+2 Would argue standard PE is a pretty bad early seat to develop investing acumen. Associate 2 in PE - LBOs
+2 My PM has been underperforming in my market for the past 2 years now. I’ve been covering the market for the past year. The previous analyst under him left due to anxiety and was underperforming as well. chimpychimp123
+2 The obsession with this EB/BB stuff is so funny because one of my close family friends is a senior MD at a firm this forum considers a EB, and he had no idea what that term meant; instead just called the bank a boutique ba Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
+2 I met my partner in Colombia and have a good income in USD but I only took her out on basics first few dates (because I'm not spending a lot on someone I barely know), and we actually live in Colombia (I didn't take her ba Manager in CorpStrat

+2 We actually evaluated based on merit this year Associate 1 in IB - Cov
+2 I don't work there. You made an incorrect statement and became very defensive about it and misdirected when it was pointed out. You are now upset because of that and resorting to ad hominem on an anonymous internet forum. Intern in IB - Gen
+2 Get high quality training first and teach yourself to grind, lots of things you can go into from banking, not the same from pe. Unless u are extremely passionate about pe investing then I would choose Bb banking. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+2 The happiest people at the bank are those just coasting with jobs lined up. You get paid street bonuses (at least everyone I know is) at the junior levels for working less than peers at other banks. Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
+2 Hot Since 82  MonekyTradingMoney
+2 Strange, your CV is 10/10. I am based in the US though and only studied in Europe for 1 year, so I might be missing some nuances here. Analyst 1 in IB - DCM
+2 Few years? No just an internship or two during the summer/gap year.  adrien3

+2 Tbh not sure, I'm not heavy into recruiting, let alone knowing who is/isn't nep but IMO it breaks down like this. Recruiter in CorpStrat
+2 deanbluntinstitute
+2 You would have to go to IB first, which is a pretty roundabout way to get there and probably 4-5 years from today to be in a PE seat. If you're getting final rounds I would keep at it, you are close. Associate 3 in IB-M&A
+2 It goes both ways, but based on your post point of view, I do agree it will become harder. It now becomes do we take the DEI kid or do we take the clients kid. Associate 1 in PE - Growth
+2 Certainty equivalent analysis works of course (also same fundamental principles as the rest), though in our case there is little embedded "operational" optionality value in the cash flow (not like a drug going through tria Associate 2 in PE - LBOs
+2 Prospect in IB - Gen Associate 1 in Private Credit
+2 I would pick imperial as its a low target/semi target the MSc finance course and your able to extend to 1.5 year from what I have seen so you may be able to extend your time recruiting.HEC Lausanne for London is a non targ huhhghhbbgghhh
+2 This is some really good info, appreciate it. Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
+2 Dauphine is a strong target more for markets but not for IB in general. You'll have to grind more than the likes of hec or escp for London IB.  adrien3
+2 jklsnwklanf
+2 And I’m still telling you the better PMs find a way. Analyst 1 in HF - EquityHedge
+2 beside, he went to HLS on top of completing 53 other degrees and still can't put an issue and ask in 3 sentences without losing the essence because again, what the fuck is this shit GS under Blankfein
+2 If you make a transition to product (finance), make sure you actually care about the product or you will get fucking bored. It's pretty much investor relations with some critical business responsibilities. Greenspan's Panties

+2 Come to think of it, I haven’t heard back from him since before Covid… Investment Analyst in VC

+2 Some of the asset management firms have "quant equity research" which might fit the bill. Macro funds also do a lot of mixed stuff. usernameladiesman217
+2 Kind of hard to take you seriously as a potential candidate to transition to the industry if you can't even be bothered to look up and understand a common industry metric that is relatively easy to understand.  Investment Analyst in HF - Macro
+2 Honestly agree. Same with these weird creepy OSG Asians. Both Canadians and OSG has backed EVR. I go to HYP and tons of people didn’t even get interviews with stellar profiles. Intern in IB-M&A
+2 AI slop ContangoMan
+2 This is absolutely correct. Associate 2 in IB - Cov
+2 Yes you'll definitely have options if you can get into a better group, but think getting there is going to be a challenge in this market... Associate 3 in IB-M&A
+2 Absolutely useless comment Intern in IB-M&A

+2 First of all, Warwick Econ is very strong, so you should definitely consider going there. Lorderic
+2 I don't agree the question. It makes sense for anyone to pursue a career in anything if they're early in their career and/or have the relevant experience. PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀
+2 VCs tend to have much lower budgets than PE firms and even hedge funds for anything related to diligence or data. VP in PE - LBOs

+2 It was a while ago now, but had offers from both.  surfsup34
+2 $200 - $235 is fairly standard Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
+2 Awesome! You don't have to convince me that the US is a great place to live. On a lot of metrics it is the best country to live in. GBily
+2 Yes, I am an underwriter. We do have a separate originations team that focuses on sponsor stuff, but everyone is expected to originate, and its part of the KPIs at year end. Director in Private Credit
+2 Going to PJT/EVR/HL/LAZ RX. To me, RX is more interesting than most M&A groups and the analyst experience is top notch. Intern in IB - Restr
+2 what will his average comp be over 6 years? if it's $300k, then it's $150k after taxes, 401k, and insurance in NYC. he'll need about $100k to live on. so it's like $50k per year of savings or $300k over 6y. Kevin25
+2 In tech consulting. Absolutely hating it. Business School in CorpStrat
+2 Everyone is saying index funds perform better, but that’s only part of the picture. Try getting personal leverage to invest in anything outside RE, good luck. Associate 2 in PE - LBOs
+2 Lazard more than doubled my salary so they can be whatever they want IRRcentric
+2 Don’t bother these losers aren’t cut out. This is how they whine and complain when they can’t do basic work right and get called out. Associate 1 in IB-M&A
+2 It’s tough to Gauge… Associate 1 in IB-M&A
+2 Have you ever thought that every group is different culturally and some people have good experiences at UBS in different groups than your own? Analyst 2 in IB - Gen

+2 classic BYU statement  Mike_wacczowski76
+2 Just joined the strategy, special projects & transformation team for the tech/data division of a large corporate. Our division does around $5bn in revenue and is by far the most M&A driven. [email protected]
+2 Fair, I know it's vague that's why I'm trying to get more info! We've had no updates about when placement will happen unfortunately. fsdiphknsadihfasf
+2 This is not true - virtually every single Canadian SA over the last few cycles received a return. I only remember one Women's Program pipeline intern from back in 2022 not receiving it because she was awful Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+2 In that case, the return structure seems generally in the range of what I would expect. Multif@mily4Life
+2 Associate 3 in PE - OtherL42 looks super cool on paper but has no return history and is like 6 months old. Should not be on list…. At least yet VP in Research - FI
+2 I am really curious what people come up here with advice as I struggle with this as well. You can divide this problem in to two: Vp in PERE
+2 Doing okay there, pal? sasha_j24
+2 It depends on your risk tolerance and long term goals. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+2 How do people view Walleye these days? Pro: AUM growth from $4-5B to $10-12B (depending on the source) in 3-4 years. Performance similar to Citadel last year (as per BBG). Investment Analyst in HF - EquityHedge
+2 USAA's RE investment management arm acquired the balance of Square Mile back in 2021, then they rebranded to Affinius after a management buyout from USAA a couple years ago. Ricky_GiveEmTheHeater
+2 Im going to PJT/EVR lmao. The focus on RX prestige is odd to me because each of the top shops will provide solid programs for analysts + be generally supportive of recruiting and exits. Intern in IB - Restr
+2 Yeah and when I win the powerball I’ll be a billionaire  Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+2 wow this is great thanks!! Prospect in IB-M&A
+2 I had my 2nd round with them almost 2 weeks ago. Process seems to be extremely slow. desertrose
+2 The other comments are misleading. The internal project management process at a PE firm doesn’t really matter. You are asking the wrong question.  Analyst 3+ in IB - Cov
+2 This. I was a CS major and didn't particularly enjoy it. I ended up at a more business-adjacent role anyways and am using 0 of what I learned in college. Prospect in IB-M&A
+2 Definitely don’t have enough Mamdani threads.  CRE
+2 I think you should take it. Sounds like you already did. You seem like someone who’s a go-getter. Most people wouldn’t start the conversation. Analyst 3+ in IB - Cov
+2 This is an easy one: do the right thing by reaching out to the former manager to ask if a prospective employer may reach out for a reference (he'll be flattered and will of course say yes). valueaddbro
+2 this is a pointless post lmao there is zero downside to this. RX is RX. I've seen a kid at a tier 4 shop lateral into a tier1/tier2 Rx seat after 1 year ft from a low semi target background . Intern in IB - Cov
+2 Rabbit
+2 I am in Europe so salaries will automatically be lower here haha. I am a portfolio manager for a global US company, that operates in a completely unrelated industry. GreatCreamy
+2 Agree with this. Right now every job opening is flooded with thousands of applications and recruiters are being extra judicious. Go over them and reach out to the hiring manager. Determined
+2 I started twerking in Times Square and this IB MILF gave me an offer I couldn't refuse. Isaiah_53_5 💎🙌💎🙌💎
+2 Which group? Associate 2 in IB - Cov
+2 Is SA at your fund just a third year associate or is it the post associate / post b school / VP title? Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
+2 It's certainly not coming from some chud second year analyst aligning logos all day KoolAidManOHHHHHYEAHHHH
+2 Do you want the diversity internship served on a silver platter, sir? Analyst 2 in PE - LBOs
+2 credit research at junior levels is more intellectually satisfying than IB. Any other role where you do analysis + analytical writing could also be considered (ER or macro teams). GS under Blankfein
+2 IMO you can go out more aggressive. What are you proposing on cost overruns--pari passu 90/10 or something else? That is one of the most critical business terms on a development capital term sheet. westcoastq
+2 BARC to the moon, let’s go Venkat Murphy_1827
+2 Ive looked in to this and see that this situation is potentially background noise to Rezolve's overall success. InTheCookyJar
