Apollo HVF better than PE?

Hey guys, 2 questions on Apollo:

How do you compare Apollo HVF to PE? Is HVF more prestigious given the technicality? Is one better than the other from a learning perspective and future flexibility to pivot?

What is the HVF associate process like? What should I expect modeling wise etc.? Also how do people differ on the job?

 

You don't need answers to your last 3 questions because anyone who asks your first 3 questions, especially the prestige one, isn't going to work at Apollo HVF.
