PE Recruitment - Bank/Group's role in MF/UMM recruitment?
Hey everyone,
Hoping to get some input from people in the industry who have a good understanding of recruitment.
This forum makes it out to be that if you work at say GS FIG, GS TMT, PJT RSSG, MS M&A, you have a materially better chance at MF recruiting than if you went to a strong group that isn't traditionally as well-placing. Is this really the case, or is it primarily self selection of top students into these groups?
If you work at a reputable bank with good deal flow that isn't considered AS prestigious by this forum (e.g. a BAML coverage group, PWP), will you still have access to the same recruitment opportunities? If the same person, all else equal, worked at MS M&A vs. Greenhill M&A, would you expect them to have a materially different PE outcome?
Thanks a lot for any help. I'm trying to make the best choices to start my career, and I want to make sure I'm informed.
I was at one of the groups you're talking about (strong group within a BB that's not GS/JPM/MS) and we were afforded the same opportunities to interview with MF's as all of the aforementioned firms.
My feeling is as long as you're at a well-respected group within a BB, you're going to get the same headhunter outreach. How you handle that outreach is up to you.
Did weaker groups at your bank get the same opportunities? Do you have any insight on independent advisories?
Thanks for the help, much appreciated.
