Venture capital funds (succeed in interviews)

Hi there,

After my first post on WallstreetOasis, I started to have interviews in different VC, I had in total interviews with 7 VC funds but still did not get any offers...

With some funds, I had in total 6/7 interviews....

Need advices and especially what should I do next to eventually get into a tiers 1/2 VC? (M&A, MBB consulting?) cause all my interviews seems to be extremely unsuccessful..

Quick background of myself, tiers 1 double master degrees from target school (engineering & entrepreneurship), VC internship + engineering internships, 3 years founders experiences (run 2 startups) while at school (a big failure as I was young and naive, thinking that entrepreneurship is easy, it is really hard), 1 year and half in industry (rotational program), now want to back into VC ecosystem.

Thanks, Miu-miu
