Private Equity Compliance Professionals

While in high school, participate in business and finance clubs. Some colleges have private equity, venture capital, or general finance clubs that you can join. Check out Web sites such as PE HUB (https://www.pehub.com) and Private Equity International (https://www.privateequityinternational.com) to learn more about the private equity industry. Talk to compliance professionals about their careers. Use LinkedIn to identify interview candidates. Joining LinkedIn groups—such as the Hedge Fund, Private Equity & Alternative Investments Networking Group and the Private Equity Investment Group—is another good strategy to educate yourself about the industry and make networking contacts.
