My
group is currently looking to hire a business
student (preferably MBA) for a summer internship. I
dont really have a job description so to speak but
our two main business functions are:
-Business Valuations
-M&A advisory
The
intern would assist in both. They would do a lot of
financial modeling, assist in writing valuation
reports, possible some pitch presentations, it
really all depends on what type of projects we are
working on at the time.
I'm
not going to list off a bunch of things that he or
she should be able to do, but financial modeling in
excel is obviously a necessity.
The
position is guaranteed 20 hours a week but if the
workload permits and it should without a problem,
they can work 40. It is obviously a paid position.
The
internship has the possibility of turning into a
full-time position.
