What we look for in Candidates
Interest In QPCG
We want to hear why you are interested in joining QPCG. How can we help you grow and achieve your professional, educational, or personal goals?
Critical Thinking
How do you analyze and assess new information or points of view? Our clients expect us to form an investment opinion or recommendation.
Soft Skills and Teamwork
Most work on QPCG is done through teams. Do you have past leadership or collaboration experience that you can speak to?
Willingness to Learn
We don’t expect you to have any background in finance or consulting when applying, and seek to hire eager learners who want to learn about these areas
Frequently Asked Questions
Not a problem at all! We highly recommend that all individuals apply regardless of whether they have formal knowledge of finance or the financial markets. Our internship program has an extensive education component designed to develop your understanding of finance and the private markets. We instead look for candidates who show a willingness to learn and who are motivated and driven.
Interviews are an opportunity to us to get to know you (and for you to know us). We highly recommend doing practice interviews with your friends, family, or whomever else you trust to give honest feedback. The more you practice, the less daunting an interview process can look. A few sample questions that we might ask:
- Tell us about yourself
- Why are you interested in this opportunity
- Can you tell us about a time when you had to work in a challenging group environment?
- Can you tell us about a recent world event that you’ve been following?
Our insights page contains plenty of past deal discussions and market updates to help you understand more about these concepts. Here are a few other helpful resources below:
- An overview of private equity by Investopedia
- A special report on the private markets from The Economist
