How to Get Into Private Equity ($300K+ 2 years out of college) | Process & Study Materials

Learned a lot about private equity timelines. Thanks Angela!

Thanks a lot for sharing!

fantastic video!

Another great video!

The “promised land”

This is an awesome video! Thanks Angela :))

What do you think about FMVA?

This is good info, thanks for sharing!

Do many ppl in DCM go to private equity - with the debt capacity analysis, acquisition finance + merger modelling etc, it seems very aligned to what DCM bankers do already?

From what I read I see mostly those in an M&A group tend to focus on private equity / the exit opps

Can I get into investment banking with just a business degree but not finance? So for example first an internship and then move forward? Do they accept just business degrees with not finance modules? Thank you

Belid 123, asked a good question and mine is very similar. I have a business degree in accounting from a non traditional school. How could I get into investment banking? Even if it was with an internship first. I just thought it was harder because they recruit younger individuals versus someone older

Are there target unis you should have attended in order to land a job?

I don’t know u but I love you🥴🤣

I joined a BB a few months back as an experienced analyst but have not seen any email communication from PE recruiters (only for other IB roles) that you mentioned in your video. Do these recruiters typically only target those who are right out of school or would it take more time for them to reach out?

I am an analyst in investment banking and in on cycle process I got into pe firm will they promote me to VP or more without MBA.If yes which company does that.

Great video 😊

Thanks for sharing

Wow 300k… that’s crazy!

stuy alumni are all the same

i’m 22 and a biochem major, is it too late to change my major and career path?

Hi I was wondering graduating from a target school is essential or atleast extremely comman among private equity and if I didn't graduate from a target school what are my chances of going into such a position

Thank you so much!!!

What about GCSP? It’s not on your list

Do you have a video on “how to get into hedge funds” ?

Maybe you want to tell your audience about the following? The insane stress of missing one small detail and causing a deal to fall apart, the dread of defending another deal to the IC, the politics, preparing agendas, taking notes, getting that intralinks notification that the data room just opened at 7pm on a saturday, staying up until 4am creating models 10x more complex than could be possibly necessary, working 100 hours a week for weeks on end with no acknowledgement, competing with a bunch of type A sycophantic humorless freaks for brownie points, completely thankless, soulless work, wasting the best years of your life enriching people wealthier than you ever will be given the glory days of this industry are a decade plus behind us.  Oh the "prestige" of being a private equity financier 😆

Quite informative!

What did you major in that helped you get selected for investment banking?

What about real estate private equity?

I was wondering which prepping materials were best for PE recruiting? I know you mentioned Financial Edge but what is the most worth it that your analyst class had used?

I just start my full time IB analyst position at a middle-market investment bank at San Jose. Because my firm is a relatively small form, is this something(email from headhunter) I’m going to get?

Hi Angela, thanks for the video, may I know if financial edge is better or wall street bootcamp is better? Many thanks!

Great video

Hello Angela, would you be willing to share your email with me. I am an aspiring PE analyst and am wondering if you would be willing to join me in a 15-20mins informational interview.

Once you’re in the space how hard is it and how stressful is this type of work? I’m a 19yr old majoring in finance and I took some interest in the private equity space along with VC and I’m curious on the type of work you do, the hours, etc.

Can a comp sci major work in finance??

so do you make $300k+ ?

How to be a huge turd. These comments feel like bots. Garbage

hello I am trying to find your video regarding wall street prep just found your channel and loving it so much knowledge addition many new learnings

Is it too late to use your code one year later?

Could I get into private equity if I have no investment banking experience but I do have the private equity certificate from Financial Edge?

Hi Angela, thank you so much for this informative video. I was wondering if one just does the Investment Banking course from Financial Edge, can it prepare them a private equity role. I have seen that the course modules for the IB course and the private equity associate micro degree are sort of similar

It is possible to get salary for entry level associate base 150k+ bonus 150=300 (total compensation)... private equity bonus 100 to 150%?

Hi again, I watched your other video on investment banking video and I commented on it there and you replied back. Are you working in investment banking or private equity? I know you recommend Financial Edge for learning about investment banking and private equity, but are these courses enough to get an entry-level job in either profession? You also have a link for financial courses from Wall Street Prep, which are less expensive than Financial Edge, can the Wall Street Prep Private Course get you an entry-level job in either profession as well?

I’m currently retired, and considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, I decided to stay on the sideline for awhile, now I’m worried with the numerous bank failures as of late, am I better off reinvesting my savings in the stock market or do I wait?

Hey Angela

Question if I am branch manager for bank can I break into PE firm ?
