Today is International Intern Day. International Intern Day! A day to celebrate the next generation of leaders — our interns! 🎉
This year, we at Beringer have had the pleasure of working with Haris Sheikh, our 2024 Summer Investment Analyst, and we want you to get to know him too. We’re grateful to Haris for his hard work, fresh perspectives, and continuous desire to learn.
7 Questions with Beringer Capital Summer Analyst Haris Sheikh:
Q1. What did you want to be when you were a child?
A professional soccer player! Real Madrid all the way.
Q2. How did you decide on Beringer for your summer internship?
I knew someone that had worked at Beringer previously and they had great things to say, but then when I had my interview, I was really drawn in by the culture; everyone was so nice!
Q3. The coolest thing about my internship has been_______.
Getting to sit with people who run multi-million-dollar businesses, like @Benzinga and learning how they think.
Q4. What’s the key learning you’ll take away from your time at Beringer?
I’ve learned how to think like a Private Equity Analyst…what to look for in a deal and how the deal evolves over its lifecycle. Also, attention to detail is really important!
Q5. You’re a Finance major—do you see yourself being in the Private Equity world as a possible career path?
Yes, 100%. I was interested in it before, but this experience really affirmed it for me.
Q6: What is your favourite thing about being a part of the Beringer Capital team?
The team is incredibly supportive, and the collaborative culture fosters both personal and professional growth. It's inspiring to be part of a group where everyone is passionate about what they do, and where my contributions are valued and recognized.
Q7. What’s the most fun thing you’ve done at Beringer this summer?
On the social side, they had a welcome event at an Escape Room. I love Escape Rooms—I’ve done 16 of them. I only escaped from 15, though. The one I didn’t get out of was one I did with my parents. 😊
