Advise on joining VCs

Unsure on how should I go about it? Any advise for me? I have a 3.5 y experience in Product & Growth

Hi, VC is a selective industry, so without knowing your bg my advice will be a bit generic

But the way to go about it is:

  1. Be well versed about early stage, make sure you read enough about startups and specifically stuff happening at an early stage, have opinion on sectors and models
  2. You can reach out by cold emailing VPs at funds, it works if your profile meets the bar
  3. Do apply to enough of them to increase chances

I’ve seen folks from product roles break in Happy to guide further

Hey! Thanks for your response.. any chance we can connect elsewhere? I'd be grateful if I could discuss my profile with you and get some feedback.
