Do ppl use Robinhood for long term index investment? I just want to put some money in something like sp500 and leave it there. What’s a good option? Vanguard? Schwab? What’s the difference?

I am currently a year from finishing my PhD and was looking at VC's as a career path because I like to do meta-analysis of different climate change techs. I networked with VCs and one of them was receptive but didn't have the budget currently for a full time hire. They said they'd be interested in working with me to do a research paper over the coming semester, and was wondering if I could leverage this into a full time offer?

Is a white paper with a VC going to be attractive on my CV?
