专业书评 A rare look at how to navigate the difficult private equity hiring path
A career in today's private equity (PE) arena—which also includes venture capital as well as PE fund of funds, hybrid funds, and secondary funds—can be extremely rewarding. But with the popularity of this profession on the rise and the number of candidates far outweighing the positions available, landing a job in this field can be a difficult endeavor.
Gaining a better understanding of the PE career path and how the hiring process works is a distinct advantage for those seeking to break into the business. And Getting a Job in Private Equity has the targeted advice you'll need to achieve this goal. Here, you'll discover what it takes to make it in PE from different "entry points"—out of undergrad, as a pre-MBA, from business school, and even once you've been out of school for several years—what sort of experience is needed to set yourself up for a position, and what can be done to improve your chances of landing one of these limited opportunities.
Along the way, Getting a Job in Private Equity also offers case studies of more than thirty people who have successfully navigated the PE hiring path. These people candidly discuss what worked for them, what their interviews were like, and what, if anything, they would have done differently. Sample resumes from fifteen of these individuals are also included.
If you're seriously considering a career in PE, you have to become familiar with how firms hire. With Getting a Job in Private Equity, you'll gain invaluable insights that will allow you to stay one step ahead of other individuals looking to secure a position in this field.
