Careers In Venture Capital
A word to the wise:
Most jobs with venture capital firms will never be advertised, on the Web or anywhere else. Your best job search strategy for this industry is to network with alumni.
- Remember that the competition for these jobs is intense. If you are having trouble securing a job, meet with an advisor at the BC Career Center.
