Landing a Growth Buyout Role - Frustrated

Short answer is no, unless you got a top mba first. You’ll be competing with MF and MM associates also trying to lateral along with a tight hiring environment. Deal process and dynamics of working at an L Catterton or TPG doing large scale buyouts is completely different than buying a sub $100M EV business.

It was an arbitrary number. Many of the firms you named are doing billion dollar deals. If you understand the dynamics then you should know why they are unlikely to recruit someone with such different deal experience. Not to mention there are plenty of qualified candidates with more relevant PE experience at larger firms. Banking may help a little but at this point firms will put more value on what you’ve worked on most recently (not two years ago). Nothing is ever truly impossible in this sense, but it a difficult transition to make coming from a random LMM firm in a tier 3 city. There’s a reason headhunters haven’t been helpful.
