MBA recruiting for summer intern positions peak between January and February. Candidates like myself sweat it out as investment banks and top consulting firms attract away the bulk of the MBA class. Candidates like myself want something different, something more.
I want to work in investing, not too different from the buy-side banker types. However, my style of investing is a bit different. I believe in the newest technology. Venture capital is one path that does that. That's why I accepted a summer position at Canaan Partners.
Fred Wilson, the best of NYC's venture capital scene, recently came to a private InSITE event to talk about the market and industry. More info on Fred's blog.
The following videos share the experience to those unable to attend.

That's it for now. More on tech, careers and other thoughts later.
Be well. Do good.
