Investment Banking and Private Equity Tutor, Resume, Interview Prep

Jonah N.

I hold a BBA from the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business, where I graduated summa cum laude in 2021, and I am currently an MBA student at Harvard Business School. I began my career as an investment banking analyst in Citigroup's Media and Telecommunications group from 2021 to 2023, then spent about three years as a private equity associate at Veritas Capital, focused on healthcare technology and government-facing businesses.

At both firms I was actively involved in recruiting and interviewing candidates, which is the core of my qualification to tutor. I have sat on the other side of the table for first-round and final-round interviews for analyst and associate roles, so I know what interviewers listen for, which answers stand out, and which mistakes end an otherwise strong candidacy. I have not worked as a formal classroom instructor. My experience is one-on-one evaluation and feedback with college students and early-career professionals.

I plan to tutor two groups: college students trying to break into investment banking, and professionals in banking, consulting, or other fields trying to move into private equity. My approach centers on mock interviews followed by direct, specific feedback. For banking candidates, I focus on accounting fundamentals, valuation, and clear answers on fit and motivation. For private equity candidates, I focus on deal evaluation, LBO modeling, and case-style investment discussions, along with how to frame a prior background as relevant. Sessions are one-on-one and tailored to each person's gaps and timeline.
