How do you figure out what investing you like?

Incoming 2025 EB analyst

Theoretically well-positioned for on-cycle given my background, but one problem:

I have no idea what type of investing I’m “passionate about” or which funds’ approaches I resonate with. How did you all figure this out?

Private Equity Mock Coffee Chat

“Jorge was very practical and generous with his time. He gave me a clear action plan: tighten my elevator pitch to under 2 min, do a weekly modelling case study, and prep technicals, market questions and behaviourals. His networking advice (always ask each contact for 1-2 more names, track fund closes to spot hiring windows, a list of London infra headhunters) was very actionable. He also referred me internally to Nuveen within a week. Only point to improve: I’m still waiting for his feedback on the case studies I sent.”
