Clarity wanted about on-cycle recruiting

Hi everyone. I'm an incoming SA 2026 in IB currently working on research involving market design for the on-cycle private equity process. Would love to talk/chat with someone experienced in the process (on either side) so I could get a clear picture of how it works. Thanks!
