7 Questions Every Real Estate Specialist Must Ask in Their Interview

Real Estate Agent asks questions in an interview

Real estate is an ever-growing sector in Dubai, which makes becoming a real estate agent a very rewarding career path. The big question you have to ask yourself, however, is which of the 2000+ real estate companies in the city should you join? The decision can be hard, as big names can sometimes make one overlook below-par conditions.

Researching the company’s culture, history, and future vision is key to finding the ideal company for your career growth. We’ve compiled the 7 ultimate questions to ask your real estate employer to ensure that you are joining the most suitable platform for your success. 

Does the company have a reputable history and culture of consistently providing quality service to their clients, as well as a professional environment for their team?

When joining a real estate company, it is vital to find out about their corporate culture, history and reputation in the industry. Being part of a reputable organisation ultimately reflects well on you, and adds merit to your professional standing in the real estate market.

What are the company’s growth plans, and how are they adjusting to the fluctuating market?

A company with a resilient plan that accommodates to the shifting economy and market trends is one that can provide you with career stability. Joining a progressively growing real estate brokerage guarantees a constant flow of leads and clients, thus providing you with the maximum opportunities to convert when the market is facing a downturn.

What training and support programs are provided by the company?

One of the most important issues to enquire about when joining a real estate company is the availability of internal training and support and mentorship programs. A company with an in-house training academy can drive your career and skills forward to vast extents, by providing you with vital knowledge of all the hard and soft skills required to become a successful real estate agent.
