Product Manager or VC Analyst
Which option to choose if eventual goal is startup founder?
If you are the tech founder who would be responsible for building the product or MVP then PM. If you are the founder who would be raising capital and deal with all the finance and due diligence work then VC Associate. If you're gonna do both then maybe try looking for a co-founder tbh.
How to look for CoFounder?
Lots of startup accelerators help you find a co-founder once they like your idea when you pitch in startup events/hackathons. Going to these events help you meet like minded people so that helps. Also online communities are there these days like growthX (not sure about this someone else can confirm) which helps to connect and guide founders.
Early stage product > early stage VC > Late stage product > late stage VC
Speak to any founder you know well and you'll realise what VaLuE AdD VC analysts do. Operating experience is any day better. If you have some friends in VC, then it's sorted for you.
