In the real estate industry, the newly qualified real estate agents choose to change profession already after a few years in the industry. Starting processes for the newly qualified real estate agent is under pressure as the inexperienced real estate agent only has a base salary for six months since the salary is followed by the commission in most cases. This means that the newly qualified real estate agent must learn the profession within the time frame of six months, otherwise the newly qualified real estate agent will most likely be without a salary. The purpose of this study is thus to investigate and gain a deeper understanding of what tools are required to facilitate the newly graduated transition to working life and what the organization can do to facilitate the newly graduated real estate agent's transition to working life. The study is based on a qualitative method where three interviews are conducted with real estate agents who have worked in the profession from one and a half years. Interviews were also conducted with three well-established real estate agents who are primarily responsible for the training of new graduates and the office's employees. The theoretical framework is used as a starting point for analysing the results The results indicate that it is about the interaction between the organization and the individual. Without the interaction, the opportunity to make it easier for the newly graduated real estate agent fails. Despite the real estate industry is considered an independent profession, it has been shown that there is a great need for support from colleagues during the start-up period as a real estate agent. This is a support that also continues and becomes a mutual relationship between colleagues. Support also has an impact on the individual's self- esteem and whether the newly qualified real estate agent will believe in oneself as a real estate agent
