start in P/E
Does it makes sense to start ones career in private equity?
Most of the senior staff in PE houses are former Partners from major investment banks; Are there any opportunites to climb the ladder in a PE firm?

Anyone have a review of working at Welch Capital Management in Singapore? Thanks :)
if you can skip banking, do it - pe is way better
Why do you say PE is way better considering current market conditions?
i actually want to know the answer to gillrox also ...everyone says pe is past it's peak...they can't be right, can it?
PE is better because you will probably pick PE over ibanking if you worked in both. however, if you're a junior person, you should know that you will probably get paid more at an investment bank than at a PE firm.

Is there any way to remove this spammer from the boards? This guy is ridiculous.
While I don't have the super sexy job of plugging a website, I do work as an associate at a private equity fund. For a starting job, I believe that you'd be better off starting in IB (or MC), since this is where you'll get the training / experience that you need for PE. Unless you're starting at the PE arm of GS, or at Blackstone, blue-chip PE funds are looking to hire well-trained, seasoned candidates - they don't want to start from scratch.
If a no-name PE firm is hiring kids straight out of undergrad, then its a pretty good bet that they're just looking for a telemarketing resource who will sit on the phone all day long in hopes of one day sourcing some shitty deal.
