MRI Network Commercial Underwriters wanted BUUUT not you mortgage people!

This is the kind of complete BS I see from the Commercial Lending side which in my mind is completely discriminatory towards mortgage underwriters wanting to expand their own knowledge & become better educated within the underwriting field. How can you just bar a whole field from applying?

I've said this in another topic, but Commercial Underwriting & Lending need to get off their high horses. This position CAN be taught, you don't need a Phd in finance!!

To be fair, yes Commercial Underwriting is way different, it is more involved, it delves farther into corporate financial structures, accounting, profit & loss on a corporate scale but it can still BE TAUGHT!!!

Joe in Laguna Niguel!!! I agree with your Big BS about those Commercial Ads. But I have over 33 years in the Lending Industry. With 20 years in Commercial and 12 years in Mortgage Lending. But the people that are hiring for Commercial have a sheet of paper with all the Key Words they are looking for a Commercial Underwriter. Like if you used words or sentences on your Resume that they don't understand. They will pass over your Resume. Here are some of those words and sentences: Risk and Exposure Factor, Review and coordinate quality control along the due diligence material required for syndication, Review Third Party Reports required for syndication including; market studies, engineering review, environmental review and appraisal, and etc. I got my trained in Commercial Lending from one of the biggest banks in the World, Lloyd's Bank when they did banking here in the U.S. The thing that I tried to say is that the hiring people are either clueless or stupid. You are right about you don't need a PhD in finance!! All you need is Math Skills and Common Senses.
