Looking for 8-10 Venture Capital Fellows (undergraduates, MBAs, highschool, PHD, people early in their careers)
Remote, My 3 Months Free Nonprofit Program, 5 Hrs/ wk
To access: (app status: open)
👇 **Read below the 6 reasons why you should not get a career in Venture Capital👇
👇 **apply to this application👇
👇 * Follow Break Into VC Podcast page for updates👇
(You will not be contacted if you did not follow these 3 steps.)
I have interviewed 50 VCs personally including videos that are now published. https://lnkd.in/ejCpp2yX
They have all crafted unique 6 month plans from their previous role into Venture Capital, I use this data to tailor your unique path into VC
Please value both our time and Don't apply to this VC Fellowship if VC doesn't suit you.
1. No one is going to give you a schedule to follow
Results matter more than the process, no one is going to give you a set schedule, if you like having an extremely structured day, VC is not for you. There may be a few hours of required meetings a week in VC, but the rest of the schedule is up to you.
**during the fellowship, month 1 & 2 are learning what VC is specifically to know if you are suited for it & the art of networking, month 3 is Ai used in VC and more practice, we may give you tasks to help me out if you earned it
2. Zero dopamine
You invest and then wait years. You rarely know if you backed the right company, only that your VC partner agrees with you. True billion dollar exits often take more than eight years. Early exits in just a few years usually mean the startup was sold too soon for low returns. You won't get that dopamine hit.
3. People marathon
You’ll spend all your time in back-to-back meetings with founders, partners and LPs. It may be 70% of your time listening and 30% talking if you are an introvert. However, if you don’t love people, you’ll burn out.
4. No hands-on building
You fund other people’s visions for the greater good, you rarely build or ship products yourself. You are the advisor and the connector who makes many bets to change the world.
5. Relationship game, not number crunching
Early-stage investing is about building trust and selling your conviction, not detailed financial models. It’s high-level sales more than analysis. If you want to do later stage VC, IB & PE is the prerequisite.
6. Imposter syndrome
Everyone around you, ex-founders, consultants, Investment Bankers, seasoned operators, seems smarter. You’ll constantly wonder if you belong, your thirst for learning new things is the only thing that can set your apart
Qualifications:
Requirements: ***show that you have high initiative, adaptability & infinite learner in your unique way
Preferred: US , 1 person from each other country will be chosen
Preferred: Tech Founder background/ high depth of research specialist (bio or ai related)
