CRE Job Hunting Advice?
I have recently moved from NYC to San Francisco and am trying to break into development or the investment side of the industry. I have 3 years of CRE experience and completed my MSRE in December. Does anyone have stories or advice on the best way to find a job in a new city? I am networking like crazy but haven't gotten very far from it yet. Thanks!
