Describing PE Internship on CV

Hey guys,

Completed a summer internship at a MM LBO PE shop.

It would be great to hear your advice on what kind of things I should include in my CV describing this internship?

It was a very small shop and I worked across all aspects from origination right through to portfolio company management.

Some of the main points I was thinking of including were:

- board observer for portfolio company

- completed DD

- prepared market and models for prospective investments

Would really appreciate any insight!
