This question might have been asked before but looking for an update to 2020. I know KKR is going through the process now - but I was wondering what other shops hire out of undergrad, especially credit funds. Mainly curious about FT, not for an SA -> FT.

Ares & Antares both have analyst programs. I’m 99% sure that both have summer analyst programs that they hire out of, so not sure how much FT recruiting they do though.
silver point generally runs a small process
Silver Point (tight knit recruiting process almost exclusively from Wharton,1-2 kids every other year or so), Oak Hill Advisors has a built out analyst program (both private credit and sector focused capital structure flexible teams), Apollo I believe takes out of undergrad for their specialty finance group, Goldman Sachs MBD Private Credit may take a select few out of undergrad (usually 1-3 HYP kids), and GSAM Private Credit will usually 1 kid out of undergrad per year. KKR Credit as mentioned. That’s about all I know of.
