know how valuable the NYC NAIOP is for students as well.
Go to the national events, very worthwhile (not saying local ones bad, but national is where you see the "heavy hitters"). You can also access the national member directory and reach out to people (the "im a fellow NAIOP member" thing is great way to get responses).
Will say, in NYC.... you should also join ULI (generally each city has a more "dominate" group, and in NYC its ULI).
Hey thanks for the advice - will definitely also join ULI. How have you approached networking through the events? Would you only contact them if they are working at the company you applied to? Also any advice on how to effectively reach out to people via cold emails and get a reply?
