I'm a finance analyst in property and his role sounds identical to mine; month end, tenders, cost variance, reports.

If you have a non-cognate degree, you can also do a one year Quantity Surveying Conversion course.

I'm 27 and I decided to change my career into qs and I've found my post grad in QS difficult partly due to covid and everything being online. Also learning everything from scratch was difficult. Learning measurement in half a semester is tough. I'm on track for a merit however I still don't feel confident enough to go out there since its all theory.
@darrena4995
Do you think building surveying is a dying career
@carwynroberts3926
Great content, as always. Over lockdown I had sometime to reflect and decided to apply for a 'MSc Quantity Surveying' conversion course as it's a profession I admire and can see myself doing well at. Due to the government fiasco with A-level results it meant my application was pushed to the back of the queue (like we'll be after Brexit - lol) and only just got my reply - which is a unconditional offer. Now I have to make a snap decision of entering the course on a full-time basis or part-time basis. In the current climate, which one would you recommend? I'd be able to support myself for the year if full-time, but conscious of applying for positions with no experience in a years time. On the other hand, I think I'll struggle to secure employment with an employer if I went part-time (I'd be after a day release type employment and would be willing self-fund the course to make myself more attractive). Not asking for the holy grail of answers btw, just any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Very good info
@kbrp5493
Thank you information provided in this video. I'm an MSc graduate in QS, I have since been working as a bank monitoring surveyor for just short of a year but I want to get into a traditional QS role, preferably PQS. Despite this, I'm finding it difficult to land an Assistant QS roles due to having a lack of experience, which I somewhat understand as bank monitoring is very limited. Is there any advice you may have which may help me secure such a role. Many thanks.

Hi guys . Great videos keep up the good work. Have a quick question and it would be brilliant if you could answer it please. I am currently a qualified carpenter. Over the past few months I have been considering starting a part time course in quantity surveying. I was always very interested in the money side of construction and the career progression in quantity surveying. I am currently unsure what to do and I was wondering could you give me some advice if you had a chance please? Thank you .

Quantity Surveyors should concentrate on Technical Auditing. At least auditing of around US $ 12 Trillion Government funded constructions as Check & Balance for Govt. expenditure. It is done by Financial Accountants only for more than 100 years. The loss in these audited constructions reached US $ 4 Trillion per year in 2008,according to Transparency Internationals. This is an affront to the profession, as Quantity Surveyors are expected to give value for money.
@lukaszm7378
What hours do you have to work?
@cordster515
great video
@lukenicholls6726
Does it matter if you have a CIOB or a RICS for the quantity surveying role?
@bilalh4033
Great Video! I will be starting my journey into becoming a surveyor in September, as I will study MSc Real Estate Development. I was wondering if you had any advice about getting experience over the summer or even a position during the course year. I have been looking and messaging people and companies but haven't had any luck as they all require qualifications. Would appreciate any help!!
