Private Equity sales representative responsibilities and compensation at boutique investment bank?

Hi Guys,

I just got an interview for the position of Private Equity sales representative with a boutique investment bank this week. Their main focus is in PIPE and M&A.

Does anyone know what kind of responsibilities a private equity sales representative will take in smaller teams like this? In the job description, they stated marketing their financial offers to accredited investors and having working knowledge of healthcare industry and valuation methodologies.

Is their compensation largely dependent on commission/equity reward? I have never done a "sales" type of work...

I'm quite new to this and I have a PhD in Biological Engineering and some entrepreneur experience in healthcare sector.

I'll really appreciate if anyone can provide some insight!

Thanks.

Investment Banking Mock Interview

“Very patient in explanation and was very good at walking me through some of the concepts without giving anything away. Great job breaking up the material and asking questions outside of the 400 guide which really tested my knowledge on some of the more basic concepts I thought I had a good understanding of, but might need to learn a little more. Will continue to schedule Consatantin as I thought the overall ease of the scheduling was nice, and he was more that available to go over the origonal time we had planned out.”

Investment Banking 7 Stories Review

“Michael was a huge help getting me ready for my Lazard HireVue. I came in with a lot of good material but my answers were running long and I kept rambling through my stories. He walked me through each one and helped me cut them down so they were concise and hit the main points without losing what makes them mine. He was honest about what was not working and gave me clear ways to fix it instead of just general advice. I left the call feeling way more confident and organized going into the interview. I would definitely work with him again.”
