Who do you go to for advice as you progress through your career?
As a college student recruiting for IB, you have tons of bankers you can reach out to (alumni/network) who can give you advice and there's so much information online. However, as you move from IB to PE, there are even fewer who have crossed the path, but he process is still well known since there are enough people who have done it before. However, as you move through your career and there are fewer and fewer blueprints to follow, how do you make decisions regarding your career moves and where to go from there?
Is part of this simply intuition?
Just keep asking for advice. There's always someone above you or who has been there. Though keep in mind, especially with places with greater lateral mobility, they do a good job of preparing you for these positions.
Anyone but your parents
Idk about this, some parents are at an MD level and have a decent network of their own that gives you the ability to ask for such advice. Would be foolish not to use that.
Ok true, it would be different if your parents were in the same/a closely-related industry
If you're fortunate enough, the MD's/senior people you are working under will give you advice and guide you through your career. I've learned a lot working under senior people, such as how to go about asking for promotions, etc.
