PE Club
Hey everyone,
I’m looking to start a private equity club on my campus and wanted to hear your thoughts on how this might be looked at when recruiting for banking. Will recruiters take notice of my interest in PE and be less inclined to take me bc they think I’ll be more likely to try and go to the buyside? If so, should I abandon the idea or is there a way to spin the club into a positive? Or will they be impressed by the leadership position and initiative and such? For context I’m already in the IB and general finance/business club at my school. Thanks for any help you can provide!
neither, they'll just think you're a hardo
What else do you do (non-finance related)?
Applying for some policy clubs (international affairs), club basketball, religious orgs
Then you'll be fine. If you can do well with the IB and the general finance/business club (meaning get high leadership), you'll showcase that you're committed. If you can also do well in other clubs and basketball and religious stuff, you can show that you're a real person and not a machine/robot. The club can be helpful tho, but it all depends on how much time you put into it, what sort of effect it will have on your GPA, and other factors.
None of this is as important as networking, especially coming from OSU (a nontarget, but one with a decent alumni network to reach out to).
@IBD24 - hit me up if you are serious. I can help outline a club that adds value to students + skillset to add to resume / discuss in interviews. Would love to get involved at schools - to teach topics - but going forward, each school needs a Loan Boy Jr. (where long term, the student becomes the teacher)
