Now I just need to figure out how a director with a tax background can have transferable skills to something else...

I'm a product manager at a small start-up with ~3 years professional experience. Been offered a VC internship, or a PM role at a post series B startup.

Best month to find an apartment? Currently a nomad working abroad so want to strategically time my move back to NYC. Lived here for 5 years but always stuck in the summer rental cycle

A new analyst has joined our team and we often give them models/ slides but don’t always ask them if they know all of the accounting principles to be able to make minute adjustments to EBITDA or free cash flow. We are a FIG platform, so the knowledge required is relatively unique as well and not as easy to google as corporate transactions. Is there a better way to coach the analyst short of just throwing them in the deep end to figure it out or should we wait for them to ask us for help?
