Quitting Graduate Broker Job after two years

Hi All,

I am considering quitting a graduate scheme at a top consultancy (think JLL, CBRE etc).

I am 3 months from taking the APC and becoming a chartered surveyor. However, for a range of personal and professional reasons I am considering quitting now.

How badly would this affect my chances of getting a good job in RE? I am open to most career paths and will start applying full time once my notice period starts.

Will this completely tank my career? I am happy to do it provided I will still be able to get a reasonable job. Just worried that I might end up completely screwed..

Any advice appreciated.

CF
