Always be ready for a video. I had several interviews with the same firm and all were video optional - first 2 no video and on 3rd they all turned them on!

In the old days they used to make you go into the office for interviews. Imagine not even having a suit on for a Zoom interview?

Do you mean an in house position or a corporate firm job? For an in house interview a suit may not be appropriate

Thanks

I am asked during this RE analyst interview to build a real estate model from scratch. My background is commercial banking and I am used to analyzing real estate deals from the lender side not the developer. The interviewer is generous I must say he’s giving me a few days to complete. However this model is for a ground up multifamily development. I have no prior experience building one. I can find models online but all very complexe to reproduce. How would you handle? Do you have model to share?
