How Competitive is MM or LMM PE From a Mid BB Group

For the Mid Groups at the Mid BBs where not many people make the exits to PE, is recruiting into a respectable MM fund attainable? What about LMM?

Is the same true if I went to a nontarget?

How would recruiting change? Would I have to be more proactive and rely less on HHs?
