How do i enter in VC at an analyst position (pre-MBA). I have been working in a consulting firm (focused on healthcare. Not MBB) in India for the last 2 years and have applied on the career portals/cold emailed multiple VC firms. I havent received any response till date and was wondering what would be the right way to go about this since its a very small network in India . Any lead or guidance is appreciated.
Thanks.

Usually headhunters would approach you if your LinkedIn is updated and your profile matches the firm’s criteria.

I’d recommend reaching out to them over mail or connecting with them on LinkedIn if they are not reaching out to you.

Thanks for your reply. Do you happen to know the names of any of these headhunters ?

I’ve seen headhunters from Michael Page posting a lot about opportunities in the space.

Hi guys, After CAF completion by last week, yesterday I received a call from the HR for the second round of evaluation. So, I attended it yesterday and performed well by answering 90-95% of the questions. Even the interviewer gave good comments on my performance. But suddenly today I received an email that my candidature isn't suitable for the role and they're keeping my profile in the database. Does this mean they'll call me if there are openings with some other project?
