Last Friday, as a part of\u00a0Take a Patriot to Work Day<\/a>, Redfin agents in Northern Virginia hosted several students from George Mason University to give them an inside look at life in a busy real estate brokerage. Students had the chance to shadow agents and\u00a0learn about what makes up their day to day, from\u00a0writing offers to negotiating deals.<\/p>\n

“I\u00a0hope they’ll walk\u00a0away from the experience with a good understanding\u00a0of our business model and company culture and that they tell their friends and family that Redfin is a fun and welcoming workplace… because we’re hiring!” said Mary Gallagher, a Redfin recruiter.<\/p>\n

Jeff Moore, a GMU student said it\u00a0was a great opportunity to get a feel for the company. “I felt that everyone I met with truly embraced the values of Redfin.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe experience was outstanding. There is no other company I would want to work for if I was going into real estate,\u201d said Rashaan Mateen, a student in the School of Management.<\/p>\n

“Careers in the\u00a0real estate industry are\u00a0not often\u00a0on the radar of students,” explained Gallagher. “However,\u00a0Redfin’s model of providing a base salary and benefits along with\u00a0a team atmosphere, mentoring and rapid growth potential makes becoming a real estate agent an attractive and far less intimidating option for recent graduates.”<\/p>\n
