yes, if you understand downside risk you can easily transfer that toward development and acq. I started out in capital markets but went over to the acquisitions side and has definitely helped me understand distressed deals and how to look at possible structures/buyouts.

 

People can have their preferences for working on the equity vs. debt side!

 

This is for London but I work at a close competitor of Apollo's RE debt team, and have met some people who work for them. It seems the culture is a bit more hardworking (they were talking about quite late finishes while as my hours for doing virtually the same thing were more relaxed) than some other firms. They also have more appetite for risk, I see Apollo  often makes big ticket loans for quite risky projects, so I imagine the payoffs can be good if things work out. 

 

You will hear back when you hear back. Checking these threads does nothing to dampen your anxiety. In general, for any job, when they like you they let you know quite quickly. In my experience, when firms like you they let you know within a week that they want to see you again. If it’s been two plus weeks since last contact don’t get your hopes up.

Also, loved the comment someone said that like there was a snowballs chance in hell someone would say no to Apollo based on comments in the thread lol.

 

Just wanted to follow up and see if anyone has heard back
