Recruiting into Asc/SAsc roles from MBA

Hi,

I'm a first year student at HBS that did PE pre-MBA. I know the market is tough for people to get VP roles. Do you think funds would be receptive if I said I was OK taking another Asc/SAsc role? I don't want to come off as weird but I'd also rather be at a fund I like 'lower down' on the role ladder than at a fund I dislike as a VP.

Thanks!
