Leverage Finance Capital Markets Exit Opportunities?

Wondering what are the exit opportunities for a junior at LevFin Cap Markets. Currently at a BB (not GS/JPM/MS). Would public markets/HF be possible (CLOs/distress/opportunistic)? How about Private Credit/Direct Lending as well as PE (know PE might be a longer shot)?

What size of funds should be in the reach? MF/UMMs possible or just purely MMs?

Do IG DCM rather than LEvFin capmkts. People at least know what the former is. The latter is a very small team. You won’t do well in recruiting for buyside investment roles because you spend no time analyzing company fundamentals.
