Analyst vs. Sales Roles in CRE [Where To Start] // When you're first trying to break into the commercial real estate industry and trying to land a job at an investment or development firm, the standard entrylevel position is usually an analyst role.
But on the brokerage side of the business, starting at the analyst level isn't always a prerequisite, and some companies will actually allow you to jump directly into a production or salesfocused position right away (even if you have no experience in the industry).
And while going this route might sound like you’re effectively bypassing the analyst level, there are definitely pros and cons of going this route that most people don't know the extent of before jumping into the business.
So if you’re looking to start your commercial real estate career in brokerage and want to know whether you should be shooting for an analyst position first, or trying to jump straight into production, in this video, let's talk through the positives and negatives of each of these options, and which path might be the best fit for you.
