Breaking into private equity straight from college is difficult, but it isn't impossible with the right strategy. Without years of banking or investing experience, you need to find ways to demonstrate strong investing ability, build relevant experience, and position yourself as someone a PE firm should take seriously. This session is for college students who want to pursue private equity early and understand how to stand out without following the traditional path. You'll learn how to approach recruiting, build the right skills and experience, and differentiate yourself from candidates with more conventional backgrounds. Join live to hear from a PE expert, former CVC and MUFG Director, who has worked as a hiring manager and understands what firms look for when evaluating candidates. The speaker will share firsthand insights into breaking into PE, including how to position your background, build credibility, and approach the recruiting process strategically. You'll leave with a clearer sense of what it takes to turn an unconventional path into a real opportunity in private equity.
