Breaking into a POD from M&A
Can soneone please give a general picture regarding how this move can be done? Is it frequent from GS/MS/JPM at top M&A/Industry/Coverage groups? If so, at what seniority? What would someone have to do to achieve the move from this position? Is this the type of candidates they look for in their academies? Any other recommendations on how to do it will also be appreciated. Also, any colour into if it works differently in London would also be helpful. Thank you!
Be able to model and have pitches prepared.
Seems doable? Its literally what I do all day (not many pitches but a lot of decks)
Do you know people who did the change? If so, at what seniority?
Thank you for your reply!
Decks aren't really what they're looking for ime. More so, looking at how you isolate the key debate, build a view + differentiation on where the numbers that matter are going into a given quarter and if you know how to structure a pitch correctly (i.e keep it 3 mins or shorter).
Its very common. Have seen people move from An2-Ass2. "Academy" looks for different things vs straight laterals.
So An2-Ass2 tend to lateral directly into a pod?
They can lateral to a pod or join one of the training programs.
To be honest, I've even seen a VP lateral. Its not like PE where there's a set time tbh.
if you are in a top M&A group why not just go for the gold (tiger cub/SM) instead of pod
Did u not see United Kingdom tag.
HF here is either work for citadel pod #11 or Lord Asquire's $30mm family office
Not very familiar with both options, can you give me further insights into the differences between the two? Thanks!
apologies, ignore then
