IB: Is breadth of exit opps a lie

Besides PE, Corp Dev, and maybe FP&A, I don't really see a lot of heat when recruiting for other types of spots. 

Most PEs I deal with are snobbish. Corp Devs are boring and companies seem to want accountants for FP&A positions. I am getting looked at by a couple of hedge funds, but  most prefer equity research people. 

Where are those promised exit opportunities? Where? Is this a big lie?
