RE has slowed down IMO. Still some work in multifamily and new construction/development (and workouts/restructurings/foreclosures), but hotels, office, retail not doing great at the moment for obvious reasons. Have heard of multiple layoffs, but not mass layoffs yet, and I don’t think we’re going to mass layoffs since this is clearly a temporary pandemic related issue.

Would love to hear from others on what they’re seeing in RE. Please share your geographic market/firm size/relevant info.

I’ve worked at places that all have different holiday policies. EA has at minimum a nice 10 day shutdown from Christmas Eve through New Years. It’s great to know that there will be no slack messages or an exploded inbox to come back to while away. I’ve been at other studios that only give you Christmas Eve & Day and New Years Eve & Day and then the rest is up to you to request for PTO and this is obviously the suck.

I keep getting rejected branding agencies for roles despite having freelanced at some amazing places and done positioning work there or at ad agencies. My sense is that they only want people who have worked at Interbrand, Superunion, Futurebrand, etc & aren’t open up outsiders. Is that right? Am I doing something wrong? Should I even be chasing these agencies? I feel like it’s a constant uphill battle and I’m losing the strength to keep going.

So I have a second interview today for a role (job 1), but another manager within the company reached out saying the hiring manager for job 1 shared my resume with her and she’s really interested in me for a job she’s posting soon (job 2). My 1st interview for job 1 went really well as far as I know. This feels unusual! I am interested in hearing more about both roles, and I really clicked with the job 2 hiring manager when we spoke on the phone and she informed me she’d love for me to apply.
