Current college senior here entering a very reputable growth equity firm (>$10B AUM) out of school. Hypothetically, what's the path to top HF for someone in my spot? GE --> PE --> MBA --> HF?

Hey Incoming Analyst in PE - Growth, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I'm here since nobody responded to your thread! Bummer...could just be time of day or unlucky (or the question/topci is too vague or too specific). Maybe one of these topics will help:
More suggestions...
If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
GE—>HF. Lots of crossover funds now and HFs with private arms. Have seen numerous people make this jump successfully.
On the L/S side or VC side of the crossovers? Or both? Also, any chance you could give examples of jumps? Like idk spectrum or summit —> tiger cub level?
Could you potentially expand on that some, what caliber of GE funds were they at? Specific sector? IBD background? How long they were in GE role.. any info just so I can understand the progression would be great. Thanks.
