I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CBRE in Nov 2014
Interview
I worked with a talent acquisition agency. My first round by phone with an agency recruiter. We talked through my interest in the position and how it relates to my background. The second interview was in person at their offices. This interview delved deeper into my background and mainly focuses on my transferable skills. The third interview was over the phone with a CBRE recruiter. We discussed my background, interests and questions I had. I have been invited to a fourth round interview in person at the their offices.
Two or three rounds. First was behavioral. Second was a modeling test. Third was presenting the text and pitching business. Met with the team and guy who ran the whole office. Overall was a great experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain how you would underwrite this and pitch this business.
The interview with CBRE consisted of only one round with the team I applied for. Asked questions on past job experience and why I want to work for CBRE. All behavioural questions.
Asked a lot of background information, and also asked question regarding views on property market and capital market etc
Some of them seems not quite related to the job
Maybe the interviewer is testing the candidate about the sense to the property market

Question 1
How do you think the capital market will be in 3 years?
