Recently I got an offer at a $600-700MM fund that manages Mezzanine capital as well as some PE investments.
I would say yes in a heartbeat to this position, except they will not want me for more than 3 years. This is the typical IB to PE to MBA career track. My issue is that I want to avoid getting an MBA at all costs and maybe move into a hedge fund or PE fund in place of the MBA.
They mentioned to me that I can probably get into another PE fund or a hedge fund after a 3 year span since there is a good reputation of the firm and they aren't really a "small" shop. My question would really be if I have a big focus on the Mezzanine investing, would I be very marketable to hedge funds (or other PE firms for that matter)?
I would assume yes, but can't be sure. No idea if I would be considered a "Private Equity Analyst" so to speak, but what opportunities do you think would be there? I just don't want to get pigeon-holed after the 3 years AND be out of a job.
Thanks.
It's really hard to say without knowing more about the strategy but I'm not sure you'd be widely marketable...doing mezz you'll get neither public markets experience or deep in-the-weeds due diligence/analysis. However, you'd likely be marketable to private credit/special situations lending funds.
What happened with other former employees? That would probably give you the best indication/idea.
