Career Resources

 

Our students get great jobs after graduating from GW! CRES helps counsel students and opens the door for them through a host of networking opportunities throughout the year. We also distribute an electronic resume book each fall to more than 900 GW alumni in real estate and 100+ employers to get our students noticed — and hired! The ability to access our large, growing and active real estate alumni network gives GW students a tremendous edge during their job searches. Our alumni are thrilled to speak with our talented real estate students and have helped many with their job searches.

As a student at GW trying to find real estate internships and jobs, CRES helped me distinguish myself from other applicants by offering real estate coursework, Excel workshops, and networking opportunities.

Job Search Resources

Finding real estate internships and job opportunities can be a daunting task, as, unlike many other industries, many real estate opportunities are never posted. Word of mouth is a major source of information about real estate jobs, which is why networking is so important to students interested in real estate. Undergraduates are strongly encouraged to join the Commercial Real Estate Network (CREN) as our student club offers numerous opportunities to engage with alumni and others.

Below is a listing of sources and websites where you may search for real estate internships and full-time jobs.
