We're looking for driven, analytical, and detail-obsessed students to join our Investment Banking Internship and gain hands-on experience in the world of deals โ from M&A and capital markets to valuations and pitch books.
About the Internship
As an Investment Banking Intern, you'll work on realistic deal-cycle challenges inspired by real investment banks: analyzing targets, valuing companies, building pitch materials, and supporting mock M&A and financing transactions.
You'll learn how bankers evaluate businesses, structure deals, and present recommendations to clients and deal teams.
Responsibilities
* Analyze potential M&A targets and strategic buyers for mock sell-side and buy-side mandates.
* Build three-statement financial models for practice companies.
* Perform discounted cash flow (DCF) valuations with sensitivity analyses.
* Build comparable-company (trading comps) and precedent-transaction analyses.
* Construct football-field valuation summaries to frame deal pricing.
* Build leveraged buyout (LBO) models with debt schedules and returns analysis.
* Draft mock pitch book slides and executive summaries for hypothetical deals.
* Prepare Confidential Information Memoranda (CIMs) for mock companies.
* Run accretion/dilution analyses for hypothetical mergers.
* Research industry trends, deal activity, and comparable transactions.
* Build buyer lists and track outreach for mock sell-side processes.
* Perform due diligence checklist reviews on mock target companies.
* Analyze capital structures and financing options (debt vs. equity).
* Build scenario models for best-case, base-case, and downside cases.
* Track deal pipelines and manage mock data rooms.
* Draft teasers and one-page company profiles for outreach.
* Analyze synergies and pro forma financials for hypothetical mergers.
* Research IPO processes and draft mock S-1-style company overviews.
* Build covenant and credit analysis summaries for debt financings.
* Use AI tools for financial research, modeling, and document drafting.
* Present deal theses, valuations, and recommendations to stakeholders.
Requirements
* Current student or recent graduate in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business Administration, or a related field.
* Strong interest in investment banking, M&A, and capital markets.
* Analytical, detail-oriented, and comfortable with long-form financial work.
* Strong spreadsheet skills (Excel or Google Sheets); formulas and modeling a plus.
* Good written and verbal communication skills, including slide-style presentation.
* Ability to work under tight deadlines with high attention to detail.
* Interest in deals, valuation, and corporate strategy.
* Familiarity with financial statements (income, balance sheet, cash flow) is a plus but not required.
* Familiarity with AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or similar platforms is a plus.
* Previous professional finance experience is not required.
What You'll Gain
* Hands-on experience running a simulated investment banking deal process.
* Practical experience building DCF, comps, precedent-transaction, and LBO models.
* Experience drafting pitch books, CIMs, teasers, and deal memos.
* Understanding of M&A deal cycles, buy-side and sell-side processes.
* Experience analyzing capital structures and financing options.
* Understanding of synergy analysis and accretion/dilution modeling.
* Experience researching industries and comparable transactions.
* Practical exposure to due diligence and data-room workflows.
* Experience using AI and modern finance tools.
