Evan’s Private Equity Qualifications
Experience level: Associate
Evan has helped clients get into these companies:
Private Equity Investing Associate with previous bulge-bracket Investment Banking Experience. I'm fit to help candidates break into Private Equity because I was an underqualified candidate who used a proactive networking and self-education strategy to stand out in the interview process and ace the technicals. When I quit my Track & Field team to pursue Investment Banking in college, I was already behind my peers' technical prep, recruiting, and club experience. I spent the next few years playing catch-up, which prepared me for the very fast on-cycle recruiting process for Private Equity Associates. All of this is to say, I understand how you may feel like there are many candidates that are more qualified than you or have overcome greater struggles, but I can help you position yourself to get your dream job.
