Start with a free previewWe’ve been reading VC resumes for a long time.
Venture5 didn’t decide to review VC resumes because it seemed like a good product idea. We started doing it because our audience kept asking.
For years we’ve run the VC Careers newsletter and the VC Jobs board at johngannonblog.com, where candidates hunt for roles and funds post openings. We publish the annual VC Salary Survey. And we’ve done hundreds of resume reviews for readers over the years.
We codified that playbook, developed across hundreds of resumes, and built an AI reviewer trained on it. The feedback you get back is guided by the same rubric we’ve applied by hand for years.
How we approach it
Most resume review is one-size-fits-all. You usually get generic career-coach feedback, PDF markup or screenshots, and a rubric built for any industry, not for how VC fund partners actually evaluate candidates.
Here’s what’s in every $49 full review instead:
Rubric developed from reviewing hundreds of VC job hunter resumes
Tuned for what fund partners actually look for, not generic career advice.
The exact, word-for-word changes we think you need to make, and why
Your resume comes back as a .docx with native Word tracked changes, each one paired with an inline comment explaining the reasoning. Open in Word or Google Docs. Accept what you like, reject what you don’t. Nothing to retype. You’re not just getting redlines, you’re learning the pattern.
Customized to your stage and sector
Tell us the kind of role you’re going for. Series A consumer associate, platform role at a multi-stage firm. We tailor the review to that target.
The free preview covers a 3-point subset of this feedback, delivered by email.
What VC Job Seekers Said About Our Resume Reviews
“I was a VC analyst coming up on my second year, feeling like I had hit a wall in my attempts to break through when vying for associate roles. That review led to improved momentum in my application response rates, and I ultimately landed an associate role.”
“You helped me revise my VC resume and I landed interviews with MetaProp NYC after applying with the updated resume. Thank you so much for shedding light on my VC journey.”
“The review helped me better understand what hiring managers are looking for, which is incredibly valuable when deciding what to edit, rewrite, and how to craft narratives. I received interview offers with Techstars, AngelList, and Vista Equity, to name a few.”
“Your callouts as to where and why I should make changes to my resume were spot on. I particularly appreciated the nuanced feedback around my transaction experience, which I don’t think other resume reviewers would have picked up on.”
