From Military Life to Corporate Real Estate with Sajit Sankar

Welcome to Episode 2 of Real Estate Unplugged. Today I’m joined by Sajit Sankar, Vice President of Corporate Real Estate for MasterCard. He handles many real estate functions within this capacity. Sajit shares his background about growing up in a military family in India, and what he aspired to achieve as he grew up. He shares his own military background and the path that led him to where he is today. It took getting comfortable with being uncomfortable for Sajit to make the transition from a military career into real estate. One thing that Sajit stresses is the importance of education and he shares a message of inspiration for veterans that may be struggling with a career path. A great take-away message is that your job does not define you and you can do much more beyond your job. Sajit shares what two things he looks for in new hires and how being adaptable is important.
