Depends what level. Junior members ~3 years as sometimes there isn’t the opportunity to progress in smaller VCs. Partners would be expected to stay for 2-3 funds

From what we see as an LP the majority of VC firms have a natural churn at that junior level because there isn’t the opportunity to progress. But there is always someone who has come in and worked up the ranks. Lastly a lot of funds bring in future partners as a principal or venture partner before promoting them.

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.

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?
