Robert Smith seems to be doing ok.
Same with Orlando Bravo.
I know at least 3-4 from my class who have done so.
Doable, might have to start as associate and “lose” some time. Might have to do MM but can still place well.
Currently a lower MM ($5-10M EBITDA business) Private Credit Assosiate completing my second year and previously did 2 years here as an Analyst right out of no name undergrad. Tier 3 city. Have been trying to transition to UMM Credit funds and its been tough (progress through modeling/technical/case study rounds but get passed on for fit, a NY local candidate, someone with BB/EB experience, experienced MBA candidate, and etc in late stage interview rounds).
I am in a situation where I have an interview lined up at a top BB (GS/MS) in a top group for an Associate role. I am planning to take the role “if offered” and my plan is to leverage the BB brand and transition back to private credit at a UMM/MF after 1 year of IB Associate experience at the BB bank. Do you guys think this would work or should I stick it out and keep trying? Not sure if going to sell side to eventually move back to buyside would make sense. Thanks
Interested in PC at MM funds after a couple years as an associate. Would you be able to PM me so I can ask a couple questions re: your experience? Thanks!
I work in MM PC (mezz/uni/pref world) and we're looking for an associate with IB experience. PM me we can chat
It was difficult a few years ago...But it happened particularly in the more niche asset classes...Maybe things have changed now. US is very structured, in London you still can, and in the Middle East, anybody can.
I know a post-MBA associate who jumped straight to VP (pre-MBA they had high caliber non-IB/PE experience). Super rare, most go to associate level, but with as many funds as are out there anything can happen (less so for megacap funds with traditional recruiting pipelines)
