GIC Direct Investment Group

Can anyone comment on GIC's PE division? How does it compare to other traditional LBO funds? Do they really only take minority stakes / co-invest? How would an associate role at GIC position you for other PE roles further down the line? Also, if anyone has insights on the interview process, would appreciate if you could share.
