Curious to hear about entry recommendations into the real estate profession.

Spent 10 years in education (direct classroom, school administration, national level consulting), and spent from the industry and linear, static financial progression.

Anyone else move into the field from other industries? Key lessons learned from the experience?

I've done my base level research on licensure, potentially through a national broker, but would love thoughts and insight!

What type of real estate? I’ve learned that there’s more opportunities in real estate debt than equity so look into working at mortgage companies too.

Hey all, having issues with interviewing this year. I’ve been passed over every opportunity I really want and I’m unsure how to regroup and move forward. I’m really trying to break into method development roles and I haven’t had the opportunity to do so with my analytical experience. A lot of my HPLC and LCMS experience is with already established methods. Any tips?

Confession: The only in-law that I had a great relationship with passed away unexpectedly. The two remaining in-laws were on thin ice with me prior due to years of drama, nagging, and disgusting display of wealth.

I want to have a family and a future that is drama-free and full of love and don’t want to surround myself with negativity.
