Also a prospect but from my networking I've heard

  • Industrials: Very sweaty but top group
  • Services: Less sweaty since the old group head left, because of that some limbo 
  • Healthcare: Pretty good returns (CityMD was a monster), associates told me they were working 9-5 so I guess good culture but not sure what that means for deal flow 
 

How sweaty does industrials feel? I have an invite for an interview with a VP there 

 

Prospect in PE - LBOs

How sweaty does industrials feel? I have an invite for an interview with a VP there 

For what position, Analyst or Associate? Or higher?

 

Seems like a really interesting group looks like business and consumer services. Sotera and car wash look like deal of all sizes
