My Mentor Is in private Equity and I recently decided that I will finally reach out to him and come up with a plan to join his firm. This video put so much into perspective

[aishwaryapotdar]

Sounds like a TON of intense work. I can understand why PE demands an IBD background, thanks a lot!

[JayNarayanan]

Fabuluous video, Ben!
Would be really great if you could cover the recruiting process for hedge funds. Cover aspects like applying for funds, hedge fund modelling, interview process, etc. Thanks, Ben.

[adamlee]

Hey Ben! Great video. Can you do a similar video but about working at a Hedge fund?

[inspired_by_happy_living]

Thank you for the video. Please consider making career guides for management consulting, investment banking and private equity, so that it helps with interview preparation and career advancement. Thank you.

[benlisi]

Hey Ben, Can you do a video on hedge funds like how to break in. Recruiting processes, compensation structure etc. that’s my end goal but it’s hard to find clear information on it.

[yvankonan]

Hi Ben,

Can you talk about the good, bad, and ugly of management consulting?

Great video as usual!

[davidc]

I have a degree in mathematics and finance (3.9) from Ivy and Masters in real estate finance. Previous asset management experience . Can I get into private equity? What is best real estate private equity?

[yogeshbhagat]

Hi ben , how much carry someone get in a billion dollar pe fund 🤔🤔 ???? I've hear this many times CARRY is biggest compensation component in buy side

[David-bxru]

Hi Ben, I'm currently in Corp Dev at a ~40B company. Can I leverage that to break into PE or I have to do a MBA first. Thank you!

[kriterium]

what are the chances to make a move from big law (K&E type of firms) into PE?

[vaishnavsv]

Hi Ben!
I am actually planning to do my masters next year from HEC paris which is one of the best schools in the world
Then onwards I was thinking of joining investment banking and then joining private equity.
But can u plz help me in understanding how to directly join private equity instead of joining investment banking right after completion of my masters!
Your reply and suggestion would help me a lot!

[simba]

will taking a course inPE help me in personal investments? I am in tech, but would like to have some business experience as it looks interesting but no interest in pursuing business career

[nikos]

Hey great video. I will start my studies this semester in Industrial Engineering and Management in a very good German university (KIT Karlsruhe) do i have a chance with an appropriate master degree to break in investment banking and private equity?

[agent]

Pro: You get PAID!!!
Con: You destroy businesses to milk them of their revenue

Haven't seen the video but I feel like I got it right. Did I?

[barryaherne]

Having left your job in banking, did you find the golden handcuffs hard to reconcile with? Leveraging a lot of financial security and lifestyle creep against one's happiness must be a difficult one. Are there a lot of unhappy people in this sector or are most people cool with the whole thing?

[cjmor]

Is it more worth to get into BIG TECH and make the same money without having to spend hundreds of thousands on an MBA to get into PE

[ExcelNinja]

hey ben, can you talk about buy-side equity research & L/S HF style.
do you know anyone who got into hf out of UG like point72 analyst Acadamy, i will apply probably next year so good to know.
thanks man.😀

Ok but how does one get a date with Ben
