Series 5: “Quantum Leap”

Resources & Tips to Break into VC

It’s August so you know what that means — it’s Rerun Season. Here on The Importance of Reading Earnest, we wanted to share a few topics that we have covered over these first nine months.

In this edition, I wanted to share resources and lessons that I have come across during the VC job search journey. The VC industry isn’t very transparent and securing a role isn’t straight forward. The following posts are essentially what I wish were around when I started looking for a role in the venture space.

Remember you can always discover something new during a rerun. #readingEarnest — ES.
