Is anyone familiar with the CRE Career environment in Australia
Hi all this is my first post here

I'm a uni student in Sydney wondering how I'll be able to break into RE IB, Brokerage, REPE or REAM eventually.

I have tried to do my own research but its all very catered towards US markets. Is there any difference in how to break into these roles in Australia?

Network is very limited so I don't have ways to speak to someone in the field apart from a post like this and cold LinkedIn dm's

Any advice or insight is appreciated cheers
