by an investor from Duke University in Texas, USA
UPDATE: WE HAVE RECEIVED TOO MANY APPLICATIONS ALREADY AND ARE NOT ACCEPTING FURTHER APPLICATIONS FOR THIS BATCH
We are seeking two interns to assist us with deal sourcing (broker-led, no spamming or cold calls), market research, due diligence, financing, and some financial modeling. You’ll get exposure to all parts of the deal cycle and walk away with technical skills, market knowledge, understanding of the deal sourcing/closing process, and more.
This unpaid internship would suit someone looking to break into Investment Banking or PE.
Benefits:
M&A experience: You’ll gain hands-on experience in business acquisition and investment analysis from end-to-end, incl. but not limited to, technical skills, market knowledge, understanding of the deal sourcing/closing process, and more.
Mentorship and guidance: With strong performance, you’ll gain recommendations to other jobs or MBA programs, access to my network, and if desired support with MBA applications. I leveraged such an internship myself to break into Investment Banking over 15 years ago -- I want to give back and will do my best to provide mentorship and networking support.
1) Commitment: ###-###-#### hours per week, for 12 or more weeks (all negotiable)
2) Unpaid
3) Virtual
4) Ideally start in or before early June, but negotiable
