Private Equity Circus Wheel

Am I fucked or what. I just read that US PE recruiting starts 22 months before start. Cmon. What is this.

Basically, you fuck your life to break into IB. Then you finally suceed just to start all over again with another even more escapist goal. That‘s so fucking sad. How can one not feel hornswoggled. When did smart people loose their balls to say no, I won‘t let them treat me like that.

My question: How many months in advance does UK PE recruiting start?
