PE Interview Question - Etiquette
Hey guys. Question regarding best practices here. I'm targeting a medium sized city and shooting for an Associate role at a smaller middle market type shop. My background is slightly non traditional but my aggressive networking efforts have been garnering decent response. So here is my situation: I have been talking to several firms and one just offered me to come out and do an on site (I live in another state). I'm thinking if I am gonna miss one day from my current role, I mine as well just miss two and try to get some face time with these other groups. Is it rude or considered a snub to politely inform the firm that was going to pay for my travel accommodations that the requested site visit day works out perfect with my schedule as I'll already be in the area the day prior? Aka I won't need your help with a ticket? I'll just end up funding the trip myself but I'll be able to get in front of a few groups which I think is more important. I'm thinking this firm will either take it as a snub or could also see it as a good thing (they'll have an idea I'm actively talking with other groups). What do you guys think?
I think it will be considered a good thing - you are saving them money. Don't read too much into it.
Just say something along the lines of you will be there for work already, so no need to book your travel. Then schedule your other appointments.
Only thing is if you are scheduling other lunches, etc., make sure not to do it near your on-site interview, so you don't run into them later or so don't catch you talking to someone else. The PE world is small, especially at smaller cities.
