Opportunity
Overton is hiring a remote, part time MBA fall semester intern to begin in late summer or early fall. This is an invaluable opportunity to gain exposure to key areas of venture capital including sourcing, investment analysis, partner meetings, deal execution, and portfolio support.
Candidates should have a strong interest in learning about the venture capital industry and a passion for entrepreneurship and working with early-stage companies. This is a small team where interns will have the opportunity to own workflows and have an outsized impact. This is an unpaid internship; however, a stipend will be awarded upon completion of the internship. Intern should plan to commit to a minimum of 15 hours/week. We also welcome applicants who are available to start before the academic school year, a great opportunity if your summer internship ends early and you are seeking venture experience before the school year.
Responsibilities
• The associate intern will screen, analyze and help execute investments in the portfolio
• Perform industry/sector and company analysis, and company due diligence
• Conduct valuation analyses and company forecasting
• Meet with management teams, industry experts and internal advisers to help source new ideas
• Advise startups on product development cycle, revenue models, customer acquisition strategy and marketing tactics
About You
• Prior relevant experience is a requirement, and prior venture capital experience (at a firm or venture-backed start-up) is a plus. Experience level of 3+ years preferred.
• Experience in financial modeling and data analytics tools
• Strong attention to detail (you edit everything twice)
• Strong quantitative and analytical skills and expertise in Excel
• Strong presentation skills and proficiency in PowerPoint
• Self-starter with strong organizational skills and the ability to multitask
• Demonstrated interest in startups and technology
• Motivated, hardworking team player who is able to work autonomously
