What Is The Most Shameful Thing You Would Do To Land MF PE Job Offer?
Let's be honest, most of you (if you could get away with it) would be willing to suck Partner D*ck to land PE jobs at BX, KKR. Or at the very least, you would atleast seriously consider it.
Half-joking, what's the most shameful thing you would to do land one of these gigs?

“Spread your checks and lift your sack”
Id be willing to work MF PE hours for 2 years for an offer
Have someone film me using a squat pad...
Working at GS for 2 years
Study modeling and deal structure and talk to bitch headhunters on top of IB hours
lol i really dont understand why people (especially younger) are so obsessed with MF PE. Finding a good MM/LMM firm with a decent culture, WLB and path to partner is worth so much more in the long run. Look at how many people burn out after 2 years at MF and run off to a startup or CorpDev (not saying thats bad at all just saying that's the most likely path)
Preach. Or if you want the type of deal process quality and potentially some PrEsTiGe go find a former MF partner/sector head that's started their own fund and go there. Speaking from experience, you can get a lot of the relational upside with somewhat more bearable hours + better chance of seniority progression.
Large cap PE has been the worst experience of my life (not even close to a question) but boy has it opened doors for me
Can you elaborate on what doors it has opened?
Better b school and investing jobs (many diff strategies) that I previously could not have gotten.
