Felicity Capital is a small, unorthodox private equity firm with a simple mission: find one great business, buy it, and run it. We're not a fund with a portfolio of logos to put on your resume. We're one person with a thesis, financing, and a very full pipeline.
I'm looking for 1-2 interns to help manage a high-volume, multi-stage deal funnel: sourcing, screening, broker communications, light due diligence coordination, and whatever else needs doing on any given day. You will be exposed to live deals, real conversations with brokers, accountants, and attorneys, and the full mess of actually trying to buy a company.
What this job is not:
This is not a modeling exercise. You will not be building DCFs in a windowless conference room. If you want to tell people you "worked in private equity," this will technically be true, but it won't look or feel the way you're imagining.
The reality:
This is an unpaid internship. We are mostly operating remotely. The dress code is non-existent. The hours are flexible but the expectations are not.
What I'm looking for:
Someone hungry, resourceful, and comfortable with ambiguity. You don't need a finance background. You do need to be organized, fast on email, and unbothered by the fact that nobody has heard of us. If you're the kind of person browsing Craigslist for jobs instead of waiting for your campus career center to hand you one, you're probably the right fit.
What you get:
In exchange for good work, I will provide strong letters of recommendation and personal introductions to contacts in the finance industry. I'll also help with recruiting prep, interview practice, and grad school applications if that's your path. These aren't throwaway promises. I take this seriously because your work matters to me.
To apply:
Send me an application with a few sentences about who you are and why this sounds interesting. No cover letter template, please. If you attach a cover letter that starts with "Dear Hiring Manager," I will assume you didn't read this far.
Principals only. Recruiters, please don't contact this job poster.
