Ignore title. Now in PE. Firms don’t care what industry group you are in. You aren’t going to be an expert after two years. They care much more about the platform of your IB stint. Ik a bunch of people who moved from various groups like REGL, FIG, Nat Resources to growth and corporate PE including myself. When on cycle hits you’ll realize they don’t care and you’ll be hit up by every industry group and firm type if you are at a BB and express that interest to a HH.
