Cushman &amp; Wakefield Interview
I am a Finance student who would like to go into Commercial Real Estate. I have an interview with Cushman &amp; Wakefield in a couple weeks for a full time analyst position. How do you recommend I prepare? I am not worried about the behavioural questions but am more so nervous about the technical questions. I am taking an Argus training course right before the interview and I believe that will help but what else can I do. Any help is appreciated

Analysts are a support role and can be replaced, what they really want are revenue generators that bring in deals.
