Break Into VC - Getting the Tier 1 Offer
I broke into venture capital when recruiters told me I couldn’t. I made a complete pivot from investor relations into investing — without a traditional on-paper profile — and landed roles at both a top growth-stage fund in Europe and a leading early-stage firm in New York. There’s a strategy to breaking into VC that goes far beyond resume buzzwords or cold emails. It’s about positioning, pattern-matching, and communicating exactly the kind of investor you’ll be — clearly and compellingly. Most candidates approach the process passively. I’ll help you play offense. Whether you're pre-MBA, pivoting from finance or ops, or trying to stand out in a sea of similar profiles, I know how to help you shape your story, ace interviews, and get the offer. This is a relationship-driven industry — and I’ll coach you like someone who’s navigated it firsthand, not just watched from the sidelines.
