real estate - experience, job, career?

[triska]

Hey
I was wondering if anyone here on the boards had experience with real estate
I am applying for an internship, something to get a feel for it
but is there any place online or some books that should be read?
I am an industrial engineer looking for a career, but the whole 10-12 hr days
crunching numbers doesnt seem so appealing. or maybe im not looking in the right places
so yeah, if you got any input
it would be much much appreciated
thanks a bunch guys

I work in real estate, there are many aspects to it, so it depends what you're looking to get into.

Yeah, there area variety of aspects to real estate. What sort of job at you looking at real estate agent, an investment analyst, builder or something else? I know people doing each of those and a few others.
