Lev Fin to Tech Corp Dev?

Hi all,

Do Corporate Development teams at tech companies hire from LevFin? I've noticed that those companies like to hire from TMT or M&A groups, not as much LF. If they're looking for industry expertise, is it better to just take a financial analyst or business development role in the industry of choice? Or finish two years of LF and start applying again?

Thanks for any responses
