Soph insterested in RE
currently a sophomore becoming interested in RE. don't know where to start/ how recruiting timelines look or much in general about RE. can someone give me a quick crash course on what to know
So I am a junior so I just went through the RE recruiting process. If you are looking for a internship this upcoming summer (Sophomore going into your junior year) I would start applying now even though I know that it can be pretty hard to get one as a sophomore its def still possible. RE recruiting for summer analyst positions start end of August through March the latest I believe. I recently got mine in October but I know some of my friends are still recruiting! This cycle seemed pretty competitive I interviewed to at least 20 ish firms and only got 1 offer and have been interviewing since Sept. so just shows that it was a pretty competitive process! Hope this helped
yeah recruiting usually starts sophomore spring for most major shops for junior summer. KKR/Sculptor/Ares start jan feb (maybe apollo too), others roll through spring (STWD is latest for the mega funds). Best bet is hitting up alumni/networking right now before recruiting starts. Other firms will recruit later into junior fall for junior summer.
Technical side pretty straightforward at entry level. Know the basic NOI build. Case studies usually just test if you can think through a deal logically. like "here's some market data and property info, what would you do?" nothing complex. most important thing is showing you actually care about RE and can talk through your thought process.
Interviews also contain asset-specific specific questions. Know your property types (office/multi/industrial basics) and being able to discuss trends. like do you think multifamily or industrial will do better in the next 5 years. My school had a lot of resources in terms of the technical prep (argus course, which isn't necessary, and technical guides, which do help). I personally also used WSO threads and real estate interviewing (dot) com for my technical prep, which helped cover the information I hadn't learned about before.
Any tips for Reib?
I would start looking into different RE sectors and figure what ur interested in and tailor that to different companies you are applying/interviewing for. Join your colleges real estate club and go to the meetings. I just got my offer as a junior who only applied to about 10 companies and networked for two. To be honest I just got lucky as fuck as I had one strong connection refer me to my top choice and got my offer yesterday. Defintely not a dealbreaker if you don't get an internship this summer just work to build skills for your resume and network with alumni especially. I got the real estate financial modelling certificate from WallStreetPrep and learned a lot from that.
