...seriously?

Goldman anything is good enough for mega fund PE.

..don't know of any evercore guys at KKR or Carlyle, of course I haven't scrolled through their investment associate profiles in a few years..

obviously if you've done 3 to 4 separate billion dollar deals (M&A or financial sponsor related work) at evercore versus financings for loans at goldman levfin, evercore would probably be the better choice at getting interviews.

but thats really going to come down to you not which firm you work at.

but all else being the same..gs

i really don't think thats true though. i know that last couple analyst classes at evercore sent a couple kids to warburg pincus, apax, carlyle and sac captl. out of the relatively small number of people in each class that seems pretty decent
