Friend is looking to get into CRE in Texas. Any advice would be wonderful.
One of my best friends is about to graduate from a small school in East Texas with a degree in business management. He is incredibly smart but lacks any experience in the field. I believe he is looking at project management. His preference is Houston. Does anyone have any advice on getting started or finding a decent job to start out? Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.

This field is foreign to me so I apologize if I sound like an amateur lol.

Here's what I'd do: identify a couple jobs I think I'd like to have mid career. Find companies that have that role and read the job description. If after reading the job description it still seems like what I want to do if look at the required experience and education and see what I'm missing. Find a job that will allow me to gain that experience.\n\nIt'll likely be entrance level, but he's just starting out. He can also try to leverage relationships he had at his school. If he's looking for construction project management there are bigger companies here like Spawglass and Vaughn, and there are always medium and small construction companies that specialize in all types of projects.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "f1mq3gz", "text": "hi!
