“How do I put these dirty plebs in their place?No shade intended, tehe”
If I were trying to do that, I’d either just ignore them or say something insensitive. I’m legit trying to help lol
Came from a working class background with HH income <$50k

Tell them what experience is desired. “We typically hire people with x experience from a place like ____. It’s possible to get in without that specific experience, but the odds aren’t in your favor.”
I mean you could just go with honesty
"Look, these places are classist AF, so if you don't look like you already at least know ppl who have money, it's going to be a struggle. At the very least join a couple clubs the partners would have heard of"
That’s probably the best approach; thanks!
“Our hires typically have a profile of... went to this school, had these previous experiences, etc.”. Depending on how well you know then you can be more honest but if it’s randos reaching out then either ignore or use something canned.
It’s randos that went to my non target undergrad; want to help but I’m too junior to really make any real hiring decisions
So you went to a non-target into pwc audit and then have a little time in big 4 transaction before you touched a little bit of strategy work?
Maybe they are reaching out to you since you don't seem to have a very strong brand and made it into VC.
How did you break in?
First recruited at PwC as an audit intern (which was regarded as a top option coming from a school like mine lol), then switched over to advisory. Was a top performer and was recommended to move to S&. Was still not easy to break in from S&, but somehow managed through a very targeted recruiting strategy and months of prep.
I’ve won numerous national academic competitions and have pretty exceptional quant skills.
