Met a CIO of a VC firm for black beauty brands (like my own brand) who was interested in recruiting me as a venture associate - I would directly be working with her and a contracted finance team for due diligence comp analysis etc. after calling her she said they’d want to do a 90 day project before fully hiring me for the role. The thing is its also during the cycle of other jobs like MBB that I was also hoping to apply for. Should I take the 90 day paid project is that common practice in VC?

I'm 27 living in a LCOL at $135k. Haas/Darden/Tuck/Ross FT MBA at full price vs a pre-sales role at a non-FAANG big tech company paying around $160k-$200k TC.
