Blackstone Private Equity Summer Analyst

Hi, the internship description says you should know how to do financial modeling. I'm currently applying to internships but will still learn how to model. Does anyone know the best way to learn it? Also, how deep should my knowledge and capability to model financially be?

Intern in IB - Gen:

I mean you should be able to describe how to model even if you don't actually know the mechanics of it. No interns ever touch the model anyways


Incorrect. BX has interns take first pass at the model for anything that’s not a fire drill live deal
