    We've been getting a lot of questions about what we'll cover during our PE Bootcamp, so here's our agenda 📋 Over two Sundays (Sep 14 & 21), Jessica Holton (AD co-founder + former Morgan Stanley IB & Carlyle PE) will teach you everything you need to know about PE - how to recruit, how to nail the interview, and how to crush it when you get the job. Spots are still open - grab one before they're gone! https://lnkd.in/gQFn-i76

    Why PE? Ask someone whose job it is! Max Gantman is an AD alumni and a current investor at Altamont Capital Partners. "“Private equity is a fast-paced, collaborative, and intellectually stimulating field at the intersection of investing, strategic operations, and financial structuring. It offers an unparalleled opportunity to collaborate with top-tier talent to unlock value in businesses.” Want to break into PE and not sure where to start? Sign up for AD's 2-day PE bootcamp September 14 & 21. We still have a view early bird spots open - grab 'em before they're gone! https://lnkd.in/gQFn-i76

    We love a mental math question here at AD, so here's one for the PE Bootcamp: If you can get $2K+ of value by investing $499, to help you land a role that pays $300K+, why wouldn't you sign up immediately? ..... All jokes aside, we know we're offering an incredible deal, and we're doing it to make sure as many people as possible can join us, but it won't last long. Once our Early Bird spots are gone, prices go up to $799, which is still a good deal, but who doesn't want to save $300 if they can? #financeiscool #mathiscool Register for the PE bootcamp today: https://lnkd.in/gKwSSu5D
