Lead Edge Capital - Growth Equity

Hey Monkeys, just a young undergraduate trying to look at potential Growth Equity firms to target for recruiting.


Does anyone know anything about Lead Edge Capital? I attend a target school and have seen their website recently and found their GPs to be interesting. Any information on career progression, exits, pay and anything else for this particular firm.

 

App was posted on handshake for my school. I applied cold and didn’t make it pass the resume screen, and was pretty surprised honestly lol. Currently interning at an EB + had tech experience so not sure what they’re looking for unless u network to get into the process

 

Had a first round there last week for SA, didn't make it through to the next round.

My interviewer said there are around 3 rounds, with the final one being a mock "sourcing call" where a team member basically roleplays as a founder and you gotta do your thing.

Interviewer was great and I really enjoyed the conversation, but it felt like they were looking for a specific personality for the sourcing intern role.

 

Is there a case study? I know there’s one for FT. Were there any technicals? 

 

Nope mine was very chill and conversational, walking through resume, talk about a portfolio company that was interesting, what are investing red flags, what would you ask a founder on a sourcing call, etc.

 

Iste est ea magnam. Ea aut suscipit tenetur nihil nisi.

Est omnis ipsum velit amet. Est neque nemo maiores sunt. Provident eum ratione aspernatur unde et soluta rerum.
