5.0 out of 5 stars
Well written guide for anyone interested in a career in VC,
By Single Helix "Biotech executive" (Pacific Northwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Careers in Biotech & Pharmaceuticals: The WetFeet Insider Guide (2005 Edition) (Paperback)
This is a well-researched and written guide for anyone interested in a VC career. It is primarily targeted at MBAs exploring their options after business school and puts a career in VC in context with the typical MBA alternatives - investment banking and management consulting. Even though as a mid-career executive I am not within that target group, I found this a compelling reading with helpful tips on how to get one of those elusive entry level VC positions through networking and aggressive self-marketing. I ordered this book directly from wetfeet.com and I was charged a whopping $15 for surface delivery.
