Equal Ventures Hiring MBA Research Interns
Equal Ventures Hiring MBA Research Interns
**We are no longer accepting applications for this role**
We’re kicking off our Fall 2021 MBA intern recruiting process and this year, we’re looking to bring on a few team members to support research efforts within our core sectors of Care Economies, Climate / Energy, Insurance, Retail, and Supply Chain / Logistics. Our research interns will focus on one specific vertical of their choice throughout the program, rather than focusing across all of Equal’s key sectors. They will work with our investment team to research specific industry themes and analyze market opportunities in support of our thesis-driven approach. See more about our core sectors here.
About The Role:
This role will be specifically focused on building out investment themes and a research database for Equal, rather than a focus on sourcing or investing. What a candidate will get out of this experience will be:
Leading thesis-development at the earliest stages of venture capital
Analyzing legacy industries and identifying potentially disruptive business models
Cultivating a network of industry leaders
Ground-level view at a high-growth VC fund
Our internship program will run for the fall semester (with the possibility to extend) and will be remote. All internships include a stipend.
Ideal Candidate:
Experience with market research & analysis
Previous experience in market research is preferred (such as a role in consulting, banking, or investing)
Intellectually curious — insatiable thirst for knowledge on how / why things work
Professional — takes immense pride in the detail, thoroughness, accuracy and overall quality of their work and capable of engaging and developing relationships with industry leaders, founders and other investors in accordance with the Equal brand
Self-directed — works with team members to complete tasks without someone looking over their shoulder
Friendly — we like nice people, no egos
