Did I make a mistake in choosing MF?

hello all-

So a bit of background, currently a BB analyst heading to a MF next summer in NY and have been feeling conflicted about both the position and the recruiting process recently.

To boil it down, the MF position is in a sector specific fund which I do not see myself committing to a career in (think niche industry like real estate) As well, I see myself moving back to the West Coast to be closer to family and support groups.

Looking back at how I arrived in my current situation, frankly it was just lack of conviction. I had gone into recruiting targeting specific West Coast opportunities, but of course communicated differently to certain recruiters who I knew would only place industry. Recruiting kicked off, and I was given a MF offer in the first few days with the group of course pushing for me to sign. At that point, risk aversion kicked in and I just took the bird in hand.

That being said, how available are opportunities to make one more pivot both within finance and outside?

If I do enjoy PE, do MFs ever let good performers switch offices/groups? Do other funds give serious looks to candidates with experience in an unrelated, niche industry?

In terms of moving back home, what choices do I really have besides getting an MBA as a reset? Given most opportunities would be tech related, is it a problem for me to not have any tech experience?

Appreciate all the feedback I advance, and happy to have this also be a broader discussion with people in similar situations
