Bump, curious as well
If your optimizing for optionality you should go the IB route. It's far easier breaking into tech (or non tech-focused) buyouts from IB than growth equity, as someone who's done both roles. Going into a VC firm where you'll model shouldn't even be in the equation (what are you modeling at the seed stage)? That being said, you should look at MF PE's growth arms. Generally they do such late stage deals that sourcing becomes less of a focus (only a small handful of companies to cold email at the Series D+ stage) and analysts should be able to touch some of the models. Will let anyone at KKR TMT Growth, BX Growth, Bain Tech Opps, etc. comment. I have my reservations about going to these types of shops vs. GA/Insight/Summit, but it is a decent option given your interests.
What can you possibly be modeling for early stage? Mid to late stage VC okay I can maybe some comps and waterfall but nothing compared to LBO.
Stripes Group and Susquehana are firms that come to mmind with less sourcing than others that I know of at the analyst level
Modeling at GE level must be a meme lol, still a crapshoot that's completely unpredictable. People (read VCs) mock TAM but like, do you have anything better?
