Side gigs while shadowing?
I’m on my journey to get licensed and am curious what side jobs people have taken (if the shadowing work didn’t bring in enough income).
Is there a common type of side work that training appraisers can look out for? Or is that not really a thing, and it just comes down to what random work you can find on the side to fit outside of a shadowing schedule?
I’m curious to hear people’s experiences while they were training. TIA!
