MBB Consulting >> Megafund PE Possible?

Just a quick question, does anyone have any experience or knowledge if consultants from MBB can move to megafunds or if it's limited to MM PE? I researched on WSO and found places like Bain Cap or Golden Bridge that really love consultants and I know PE is possible as a whole. However, I was curious if megafunds like Blackstone, KKR, or Apollo take any consultants from MBB?

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
