Associate Intern
June - August 2019 • San Francisco, CA
What I liked
I liked the level of responsibility that we had as interns - we did the same work as the regular, full-time associates and therefore were treated the same.
What I wish was different
I wish that it had been a bit more interesting and engaging - at times, interns had to do call-downs or just had downtime because incoming projects were slow, so I wish there was an ongoing project to do inbetween or something to do when it got slow.
Advice
I enjoyed the internship, however, the work was quite redundant and it often was busy work without much thought to it.

Associate

What I liked
Real world experience speaking with C-level executives of private equity firms, hedge funds and Fortune 500 companies.

I decided that I would be more interested in corporate sales than private equity as I am driven by human interaction.
Advice
Whatever internship or experience you have, whether it’s the best fit for you or not, give it your 100% because you never know if it will be the greatest opportunity, network, or lesson you could ever receive.
