So I am a first year in university and I just had an interview with a VC firm for a summer internship program, and they asked me a question that I am struggling to get the answer to. What do you plan to gain from working at our firm and Why?

How about:
1) gain exposure to how deals are sourced, assessed and executed;
2) study market trends in the sectors that they specialise in;
3) observe the VC's deal teams in action and contribute as much as you can;
4) develop a mindset of a VC investor?
Good luck with your interview!
