ELIFIN® Apprenticeship Program
10-Week Intensive Training for Future Commercial Real Estate Agents
October 5, 2026 Class | New Orleans, Lafayette, Baton Rouge
Unpaid • High Commitment • High Opportunity
ELIFIN® is Louisiana's #1 commercial real estate brokerage by number of sales. Our top producers earn well into six figures and beyond, work with the highest-caliber clients in the state, and build careers that give them the flexibility to be there for their family and friends.
The Opportunity
The ELIFIN® Apprenticeship Program is how we build the next group of top agents. It is a focused 10-week immersion designed for individuals ready to launch a career in commercial real estate brokerage, trained directly by ELIFIN's Sales Manager and the top producers in our market. This program is built for people already licensed or obtaining their license during the program, who are ready to go all in on building a career as a professional CRE agent.
We are opening up a maximum of six (6) spots in the October 5, 2026 class.
Why ELIFIN®
Louisiana's #1 commercial real estate brokerage by number of sales. 2,000+ deals closed and counting. Clients include the CEOs, investors, developers, and business owners shaping Louisiana's growth.
Purpose-driven, high-accountability culture. 57,262 prospecting dials in 2025. Year-over-year revenue growth of 40 to 70% for each of the last two years.
Proprietary data and technology. AI-powered research tools, automated buyer lists, and market intelligence give our agents an unfair advantage. A traditional brokerage cannot replicate it.
$87 million in open commission opportunity across New Orleans, Lafayette, and Baton Rouge in 2025. Territory is wide open for agents ready to compete for it.
Everything required to win, already in place. Culture, team, sales system, training, low direct competition, and a track record to back all of it up.
What You'll Do
As an ELIFIN® Apprentice, you will start building the habits, disciplines, and knowledge base that allow new agents to perform at a high level from day one. Over the 10-week program, you will:
Train directly with ELIFIN's Sales Manager and our top-producing agents
Become an expert in your specialized area of focus
Participate in regular training sessions covering the full commercial real estate deal cycle
Learn the fundamentals of prospecting, outreach, and cold calling
Shadow agents during meetings, pitches, and property tours
Gain exposure to marketing strategies, lead generation, and pipeline development
Work alongside high performers who move fast and expect excellence
Push yourself harder than in any other job you're considering taking out of school
This is an action-driven, high-intensity environment built to prepare you to succeed as a full-time agent. It is not an internship. There is no busy work. You are not doing tasks for someone else. You are building yourself.
Who This Program Is For
You are an ideal candidate for our apprenticeship if you align with the following:
Demographic
Recent college graduate or current student in your final semester
Prior sales experience is a plus (CRE preferred but not required)
Able to live without guaranteed income for the 6 months of ramp time as a new commission-only agent, without working a second job. Success in CRE brokerage requires you to go all in and be totally focused. Our top producers earn well into six figures and beyond.
Geographic
Call the market you're applying for "home" and want to stay connected to your community
Psychographic
Coachable, driven, and relentlessly opportunistic
Want to win, not coast
Focused, self-accountable, and able to push through discomfort
Value mentorship
Enjoy being recognized for results
Want freedom, flexibility, and the ability to earn uncapped income
Willing to do the hard work necessary to obtain your ideal lifestyle
Confident communicating with business owners, investors, and high-net-worth individuals
Gritty, likable, curious, competitive, and believe in yourself
What Happens After the Apprenticeship?
The expectation is for top performers to transition into a full-time CRE Agent role at ELIFIN®, where income potential is uncapped and tied directly to your results. Top producers at ELIFIN earn well into six figures and beyond.
Each agent specializes in a certain type of property and location ranging from selling multi-million-dollar apartment buildings to leasing retail space out to the city's hottest new restaurant. From leasing office space to some of the world's largest corporations to selling large industrial warehouses. And those are just a few of the specialties. The agent positions we have available are exciting, fulfilling, and lucrative for exceptional people who are willing to put in the hard work to get what they want out of life.
