What Do Megfund Classes Look Like Across the Street?
Hey guys, I was just interested to know if anyone knows what previous year's incoming associate classes at megafund pe shops (ie Blackstone, KKR, TPG, Carlyle, Bain Cap, Apollo, etc.) have looked like in terms of where those who are coming in spent their 2 years prior to pe. If anyone has any breakdowns I think it'd be very interesting for people to see that are still in college.
A lot of firms will list out their associates with short bios attached. For example, see:

Some won't do this, but it's a good place to start.
Thanks, I appreciate it. I've seen this on Silverlake's website before, but it seems the vast majority of major pe funds don't list this. That's why I'm trying to see if anyone else might have first-hand knowledge that isn't readily available.

go to google and type "site:linkedin.com KKR/whatever associate"
I recommend going into private browsing mode/signing out unless you want them to potentially see you creeping on their profile

Wow, this guy went to a nontarget (U of Wisconsin), started out at GS, and is now at Silver Lake.
Practically everyone else went to Wharton, apparently.
its not about the school that you went to, but the inner qualities you possess as an individual.
only those who are incompetent blame their educational background and look down upon people who go to a lower ranking school than they do.
just be yourself.
Because there's totally no correlation between going to Wharton and kids who are driven and interested in finance...
You're right in that the school that you go to doesn't determine who you are, but it otherwise matters a whole lot.
