Lettings market provides strong career prospects for graduates
Graduates should be looking at the lettings market as a key target area for employment.With over a million under 25-year-olds predicted to be unemployed by the end of the year, job opportunities are few and far between. However, haart believes that opportunities exist in the residential lettings sector.
September and October heralds the usual scramble for jobs by school leavers, college leavers and graduates. However, this year has been particularly difficult for many because of the recession.
Working in lettings is very different to working in an estate agency. The relationship with a landlord and tenant can last for many years, and our employees have to have the right people skills to ensure that this relationship runs smoothly.
Although the residential sales market has slowed, the lettings industry is booming. Now is an ideal time for jobseekers with the right attributes to launch a fruitful career in property.
haart is a member of the Association of Residential Lettings Agents (ARLA) and offers a two-year structured graduate scheme guiding new recruits from induction to management.
Two years ago we successfully launched our lettings graduate trainee programme. Three members of the first intake are already managing top-performing branches and another is working as a business analyst for the operations team. These successes are a testament to the quality of our training scheme.
