Would the door still be open to distressed HFs at the MM PE program? Have two years of summer experiences at reputable distressed funds, if that helps 

 

Would take the MMPE offer if you want to do publics and do them as soon as possible. Buyside experience is always valued over sellside. The lacking exits for now is likely due to it being newer so the sample size is small.

Distressed HFs aren't recruiting from a random MM PE fund over EB Rx groups man

 

I mean this guy said he could see himself doing vanilla L/S. Also MMPE to distressed is not like a crazy sell to HHs either.

 

People meatride RX but feel like I see the same amount of PE analysts as RX analysts at these funds. If anything more M&A and non-rx... anyone have any insight? At least from my inbox it seems HHs send top banking / PE analysts the same opportunities, and it's up to them to convert from there 

 

RX

if you want to do MMHF, probably doesn't matter...just pick the program that teaches you the most and helps you with getting the role. however, new PE analyst programs often have poor training, so probably doesn't help

if single manager SM, RX. recruiting is all about brand, and recruiters are the gatekeepers/brand snobs/focused on success rates and RX has proven track record. less likely to take a chance on you otherwise unless you blow them away in that initial interview
