Not a chance during on-cycle, even if you're the strongest candidate on the west coast. This is all just due to how early the process has been and probably will continue to be.
The process was so early that this year that most headhunters were caught off-guard and could not accommodate bi-coastal candidates.
Off-cycle is probably a different story.
“Impossible” is too strong of a word - I know kids who have done it in the past couple years (mostly from Moelis LA/GS (LA and SF)/MS (LA and SF). But you have to fly redeye the night before interviews. There is also no feasible way to do both west coast and east coast on cycle, so most candidates stay west coast given the number of strong PE firms out there.
Very easy to recruit from NY to the west coast, because all the big places will send full interview teams to NYC.
If it's easy to recruit for west coast from NYC, since most top west coat shops will send a full team to the east coast to interview, why can't a west coast kid fly to NYC and recruit for both coasts from NYC just like a kid based in NYC can?
Yeah fair actually. Just kind of weird to fly all the way to NYC to interview with LGP or TPG - you have a bit of an advantage with those places if you’re local i think
