Hey guys, I am looking to get some insight into whether I should start my journey at an IB or HF - I know theres a few threads out there regarding this but would be great to get some opinions on starting at an EB like Evercore particularly vs HF for SA.
Would starting at IB be better in terms of exit opps and going to HF later on..more transferable skills etc? Any input would be appreciated

IB and HF are completely different worlds.
I mean I am new to this, I was just lucky to get selected for the SAs. Not asking for someone to make the decision for me, but would appreciate opinions on HF vs EB, particularly evercore. Most discussions are HF vs BB
If HF is your long term goal, definitely start at a HF if you have the chance. If you're still unsure about where you see yourself long term, then IB will give you a broad skillset, good training program, and will allow you to keep your options open.
Those are multi-manager hedge funds, and switching from a multi-manager to a single-manager is difficult. The easy answer is Evercore which would give you optionality into both kinds of hedge funds and more. In fact, Evercore places into those funds that you're talking about anyway.
