Growth Equity / Venture Capital Case Study
Hi everyone,
Aware there have been a couple of posts on Private Equity Case Studies, which largely involve LBO modeling.
However, I have an interview coming up with a venture capital / very early stage growth equity firm coming up and know there will be a case study that will be a bit different.
All I know is that it will be two hours of prep time and an hour of discussion, and that there will be a little bit of technical testing, but really the focus will be on other issues. Definitely no LBO (they don't use debt).
I've seen a couple of high level posts with key "points" to hit (basically Porter's 5 forces / industry trends / management team) but would be great to understand what makes a good / bad answer or even see some examples. Doing the former and a SWOT analysis seems a bit basic.
Does anyone have any experience with these sorts of case studies / good suggestions of resources?
Thanks in advance!
I believe the case may involve making an investment recommendation based on a company the firm may have previously evaluated or invested in - you may need to have a strong understanding of the submarket/market and be able able to exemplify that in the Q&A session - what else do you know about the case interview?
read Brad Feld's Venture Deals cover to cover to prep for the interview
Great book in general, but def useful for VC / GE prep.
