Message: Hi! I am recently offered a summer internship at a small, fairly new private equity investment firm. If I take the offer, it will mean a career change for me as my prior experiences are all in the marketing area. I wonder if I should give this a shot, considering that I also have another marketing internship offer from a more established high-tech company. What qualities are needed to succeed in the VC industry? What's the outlook for the industry? And what other factors should I consider? THanks!
