REPE Summer 2027 recruiting
Hi all, rising junior from big-southern non target currently interning at a small-ish GP shop focused on value-add and opportunistic deals. I'm really enjoying acquisitions so far, much more than I did development last summer, and I think I can see myself in a PE or debt fund for at least the near future in terms of internships and full time position. I was wondering what the timelines looked like and where to find out what funds take interns and analysts as I know that is still a relatively new practice. I am hoping to go to an UMM/MF in NYC, however, I understand that is a long shot for anyone so I wanted to really just get an idea of how to get into institutional acquisitions or debt out of school.
Some PE shops have opened by now, Blackstone and Starwood off the top of mind usually recruit pretty early.
If you want to work in REPE scope out the PERE 100/200 and look on their sites for summer openings/reach out to people at the firm and ask for opportunities.
Thanks for the response and I'm definitely targeting the shops you're talking about. I always kinda wrote Starwood, Blackstone, and KKR off at least for my analyst stint since I don't go to a Harvard or Wharton type school. I know Ares opens in august and so does AEW, but is there any consistency to it or is it really just shop by shop and you gotta track all of them individually.
Try this link, I think it’s an internship tracker for North America.

Worth noting that there are off-market roles that won’t be on this list and you should still reach out/network with any firm you are genuinely interested in.
Didn’t Ares already close apps?
