college senior with RO wondering what are the best things to do this year in preparation for PE recruiting while I have so much time on my hands.
Also wondering if anyone can recommend good resources (modeling courses, how to choose/research firms, how to decide whether to target MM vs. MF, how to approach headhunter calls, etc.). Any advice related to PE recruiting would be appreciated.
