Looking mainly on the development/acquisition side. I am open to other areas of CRE, but would like to focus here first.

Hi all,

My name is Luke Miller, and I am a junior at the University of Iowa majoring in finance with an entrepreneurial management certificate. I am looking for advice on how to break into the CRE industry, looking for an internship in the industry this coming summer. My GPA is 3.11/4.00, I have recently joined a real estate club on campus, am in a stock investing club, as well as have previous mortgage internship experience. I am proficient with Microsoft Office Suite.

I have cold emailed around 30 firms and formally applied to around 20 positions, getting some responses and setting up interviews in March. However, I have not received a lot of feedback. Does anyone have any tips on things I can do to get my foot in the door or boost my resume to meet the criteria for positions in this industry? Any feedback or tips would be appreciated.

Thanks!
