Is starting your career in acquisitions at a REIT a good way to eventually pivot into Acquisitions at a REPE?

Probably depends on if the reit is the same asset class you want to focus on in REPE

Ah thanks-how difficult is it to transition from one asset class to another? Say from Hospitality to MF or Industrial?

Not sure. I work for a SFR reit and acquisitions there probably wouldn’t translate well since they are mostly 1 house at a time. That said if you learn hospitality or MF it probably isn’t difficult to learn others and is definitely a step in the right direction.

Yes

Underwriting MF is probably the less complex from all real estate asset classes. Very easily taught.

I recently had an interview with a very promising pre-IPO company in the AI/ML space for a SE leadership position. The interview feedback was better than I expected, but with a twist. They have already given the offer to someone else, but they still want to bring me on board and they asked me what I would like to do. I am in the process of gathering more info, but it is tempting to ask about pivoting into product management. What would you do in this situation?

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)

Does anyone else experience this? Are my expectations unreasonable?
