Turn this role into an interview — a resume and cover letter built around what this employer wants.
McCone Properties in Dubai is seeking aspiring real estate agents to help clients buy, sell and rent properties. The program starts with a two-week academy, then you join the floor with a mentor to accelerate learning and performance.
The role welcomes all backgrounds, offering training and a clear path to becoming licensed. Commission-based earnings are highlighted, with a proven top earner showcasing significant annual income.
The job you are training for is simple to describe and hard to do: help clients buy, sell and rent property in Dubai. A two-week academy first, then the floor, with a mentor beside you.
In 2013 I was a fresh graduate in Barcelona, and nobody was calling me back. My father, newly retired after twenty years flying for Emirates, was buying an apartment in Dubai. He asked the brokerage for a favour: would they give his son an interview?
They did. I flew out, started from zero, and never left. Twelve years later, McCone Properties is one of Dubai's leading brokerages — a team of 200+ people from all over the world.
A few years in, my mother Johanna joined the company. Her CV was twenty-five years spent raising the five of us — no real estate, no sales. She became one of our best agents.
The point is, we don't expect years of sales experience. We look for hungry, motivated people who are set on becoming very successful — whatever their age.
Commission only means exactly that: no salary. Some agents reach a stable income in their first couple of months; others need longer. That is why we recommend around six months of savings — runway to learn the market and build your pipeline properly. After that there is no ceiling: 50-70% commission, paid daily. The US$2.4M above is our best earner, not our average. But he is real.
If Johanna could start from zero, the question is whether you would.
