Long story short about Career in Venture Capital Here's What You Need to Know: THE GOOD: ? You'll help and work with tomorrow's tech leaders ? Front-row seat to cutting-edge innovation ? Significant financial upside through carried interest ? Compensation Guide: ? Entry Level: ?18 lacs to ?40 lacs (based on fund size) ? Partner Level: ? X Cr+ (plus carried interest) THE REAL TALK: ? 50-60+ hour weeks are standard ? Success metrics can take 7-10 years to materialize ? Competition is fierce, for jobs and for top deals ? Advancement within firms is challenging KEY SKILLS THAT MATTER: - Investment experience (not for entry-level though) - Strong deal-sourcing abilities - Financial modeling / assessment (for Series A+) - Natural curiosity about technology - Excellence in communication / rapport building - Hustle - its a fairly self-driven industry If you're passionate about startups, technology, and like businesses, VC might be your calling. But remember: it's a marathon, not a sprint. Any aspects of VC careers I should elaborate on? #VentureCapital #Careers #Analyst
