PE firms with Veteran Initatives?

I'm currently a first year an MM in a strong and recognizable group. I spent several years as an enlisted Marine prior to going to an Ivy and I'm interested in off cycle recruiting for a 2023 start. Anyone aware of PE shops that have strong veterans hiring initiatives?

Thanks, I saw that there is a more formal process from that angle too. I imagine though that the firms participating in those sorts of programs would look favorably on hiring qualified veterans into associate roles as well. If anything having veterans on the investment side would be good for managing relationships with vets on the portco side.

 

Partners Group just launched a program to hire veteran associates into investment roles. Targeting vets with a couple years of IB/consulting experience or coming out of an MBA.
