Im also a PE analyst and this video made me realize our lives fucking suck.
Yea not being born rich is a skill issue tbh
it's okay that Harvard / Yale / NYU degree was worth it right??? HAHHAHA
Its every job not just banking
This is so interesting! I wish I had videos like this available when I was in high school and college, there’s so many jobs out there that most people don’t know about.
Wow! This was the most candid "day in the life" video I've seen. Thank you!
Secondly, I just wanted to say I hope you're doing well.
I'm hoping you've found a better work-life balance.
What you're doing is not sustainable in the long run (you need more sleep!)
Best,
- Advice from a random stranger from the internet :)
Great video, Nikita! I found the private equity deal process overview 3:49 very useful. I’m also glad that your channel is getting more exposure. You totally deserve it.
Thank you appreciate the encouragement 🤗
Great videos! Would be great if you can make a video on the pros and cons of the PE analyst program right out of college vs. doing a banking stint first. think that would be really helpful for college students
6:36 Would definitely like a more in-depth breakdown of the deal process. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing. Useful for people to get an insight into the PE world
What a nice surprise! I was recommended your channel today and then there is a new upload too! :)
glad you're enjoying the videos
Great video. Please make detailed videos of PE deal process and any other stuff of what all you learn about finance and businesses. Good bye 🌞
And maybe also an expenses video to see how much you spend in a month as a PE analyst and the COL in NYC for someone working in finance
Hey! I can’t believe your video just popped up in my feed! Great to see you vlogging and starting your channel!
wow thank you nikita for the process overview ❤❤❤❤
Great video! Thanks so much for all the insight into a day in the life of a position I'm trying to break into, it's extremely helpful. Do you have any advice on how to continue to be motivated on rough days?
for me it's knowing your "why" and your short and long term goals, otherwise it's very easy to feel drained and lost working in this industry. also just celebrating the fact that you're learning and growing every day.
@@nikitatangI'd be curious to know what your "why" is if you could share some insight on it since you are clearly a motivated overachiever
All I said was "thanks everyone… bye" gave me a good laugh. 😂
Me too I cracked up 😂😂
i envy you so much and thank you for sharing your day. I also want to get into private credit (or equity) field soonest
As an European with a 37-hours work week I would never want such a life for myself... Remember that you work to live, not live for your work.
Very nice info vid. Couldn't help but notice you scored a living space in Manhattan. That is like winning the lottery if you're not paying an arm and two legs!.
How nice it must be to having biking as an alternative commute! =)
Also very nice your office provides catered breakfast- a nice incentive to get in early.
Nice Vlog! Thanks for explaining the high level deal process ☺️ it is informative.
I found this very helpful as an econ student.
Great video! thank you for these insights! It was very interesting for me in my business studies
Lmao “risked my life subway” had me. Welcome to nyc
Great video!! & looking forward to the next ones!!
i feel that between step 2 and 3 there's the 2nd round phase which allows way more access to the VDR without having to sign an IOI but also is way more DD than step 2
I'm not trying to be rude but this strikes me as sad. You spend most of your life at work and your coworkers clearly don't value your time since they keep dumping more projects on you than is necessary. I hope that you can save enough money to quit soon and find a job that doesn't suck the life out of you
Sleep at 12:30 then wake up at 7:30 again tmr, the only entertainment was the workout, not the life for me...
Thank you for this amazing video! I'm thinking about a career in PE and wanted to know what you find to be most fulfilling or enjoyable about your work (building models and memos)?
I like how fast paced this industry is and how you're challenged and learning something new every day. What's most fulfilling is prob having the opportunity to look at difference businesses and interact with the management team of those businesses.
Awesome vid Nikita - please keep making more :)
thank you for the support!
Hey Nikita just found your channel...your content is amazing❤... love to know more about PE and investment banking so if you can make a detailed video about it.. please do it... it'd be really helpful...thanks❤
Great vid! interested to see a future walkthrough on you building a "model" from 2:12. swe here who only knows how to do a basic DCF 🙃
I’ll think about doing one
Better and better, good length and rhythm.👍
😃
I'd also like to know more about deal structure, will ne helpful to my series B financing
wait so you go 9-5work 5-5:30 boba break 5:30-7 work 7-8 gym 8-11 work? is that how the day went, 14hrs of work?
I did not find the easter eggs. But your voice is so calming. And Nikita is such a pretty name. Not common these days at all.
And I can't believe in private equity you have to work till 11pm.
Studying for the CFA was more of an individual adventure so that adds a couple hours to the end/beginning of my day
Love ur work nikky
Me as a data analyst closing my pc at 5pm sharp. I could not do a routine like this one.
First time watching your video and I really like how u narrate your vlog
Pretty interesting i studied economics at LSE... Curious about this lol
i like your aesthetic!
I love your videos!!:D
What newsletters do you read as an Investment Banker?
Honestly, if this is your typical day then it is very sad to watch.... You are spending all of your day (7:30am-11:30pm) at the office and corporate convinced you that you need to be thankful for this... You are thankful for them paying for your dinner... How about eating a nice and healthy meal at home and enjoy some time with your family and friend. Weak up! You are their slave.
Right she is their slave but she is definitely making north of $200K USD salary.
Fuck off from this video and go work for a 9-5 job then you weakling. Calling someone who's prob making 5x of your income as a slave and acting like she doesn't know any better is the next level of ignorance
@@yvalam4400so many careers where you can do that tho. A good 60% of the people at the tech company I work at make $200k and work remote like 4 hours a day
You don’t get it. After 10 years of work, you make roughly 3M.
At this time you are around 33 years old. You should be director and earn around 600k per year.
If you are smart, you could quickly stop working and invest all that money to live comfortably for the rest of your life.
When she is done working you’ll have to work for another 30 years.
This is typical East Asian life style . Ppl here are dreaming about this kind of life . Until I watched this I feel ew 😢😢😢😢 I don’t want it
sorry - how and why would HR tell you to dress to impress for a client? that's outside of their department responsibilities, wouldn't your manager tell you that instead?
Is this a typical day or do you usually get home before 11:00pm?
Great video! Which firm do you work for? And were you an international student?
I work in financial due diligence profile with a Big 4, just wanted to understand does our fdd findings are really incorporated in your model or is it just a compliance process for your investment committee.
Cheers thanks
we definitely do review and use QoE findings and results as part of our due diligence
Thanks for sharing your life.
Could you recommend online resources for self-study of LBO Model?
I can't be your intern, but I want to learn from you.🥺
Thank u so much!
Really interested in this career/life style working on my cfa1. when do the 12-16 hour days go away at portfolio manager?
Never
Crazy how much time you guys burn and how little actual work is being done
slay nikitaaaa
Uni nigiri was the easter egg?
You can't take the subway at night anymore?
Is it dangerous to take the subway during evening?
Hi Nikita,
I am curious if you need a video editor for your channel to post more consistently! I emailed you but you didn't reply. B.T.W. I love your content, hope you GROW much much faster:)
thank you, very interesting
I chuckled when she said “sunshines”
As an analyst, do you have any face-to-face contact with clients? Is there any sales/negotiating involved?
As far as I understand, that’s more common with associates and roles above that, but analysts don’t get a lot of time with actual clients and instead do a lot of the ‘dirty work’
Depends on the firm but yes, as an analyst I do get to interact with management teams from the companies. If you’re working in an investments role, you would focus more on deals vs an IRBD role would work more with clients, which are LPs for funds.
Did you work in IB before jumping to PE and what are your end goals ? Great video btw look great :)
Didn’t work in IB previously and honestly not yet sure about the long term
0:51 that's what I call a deal.
Nice video, keep it going, didn't find the easter eggs I think :P
hint: food related 🤫
When you're young, you have margin for error. That's why this part of your career is the easiest.
Is there a specific type of keyboard used in private equity? I am in real estate finance for a relative's firm and always searching for ways to improve my efficiency
there isn't a specific type of keyboard that would necessarily improve efficiency, but knowing excel shortcuts would help
@@nikitatang yes I realized this when i got a new keyboard and i was performing the same haha. if you know the shortcuts that’s the foundation for it all
Are you also a part time model?
How's your CFA Prep going?
Take care 🥺
this is very similar to the M&A process
0:50 , all my neurons got activated lmao
music to the ears 😂
What's the work life balance like in PE ? I assume it's lower hours than IB
Hours are generally better than IB
Do you need an IVY background to get into PE ? I noticed on Linkedin you went to Columbia. I didn't go to a target school but am not sure if the debt load is worth it for an MBA. I'm currently an analyst at Moody's but want to make the transition to IB/PE. @@nikitatang
why you stop? where you go?
Super helpful and informative! Enjoyed watching and learned a lot about the deal process, can you talk more about the deal process and how you diligence companies?
P.S.: sushi looks incredible!
Stay tuned for next video 😉
What did you major again?
May I know how to land on a job offer as a private equity analyst?
same here
this makes me hate how banking is the easiest way to make money
what's your headset 2:59?
Hi. I'm Tuhin from Bangladesh. Sylhet city and Your video So beautifully 👌👌👌
I nice to meet you...😊😊😊
Thank you
Hi Nikita. Do youhave advice to a business that wants to sell the company?. How should they present themselves to get the best price? How to sell before you go bankrupt? How to pass it on responsably so workers can go on, when the owner wants out. Or if a company needs more capital to grow, how to achieve this without beeing taken over too much.
Soyou work with all these models and processtages, but how does the client know these stages and checks and balances?
As an Indian i can confirm that you saved your life by not taking the subway.
0:51 I see what you did there.. GODDAMN!!
Very disturbing
Network?
are you japanese ? where were you born and raised?
Why are there only Asian faces in finance???
why is the subway risk your life?
that was an exaggeration, the point being taking an uber late at night is relatively safer
How old are you?
did 6 years in PE then i said fuck it and switched to a fintech lol
i can already feel you would be a great caring gf/ wife to some lucky chap. love the positivity sun-shiner!
LMFAO! BOBA Break!
You seriously think the Subway is life or death? Your clearly not from New York
So ridiculous/sad she actually thinks that lol, guessing she’s never tried it late night and is just basing this off random incidents she heard about.
0:51 nice arch lol
Ngl I was speechless lol
This is soul sucking work ...not worth it. Work to live...not live to work.
studying cfa lol
No way you are not 20
It’s fake 😂😂😂
Private equality...that privileged semen club
Ur cute❤
Private Equity is so evil.
I mean let us be real. A QoE review is not step 2 DD but leads to step 3 loi
dystopian af
Nice of you to share thank you, but What a stressful and boring thing to do with life...just IMO; its easy to see you had the traditional asian parent pressure!
It's all about passion on what you do
@@kellytang4066 I see ambition, but not so sure about passion. Passions ebb and flow like emotions, while ambition drives despite emotion. Again thanks for sharing, and best wishes endeavoring in the balance of the professional and the personal.
