PE Firms with FT Analyst Programs

Hey guys,

I've done 2 summers in IB at a BB and am interested in doing PE FT. I've heard mixed things about some PE firms hiring FT but I was wondering if anyone had a list of firms with Analyst programs, aside from Bx/Silverlake/Vista/WP/GA/Ares?

Golden Gate hires (and has a summer program) almost exclusively for Notre Dame kids.

Spoke to a guy there who said that it's cause ND is one of Golden Gate's biggest LPs lol/mad connections through the senior folk
