Frequently Asked Questions
How is a corp dev resume different from investment banking?
Corp dev resumes emphasize strategic rationale and integration outcomes, not just deal execution. We help you frame acquisitions in terms of business impact — revenue synergies captured, integration milestones hit, strategic objectives achieved — rather than just transaction sizes and multiples.
What metrics matter most for corp dev?
Focus on deal pipeline (targets screened, LOIs signed), transaction value, synergy capture (cost savings realized vs. projected), integration KPIs, and strategic outcomes. We'll help you quantify the end-to-end deal lifecycle from sourcing through integration.
I'm coming from banking — how do I reposition?
We reframe your banking experience around strategic thinking and business ownership rather than execution speed. Corp dev teams want to see you can evaluate fit, drive cross-functional alignment, and own outcomes beyond closing — not just build models and pitch books.
Do you cover different corp dev team structures?
Yes. Whether you're in a centralized M&A team at a Fortune 100, a lean 3-person corp dev group at a PE-backed platform, or a hybrid strategy/corp dev role, we tailor the positioning accordingly.
