Clients for CarterPierce?

Does anyone know some of the firms that use Carter Pierce? They focus exclusively on west coast opportunities, but I feel like most of the major shops still go through the major east coast HHs (HSP, Amity, etc). Thanks.

Just one person's opinion / perspective: CarterPierce was one of the weaker firms I've dealt with in terms of showing me opportunities. That doesn't mean you shouldn't speak with them, but they only sent me two or three interesting things.

They may not have sent me opportunities for many reasons, however. I'm MM, I was a first year, I'm not west-coast based, and I have no truly compelling reason to move (beyond that I was geography agnostic).

 

mostly lower MM ops with a handful of mid-tier clients. exclusively non-NYC firms
