  • Collaborate with Growth Acceleration team colleagues on a mix of high-priority diligence and portfolio projects, contributing to key deliverables and presenting findings to a range of internal and external senior stakeholders

  • Scope, develop and present a “keystone project” on a high-priority thematic topic at the end of the program (e.g., recent trends in growth equity and key implications for GA) to senior members of the Growth Acceleration team
  • Gain significant exposure to broader growth investing concepts (e.g., through regular Lunch & Learn series with a range of GA senior professionals, as well as a rigorous introductory training program)
  • Build deep mentor/mentee relationships with members of the Growth Acceleration team, including 1:1 check-ins with senior Growth Acceleration team members at key stages of the summer program

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
