Private Funds Group

Hello,

I will be going for LBS MiM and I want to apply for summer analyst/analyst roles at Private Funds Groups at IB/EB in London. I have some questions but any insights on what to expect during the recruitment process would be very appreciated.

  1. How should I prepare for the interviews?

  2. What are the typical hours?

  3. What is the comp? Is it similar to IB M&A or much different?

  4. What shops are the best to start a career in?

Many thanks!!!
