BERKELEY, CA—​​With the commercial real estate industry constantly clamoring for new blood, one organization is going to the source to attract young professionals. The Northern California Chapter of the Society of Industrial & Office Realtors/SIOR in collaboration with the SIOR Foundation recently hosted a career development event at Cheit Hall at the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley.

The event is a continuation of an SIOR-sponsored educational partnership with Cal's Fisher Center for Real Estate and Urban Economics, and specifically with Cal's undergraduate real estate club. The career development night was the third event organized and sponsored on behalf of Cal's undergraduate real estate club.
