Join Recalc: Technical Training & Mentorship
We are happy to pass along the amazing organization Recalc, with several MiddDIB members endorsing it.
Applications for the Recalc Finance Accelerator - Spring 2023 cohort are opening on January 18th! Join them for an online info session on Wednesday, January 18th from 6pm - 7pm ET to learn more about the program. To register for the info session, click here.
What is it?
The Recalc Finance Accelerator is an intensive program designed to help you launch your career in private equity and alternative investing. The program is co-led by industry veterans: Recalc founder Katie Fifer (ex-Audax Group, Paxion Capital) and Jill Pierce (CarterPierce recruiting). We partner closely with many of the leading firms across the industry. The Accelerator focuses on:
Technical training
Mentorship & community
Recruiting support
Past participants have secured internships and jobs at Blackstone, General Atlantic, Audax Group, Spectrum Equity, TCW, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and many other top investment firms and banks.
What kind of commitment is required?
This is an intense, transformational program that requires meaningful effort. Participants are required to attend live zoom-based training sessions (2x/week for 2 months) and are encouraged to join additional guest panels, mock interview prep, and community events.
Who is it for?
We place a special emphasis on training and developing candidates historically underrepresented within private equity. This includes women, underrepresented minorities, first generation college students, and students from schools without traditional on-campus recruiting. The program is open to undergrads of all ages as well as recent graduates pivoting to investing roles. College sophomores especially benefit from the program given the timing of internship recruiting. You do not need to have prior finance experience. You do need to have an outstanding work ethic, be analytically-oriented, and be intellectually curious.
How can I learn more and apply?

A message from our members: Elisa Bautista
“I am passing along this amazing program I participated in this past fall. It is hosted by Katie Fifer who worked with various Private Equity firms and now is the founder of Recalc Academy. I absolutely loved these classes as they were a great introduction to accounting, excel, and LBO modeling. Would highly recommend it to everyone, especially freshmen! “
