From what I've seen, the MF PE analyst programs (BX, KKR, SLP, WP) recruit those who are currently undergrads. Not sure about UMM/MM firms
Vista and Blackstone have taken analysts that came out of financial development programs and pwc tas from my school this is definitely possible.
For the BCP fund?
Yes one of the guys did two years at a banks development program and went to Blackstone corporate pe. The other from PWC I’m not sure about but he has private equity on his linkedin.
Bump. Wondering if anyone has done this at a non MF
