Knew someone who went to a SWF after PE...career sort of fizzled afterwards.
Can you give any more detail about how it fizzled and why you think that happened?
Couldn't transition back to PE again so his options were basically another SWF, banking or a PE/HF allocator. I think this will depend on what your role is at the SWF.
Interesting this job would be cradle to grave real estate investment.
So this SWF does all direct investments? If so, mtnmmnn 's point below is moot.
Combination of both direct investments and joint ventures with partners on value-add / development deals.
