Too many debt issuances and not many M&A Deals a bad thing for IB Analysts?

Hey all - wanted to get your thoughts on this: will an Analyst get any interest from PE recruiters if your BB industry/coverage group has had many debt issuances but only one large M&A transaction (2011)? On behalf of someone who is interested in moving to an Associate in PE. Thanks
