If an analyst worked on very high-profile IPOs or other non-M&A/LBO deals (GM's IPO, for example) will the fact that it was so high-profile help them in PE/HF interviews even though the experience isn't really relevant?

but why doesn't it add value to the extent that PE firms often exit through IPOs?
