Week 1: Intro to MiddleGround; HR team kicks off onboarding, private equity overview, MiddleGround culture, meet individuals, understand value creation methodology, learn about the MGC portfolio companies, etc.
Week 2-4: Interns go through Wall Street Prep “Private Equity Masterclass” and work through internal training materials over a 4-week “training” period.
Weeks 5-8: Final three weeks of the internship are spent on a case study / investment project that is designed to be an investment recommendation presented to Investment Committee. Each individualgets an example CIM and pulls together a mini LOI model and investment memo to present to small portion of investment team. Interns will get 15-30-minute slots to present their investment recommendation to a small group of Investment Team members & MGC Partners on their last day of work.
Our goal is to help prep students for their future career paths into Investment Banking and Private Equity by giving them "real life" experince. These students will have the opportunity to pull together their own IC memo and present to a group of PE professionals within MGC. Our hope is to help young people land jobs/internships with established investment banks, complete IB analyst programs and eventually move into the private equity industry.
