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?
I would think that, when PE firms exit through IPOs, they would hire an IB to handle it for them, thus not needing someone with only an analyst's level of experience on an IPO
