My favorite attribute of all of the interns I've had over the years are kids who are just there to be a sponge and soak in the knowledge and then surprise me when they actually have some basic skills.  \n\nAlso, congrats on the internship, asset management is a great place to create a foundation of knowledge in CRE.", "replies": [{"id": "dftfaqk", "text": "Perfect thanks for the advice.

Ask good questions about things you don't understand directly with whoever is mentoring you after.", "replies": [], "depth": 3}], "depth": 2}, {"id": "dg0se4e", "text": "Was coming in here to write this exact post.\n\nListen, do more than is asked, don't wait to be told what to do, never be afraid to ask a ton of questions.", "replies": [], "depth": 2}], "depth": 1}]
