2010 SUMMER PE / HF RECRUITING

Just interested where people are in recruiting for 2010 P/E / HF? I think this post is more specifically geared towards 1st years currently in IBD.

Have you met with recruiters? Have you heard back? any interviews? etc? Ideas on timing for recruiting this year?

I've met with most of the major headhunters and most have said that recruiting will start later this year. But with that said, some say recruiting might start as early as next month or wait till bonuses and ranks and released.

I only know of a couple people that had/have interviews lined up. And it seems like the mega-funds are starting with the KKR posting.

Any thoughts from anyone else? Updates?
