Met at career fair on campus (UW-Madison). Followed by online automated interview. Last step was I Flew out to McLean, Virginia headquarters for Freddie Day. They have two Freddie Days a year. They paid for everything plus $100 a day food vouchers. Two interviews at tables in a room where others are interviewing at the same time. Headquarters tour was cool. McLean seems boring, all the new hires seemed to have long commutes. Great company, really seem to care about employees. Unbelievably diverse, I’ve never seen anything like it before. Seems like a great place to start your career, exit options are all top real estate firms.

Interview is almost exclusively personal. Very few technical questions. Topics to review: LTV/LTC DSCR How Freddie Mac creates value (securitization of loans) Sectors of Multifamily How do you evaluate Risk General Personal Questions Have a list of questions to ask each section of interviewers.
