Oncycle Private Equity Recruiting Canada (Class of 2025)

What did oncycle look like for PE this year in Canada? I heard Altas did oncycle in August, but not sure Brookfield or Onex participated in it. Any idea which firms have or have not hired, and when the ASO class of 2025 will be hired if not during the August oncycle wave?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, it seems that the specifics about the on-cycle recruiting process for the class of 2025 in Canada, including the participation of Altas, Brookfield, or Onex, are not explicitly mentioned.

However, it's important to note that the on-cycle recruiting process can vary from year to year and firm to firm. Some firms may choose to participate in on-cycle recruiting, while others may opt for off-cycle recruiting or a mix of both.

As for the hiring timeline for the ASO class of 2025, it's hard to say without more specific information. The hiring process can depend on a variety of factors, including the firm's needs, the market conditions, and the availability of candidates.

I recommend keeping an eye on the WSO forums and reaching out to your network for the most up-to-date information. You might also consider reaching out directly to the firms you're interested in for more specific information.
