I applied online. I interviewed at CBRE in Apr 2026
Interview
Had a zoom call with the hiring manager about two weeks ago, had another call with a team of brokers a week and a half ago, and with another team last Wednesday. I’m going in this Wednesday to meet everyone and some additional people in person.
Accepted offer
Positive experience
Difficult interview
Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CBRE (Minneapolis, MN)
Interview
I reached out to an employee I knew and he referred me for the job. I was contacted via email for a phone interview then after the phone interview, I was contacted again via email the next day for an in-person interview the following day.
Internal recruiter gives you a call. If it’s not a good time to talk, then they will schedule a time to do a phone screening. After that, they pass the notes to the hiring manager to schedule an interview with them. Then after that, you are rewarded with another interview with team members (producers, etc). After that, you’re rewarded with another interview.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CBRE
Interview
A recruiter reached out, then I met with the Operations manager, and then I went in person to meet the team. They really only pressed me about my Adobe experience.....and then the main broker said something about how his team is a "family," and that immediately did not feel genuine. The whole interview felt a little off, honestly.
