DOD Skillbridge (Internship)

My name is Elijah Maestas, I am 21 years old currently serving in the United States Air Force, stationed at Scott AFB, IL. I am reaching out to find if any real estate companies may be interested in taking on an intern starting December of 2023 through the military DOD SkillBridge Program. This program enables military members to separate active service 6 months early to intern at a company of their choice for up to 180 days, while still being paid by the US Military.  While currently in Illinois, I would like to return to my homestate of New Mexico or near by. If the SkillBridge program is something your operation might like to participate in please let me know. I can also provide more in depth information on both the SkillBridge program and myself (references, etc). Thank you !

Replied

I'm active duty Air Force and decided to get my license a couple years before I retire. I would recommend getting your license now to build your foundation, especially while you have a steady paycheck.

I may need to switch brokerages when SkillBridge comes around for me, but hopefully not. I've mentioned it to my brokerage, but I'll switch if it means I have a 180-day internship.
