Venture Associate Interview Questions

The final presentation they made me give was honestly the hardest part, primarily because it was a huge time suck. The project was to design a 6-week long accelerator program, which entailed developing a thorough outline, a detailed lesson plan for each day (30 total sessions), and project management plan. It took me around 3-4 days of moderate work to do it. It was fairly apparent that they are trying to exploit the interview process in order to get new work. They gave me $50 but for the amount of work they were expecting, that's not much. Still good practice, but I really hope they switch to a more traditional consulting case interview format. Or at the very least, make the presentation / project shorter.
