Anyone ever start their own PE firm/fund? Not search, but maybe with a specific investment thesis? Particularly interested in journeys from entrepreneurs who parlayed their exit.

I did this as an entrepreneur. Exited a startup I founded then formed a PE firm but more Independent Sponsor model. It's not search but it's also not a pure play fund. Happy to share my experience.

Thanks! Sent you a PM

I’m interested as well. I’m an M&A attorney at a big law firm (not in with an investment firm right now). Want to pivot to confounding or joining a newly created PE firm. Seeking opportunities/partners/strategies. I used to own a business prior to law school that raised private equity (prior to law school) so I have some experience on that side too. Would love to connect and chat!!

Hi everyone!

I've been offered a job at

What kind of work culture, work load and tech stack exposure should I be expecting?
I'm having 1 year experience.

I've also got offers from IndiaMART InterMESH Limited, Amdocs, Verizon and Collegedunia.

All for the role of front-end web developer.

I'm very confused between all of them.

Does anyone have a tool/ site that calculates what the offer would need to be to leave a current role, all things considered? Of course, it’s anything more than you’re making now, but I’m looking for something that accounts for LTE, the hassle, risk, etc.
