How to Stand Out to PE Firms
Private equity recruiting is one of the most competitive processes in finance—and standing out requires more than strong technical skills. In this session, you’ll learn how top firms evaluate candidates, how to position your deal experience (or transferable experience) effectively, and how to craft a compelling story that signals judgment, ownership, and investing potential. We’ll cover resume refinement, outreach strategy, interview preparation, and the mindset shifts that distinguish top performers in on-cycle and off-cycle recruiting.
