Avantages
- The opportunity to learn the basics of how mortgage/loan processing work in the context of real estate law - Good chance of getting permanently hired once you are efficient enough in processing documents, so there is some merit; you often start off as a temp through an agency they work closely with. - Solid work experience for those that really need anything for the time being; requires very basic computer and document literacy and input skills. - You are compensated slightly more for any overtime hours you need to work once you're permanently hired - A designated break room with snacks
Inconvénients
- Prepare for longer hours depending on the season; gets particularly busy around tax season; up to 50 hours/week during the busiest times. - Since this role is essentially the frontline of the entire loan process, expect to be among the last to leave the office - Some specific tasks aren't covered in detail during initial training, so you may need to ask around often with more experienced colleagues in the beginning; you will need to be self-reliant in this regard
