What is the best way to get into real estate after college?

 I'm a junior in college majoring in Finance.  I don't really have an interest in corporate america, and I want to get into real estate as soon as possible.  

I need tips on where I should start looking. I've been doing so much reading about real estate and I'm just o ready to start making moves. Holding properties interest me the most, but I know I need more capital.

Are there certain career paths I should be looking at?I don't think I want to be  real estate agent, because I don't want to be  a salesman. I just don't know how to succeed on just being an investor when I don't have alot to invest right now.

@London Stewart Maybe you could get a job in the real estate field without actually being a salesperson - property manager, appraiser, home inspector, loan officer, etc are all jobs that will acquaint you with various aspects of real estate.  I went the RE agent route myself, but there are so many avenues.
