Hi,
I graduated 4 months back and have since gotten a job at a family developer (~90 employees) as an acquisition/financial analyst. I want to get a position at Oaktree Capital Management (or a similar company) as an analyst/associate in their RE group.
How should I go about doing this?
Thanks!
Most of their associates are brought on after 1 or 2 years as an Investment Banking Analyst at a bulge bracket bank or having completed a top MBA program.
So I probably have a better shot at an analyst position then in the short term? I was thinking of just reaching out to alumni that work their and start expanding my network and after a year at this current job try and push for a position with them?
There are no analyst positions at OCM.
I've been told I have no shot at getting places too... turned out they were wrong. Murder it for the family office, start talking to people at Oaktree and similar shops now to figure out what sort of skillset you'll need. Develop a network with them, but also with the brokers, lenders, partners, and lawyers you use in your deals. After you murder it at the development shop for two years, have a talk with them and tell them what you want to do (some shops will fire you for saying things like this, but more and more companies are becoming more helpful - it's not the 80's anymore). They'll make calls and put you in touch with the right people. Use your lawyer/broker network to call in and recommend you. Make sure you know everything and more about your position/job now by the time you apply.
Thanks for the advice.
I'll do my best to kill it here and start broadening my network. Hopefully I can PM you in 2 years with good news!
