Real Estate Jobs for 3rd and 4th Sem and Fresh MBAs

If you are a 3^rd   or 4^th Sem MBA student or have already completed your MBA but are yet to get any confirmed job offer from recruiters then this news if for you.

Today most of the MBAs do not get suitable employment offer on campus. The other problem is that once they are out of the campus, they lose their demanding position to seek suitable jobs, whatever they have.

This problem occurs because it is an established fact that most of the graduates of MBA institutes today do not possess any employable skills. They need to be trained in different areas even though they have studied the same programs for two years.

Despite this huge availability of MBAs, real estate companies have been facing huge shortage of professionals at entry level. It is not that these companies do not get applications in response to their job recruitment advertisements. The problem lies in the scarcity of quality applicants. The applicants who respond to the job advertisements do not possess the skill sets required by real estate companies for different types of real estate jobs.

NIREM being an educational institute and closely associated with HR Managers in real estate sector understands this contradictory situation pretty well. There are several real estate developers, consultants and other recruiters who regularly recruit NIREM students.

Therefore considering the huge requirement of quality but fresh professionals, NIREM has started a customized program of one week duration on ‘Real Estate Marketing’ in association with these recruiters. On completion of the course, students will be placed in real estate organizations provided they meet the various requirements of recruiters and the institute.

During one week of class room training, candidates will be exposed to various subjects of real estate including legal aspects, sales & broking, market analysis, sales & negotiation skills etc. On completion of the program, HR managers will conduct interviews of the successful candidates and will recruit as per their requirement. Suitable and industry standard compensation will be offered.

Next batch will start in mid-January, 2014 and offers for real estate jobs will be given to successful candidates once the program completes. To know more, please call at 7827.88.4220, mail to info@nirem.org or visit www.nirem.org
