Getting started out of college

Hello everyone,

I am i rising senior pursuing degrees in business management and psychology student at UNC Charlotte. Real estate started to interest me a couple years ago while looking around at all the apartments, business, and houses and thinking , "someone has to own these, and i should be able to get a piece of this pie." I recently discovered the Biggerpockets podcast while randomly searching for real estate related podcasts. Since then i have listened to at least 3 podcasts a week trying to learn as much as possible and it is fascinating and very motivational.

currently i am i full time student and have not worked for about a year. however, i have an excellent credit score, very high credit limit and now a little bit of credit history. I am looking to get a job or internship in real estate or property management but with the pandemic it has been very difficult to find career level employment. I have been in the restaurant industry since i was 16 and could go back to that, but a job where i can gain knowledge for future success is what would be most beneficial. So i am struggling to see where to start off in my real estate journey. its very overwhelming and these specific times does not help.

Charlotte seems like a great potential market to start out in, many houses are being built and renovated all over the place. if you are in my area i would love to connect and even if you are not, my phone and inbox is always open.
