A headhunting firm reached out to you or someone from HR?
Hudson = Lone Star Funds. They just have the “manager” under a separate name
Not sure about comp but given size of their funds it should be good. However, if internal HR is reaching out cold about a position... that usually means they are having difficulties filling a position and need to generate demand for it (eg you weren’t considering a job there, but now you are because someone reached out).
Head hunter
Analyst position? I feel like that’s posted every 6-8 months with them.
Either way it will be respected. I spoke to an analyst there a few years ago who seemed to like it. Would be considered an exit op.
I was told Sr. Analyst, but analyst nonetheless. Thank you!
Was this for the Dallas office?
No, NYC
Hudson and Lone Star are both owned by John Grayken (2nd richest PE guy after Schwarzman). Lone Star employees are mostly deal originators, platform/regional heads and their #2, senior lawyers & global AM. So mostly MDs. Hudson is used for everything else like UW and AM.
CRE team is focused on distressed (flagship fund of $5B) and value add investments (new fund of $760M). US CRE team is currently currently growing (they're currently looking for 2 analysts and 1 VP in their acquisition team).
It's a megafund so the hours are banking 2.0
Thank you, this was extremely helpful.. Any idea what can be expected for an analyst interview besides a standard modeling test?
I'm not familiar with their tests/cases but you should expect a lot of fit interviews with the team.
How do you know so much about the company? Kind of sounds like you’re an employee promoting the gig
Edit: After I made this comment, the anon VP edited his/her comments to be less specific and then I got MS if that tells you anything
If he actually works at the firm, even better. Really not much info out there about them when compared to other Mega Funds.
How do I apply to those roles? Which headhunter do they use?
If you want to PM me I can relay.. don’t want to say the firm / head hunter I spoke with on a public post.
Anyone have insight into comp at the analyst and associate level at Hudson/Lone Star?
