"What are your kids birthdays?"
lol any actual advice?
Hate to break it to you, but there aren't any 10/10 questions that will always work and always impress.
You need to actually put in the work and tailor your questions to them/their firm. Stop trying to cut corners.
literally just asking for advice, chillax.
I already researched the firm a shit ton, and so has everyone else. I don't know many PE MD's personally, so I was asking what they look for.
…they’re looking for thoughtful candidates who have an interest in a long term career in PE. I always thought this was supposed to be the easiest interview. Are you interested in the partner track? Wouldn’t you want advice? Like you have the most knowledgeable guys in the room about that firm’s investment strategy and you can’t think of any good questions to ask an insider as an aspiring investor?
"how much money do you make?"
fr I might
For ones that have been at the firm for 3 yrs + & that have been promoted: I see you’ve been at abc company for x years, what do you attribute that to and how has x firm fostered your long term development?
thats a good one, appreciate it!
