When do you realize carry for the first time in Pe?

If you join a fund post mba and get 25 bps of carry or whatever - when do you realize it?

So lets say you join a 12bn usd fund, and it is halfway through investing in jts latest fund. Would the first portion of carry you realize be in a couple of years when it is deployed?
