The private equity associate role has similar skillsets to an investment banking associate or an associate consultant at a top strategy consulting firm. Private equity associates typically command superior compensation, and are strongly positioned for entry into top-tier MBA programs, as well as significant career optionality and upward mobility.

Eligibility

Candidates for this internship program should have a strong interest in and ambition to enter the top ranks of the financial services industry. Service members who have attained, or are planning to attain, a Masters in Business Administration (MBA) or other business-focused graduate degree will find this internship most useful.
