Buy-Side Recruiting for Non-Targets
Hi all,
Hope all is well. Just for some context: I am a mega non-target. Translation: you do not know of my school unless you live in my area.
I migrated here and attended a private 4 year where I smoked weed and ruined my GPA, transferred to community college and then finally to my state school to have a clean GPA so I can recruit.
I managed to land a Mid-Tier BB Coverage Group.
My entire group are tier 1/2 schools and basically me. The group typically exits 1 MF per year, a few UMM and rest MM/GE/Corp Dev/VC roles.
My concern is that when I speak to HHs they will see my school and basically just connect me to shitty funds where I don’t see myself. Ideally my goal would be a fund where they are MM heading into UMM space or an UMM fund already. Potentially looking at HFs (MMs like Citadel/Mil).
Now with some context:
1) on my resume, should I just list my final school on it? No mention of CC or my first university?
2) should I try lateral to GS/MS type to get better ops?
3) is it true HFs care less about education?
4) do I even have realistic ops at an UMM at least?
5) is there anything I can do to improve my odds?
thank you everyone!
