Happens quick, kid. If you're not already prepping for oncycle you're behind.
What’s the best way to prep I’m going through peak framework but like what else do I need to do
This has happened in the summer before analysts start for years now. They are just gathering lists - names, emails, groups etc right now. Maybe a short interest form.
This is not the same as HHs having formal oncycle convos. Oncycle is soon, sure, but don't take this as an indicator of it coming right now because it has happened for like 3+ years
Do these applications / short interest forms matter that much?
Some HH are asking for location and industry preference. Will this be concrete/lock us in? Not sure if I am overthinking it but I am not quite ready to lock in my preferences for oncycle at this point?
the formal convos are where that'll get more locked in, but if you have some broad idea and then a story if that idea changes you'll be fine. expecting someone to know if they like the work before the work starts is a big ask
Doesn't lock you in, and if you start and decide you want to change direction a bit that is fine - just be able to articulate why you're interested in the new area (you need to be able to do this anyway)
Oncycle will be as early as last year if not earlier. Be prepared
Agreed, it's crazy how early the on-cycle process happens now. If I were an incoming analyst, I'd make sure I can build an LBO from scratch and am prepared for headhunter discussions and interviews even if I don't have any deal experience. Some on-cycle interviews happened as early as Labor Day last year. If you don't know what to do, I'd recommend reaching out to the guys at Bryant Street Advisors for interview help.
All of on-cycle happened before Labor day last year - it was August 29th. I'd definitely expect it to be even earlier this year
