BUMP - very interested in any information on PE Secondaries and what the role of an associate at these firm entails.
It sucks. secondaries suck. bschool opps are good though. expect very low comp in the 100k range.
.
comp is not in the range of i bankers, but much much better work life balance and decent exit ops for pe and bscool
^ Disagree with "decent exit ops for PE".
Bschool, not "bscool" is definitely an strong possibility though.
you sound like a ball of fun
Doors aren't going to open themselves like at a top IB. However, if you have the technical skills and are on top of networking, there are plenty of MM PE shops that would be interested (not the Apollos/Blackstones). Secondaries provides just as much exposure to the industry (if not more) than many IB positions. Assuming you are sharp and can interview, you will have Exit Ops.
bump - keen to find out more about lexington secondaries. has anyone been through their process before (incl. case study)? keen to find out more about the types of deals they've done in the past given the absence of a lot of information from general websearch. Thanks!
