PE Analyst Roles (FT)

Hey everyone. Incoming summer analyst at a top BB, wondering if anyone could shed light on the process for lateraling to private equity Full Time after SA? I’ve seen a few analyst spots but not sure if these are still possible considering many firms have their own SA these days as well. Any insights appreciated (timeline, what firms, process details, etc.) Thanks so much!

it's more common in the MM space but if you have a top BB SA I'm guessing you would (rightfully) not want to move downmarket like that.
