Imo you don’t need to do either of those if you want to be an entrepreneur. You just need to start. The overlap between entrepreneurship and FDD/GTM is so minimal that it’s a waste of time.

True, but I can only get so far by myself. I’ll need a network if I want to scale the business and also I know there’s ppl smarter than me in finance and FDD, so I’m trying to learn from them.

FDD gets you much closer to entrepreneurs and gives you a better big picture view of how relatively early stage companies operate.

Hello Sharks!!
I'm looking for career opportunities in early stage VCs/Privare equity firms. I'm a qualified CA and CFA L2 candidate, I'm currently working as a transaction valuations professional associated with one of the big 4.

Joining a big 4 soon. Just completed 2 years with a boutique strategy firm. One of the clauses which I missed during my offer was a Non Compete Clause for 2 years.

'Employee will not without the written consent of the firm, engage in any business which competes with the business of the company.'

Now since it's boutique, it can enter any space practically. How do I handle this ?

Looking to leave my current role, in industry (engineering/manufacturing) and to get back into big 4 (same firm as well), however I have a 3 month holiday planned from December next year.

Are big 4 pretty lenient on allowing holidays of that length? Especially for boomerangs? Or is it better to come back after the holiday and try then? Thinking that contracting temporarily might be the way to go in the interim.
