Does anyone have insight into what it is like to recruit from a newer boutique (Liontree, Dyal, M Klein, etc.)?

Is it a major uphill battle? Is it easier to secure an offer than from a random BB coverage group? If you're in PE, how would your firm view an analyst from one of these places?

 
 

Can't speak for the other banks mentioned, but M Klein is super target-heavy. Most of the recruitment doesn't even seem to be done through the schools, but from resume drops of a select few clubs within the school. Unless you have a family connection or networked like an absolute animal, insanely tough to get an offer at one of these firms from a non-target.
