Which Commercial RE Job Teaches You The Most?

My goal is buy/sell/rent Single-Family homes after I finish school. Skills I am looking to acquire between now and then are how to evaluate residential RE markets, how to accurately forecast property cash flows, and how to make up leasing contracts and evaluate prospective tenants. 

My problem is I have no money right now and will graduate(December 2021) with approximately 25K in debt. I have a degree in Finance and am pursuing a Master's of Real Estate. My plan is to pay off my debt and fund residential RE deals by landing a job in Commercial Real Estate. I have no aspirations for climbing the corporate ladder. 

My question is what job in Commercial RE should pursue? Which will teach me the most about buying/selling/renting single-family homes? Should I pursue mortgage banking, investment groups with focus on multi-family asset management, development, real estate brokerage, valuation/appraisal, etc.?
