There is not a general answer to this question. Much more is dependent on other factors, namely gender and other diversity criteria, language, deal experience and lastly perceived prestige of the bank.

Don't worry, it can be done from all of these boutiques. Candidates from BBs, however, are usually preferred (ceteris paribus). Don't think H&F would hire from an EB, they largely hire consultants and fill the remaining spots from top BBs. Apollo is a bit of a random place, so very hard to see a pattern in their recruiting. Due to their nature of hairy deals, candidates with RX experience will be valued. Candidates from EBs will stand a decent chance here.

Generally, I would see PJT/PWP/Evercore on the same level ahead of CVP.
