Ok I am working on getting my real estate license what are some ways to break into the Real Estate world other than becoming an apartment Leasing Consultant.
Sales, development, appraisal, escrow....you have plenty of options, ask some people working in local real estate offices where you should start.
I don't know what real estate courses you're taking, but I recommend you stop because it sounds like you're not learning the fundamentals. EVERYONE knows that lease consulting is not the way to enter real estate. Most people enter it (with a license) to become a salesperson who SELLS real estate. Why would you enter it directly into property management or consulting if you don't have anyone to hire you for it (most of those people work for property management companies). You would enter it selling real estate. You will most likely start by helping realtors do open houses and ensuring an agreement is made between the two of you, you might get a cut of the sale, or keep the leads generated at open houses etc. That will be a good starting off point (I picked up two clients both looking to buy and one of them to sell as well with a budget of $1 Million to start). Or you can work as a licensed assistant as part of a team where you could be paid on salary or salary plus bonus or purely commission based. There's so many ways to approach real estate and you should delve deeper since your course doesn't do that for you.
