PE recruiting given investment banking exodus

Given the lateral frenzy this recent past year, was wondering what the competition would look like since many of the people have departed the industry this past cycle.

Also, not too many people in my group have quit 2/ 10 from my analyst class so was wondering what competition from other BB and boutique bank groups might look like for buy side.

Interesting take for sure, didn't account for laterals. Might be weird - but in my group, besides the normal 2nd year analyst turnover not may first years have been deciding on leaving idk if that's the case everywhere though.

 

less turnover than usual (2018-2019) or less turn in comparison to other groups, all our group heads have been saying on conf calls are that he highlights how well our group has been about keeping everyone
