This edition of NAAEI’s Apartment Jobs Snapshot looks back at the apartment job market during 2020. Apartment jobs remained resilient in 2020 throughout challenges brought on by the Coronavirus pandemic. Monthly multifamily job postings averaged 13,072. Kansas City, Austin, Houston and Dallas ranked highest for markets with strong apartment job demand. Leasing consultants were particularly desired in Austin where demand was more than four times the national average. Maintenance and property management job openings increased year-over-year for both the conventional and student housing sector, however leasing positions declined.
