Private equity intern bullet points
Could anyone review my resume bullet points on my time as an Intern in a PE firm any comment would be appreciated
. o Assisted analysts in analysing over 200 potential acquisition targets in various sectors in the Healthcare Industry by researching their earnings, investors, leadership and operations.
o Performed industry research as part of the initial due diligence for acquisitions.
o Wrote over 50 pages of reports and created excel sheets on various industries and topics.
o Evaluated prospective deals through DCF modelling.
First point: Remove "Assisted analysts" and just put "Analyzed". Also, what was the outcome? Were any of them acquired? any of them under LOI? Did your work contribute in a meaningful way, at all? If so, lead with that. for example, "Sourced acquisition by analyzing 200+..." is much better than just saying what you did. Remember, IMPACT, and then how you did it.
Second point: Similar to the above point, what was the outcome? Lead with that.
Third point: Similar, I'm less impressed about your output and more impressed with an outcome. What did this modeling do? Did it allow you to get through deals faster? Did it improve the pipeline eficiency? Did the reports lead to an acquisition? Just because you made reports doesn't mean much to me: I need to see what happened because of that.
Same comments for the 4th bullet point.
Here are some sample bullet points from my resume, so that you can model off of them:
- Found and verified initiatives to achieve additional ~$350M of EBITDA growth over 1 year’s sales cycle
- Created recommendation to generate $200M in revenue by offering logistics as a service to other retail companies
- Co-led local unit of ~200 church members, directing weekly services and conducting majority of membership meetings
- Helped place 10+ students into Management Consulting, Banking, PE/VC, and a variety of high-growth startups
These aren't perfect, and I'm sure that there would be more comments from others, but I hope you can see how they speak to the IMPACT that I had, and less about the actual THING that I did. Impact>>>>>Output.
