A new analyst has joined our team and we often give them models/ slides but don’t always ask them if they know all of the accounting principles to be able to make minute adjustments to EBITDA or free cash flow. We are a FIG platform, so the knowledge required is relatively unique as well and not as easy to google as corporate transactions. Is there a better way to coach the analyst short of just throwing them in the deep end to figure it out or should we wait for them to ask us for help?

Hey everyone. I’ve been hearing a lot lately that we need 2-page resumes instead of the standard 1-page. Thoughts?

Hello everyone!
What would you choose between P&G, pwC and a small consulting firm for a data science internship. The three positions are based in Paris and in data science, I have to take a decision this week and I'm completely lost :/
I don't have any clear idea about what I would like to do after (sometimes I think about a phd but others I prefer consulting...)
Thank you so much for your help

Any thoughts on changing fields of law? I have been actively networking and trying to get a position with an admiralty and maritime law firm. This is a niche field of law and it has been really difficult to break into (almost no job postings and everyone knows each other)any suggestions?

what are the biggest red flags in a distance relationship? I would say being spotty on communication is the biggest one for me.

Reposting from HR bowl: I’ve heard there is a hiring boom, especially for L&D roles. I was let go recently from a toxic environment (removed the company from everything) after only 4 days of work. I’m actively job searching but not receiving ideal hits. I see a lot of senior level L&D roles but not as many for specialist roles, specifically in tech. I have 5.5 years of experience. Any advice for me? I’m also seeking therapy for the trauma & coping, now ready for securing that next role!

I'm leaving accounting. Wasted time and money. I'm leaving for technology. I think I'll make at least as much and I'll sure enjoy it more. Few will hire you in tech until you do a camp so there I go

Just got out of a 5 yr long term relationship. I’m just realizing how awesome the 30+ dating pool is. Everyone is established, got their shits together, no time for games, and we are treating each other like adults. I love my 30s !

Hi Fishes,
How much time will it take for the HRA to get approved by Finance team.
I have submitted the documents nearly a month back and still they are waiting for approval.

PS : Previous company used to approve/reject them by 18th of every month. Not sure whats the process in CTS.

Where did you come from? How has your onboarding experience been?

If 2+ people submit a referral on your behalf at their company for a position you recently applied for, does it make you stand out even more/increase your chances of getting an interview vs. just 1?

Till yesterday, my job status on Barclays portal was job offered. In evening, I got a mail saying congratulations on your offer & they have asked to click on the Barclays portal link and to accept the offer within 5 days, I did the same, now job status has been changed to offer accepted. But I didn't get Offer Letter via Mail. Guys, Do I need to wait for offer Letter or the one which I have accepted on portal is the same?

Anyone have any rationale for XRP’s rise in the last 72 hours? I haven’t been able to find a single article to explain the gain. Did they launch something or start a new partnership ? I did read about

Currently in ibanking as an associate and want to see if I can make the move to PE. Is the CAIA viewed favorably at all?

Has anyone here gone through corporate development recruiting? If so, would you be able to share interview case prep materials?

Went to a networking cocktails last night with LPs. For some odd reason there were quite a few young attractive women mixing it up, but who couldn’t explain what they did or where they worked.
Turns out the organizer hired models to do the rounds because otherwise “there would be too many dudes”. Maybe I’m getting old but I felt more, not less awkward and uncomfortable 🤦‍♂️

What do you all make and yoe? PE associate. 1.5 banking, 2 in PE. 125 base. 165 bonus. No carry yet. Curious what your numbers are?

Hey all, I'm at a Utah LMM/Growth Equity shop, we are looking for an Associate for a 2022 start date. Consulting or Ibanking background preferred and would love to talk to minority or women candidates

Anyone go from PE Ops to tech s&o?

Anyone have insight into working in risk management at a PE firm? Tried to search the bowl but couldn’t find much.

Honest thoughts on best qualifications to go after to break into PE from consulting - should I go after ACA/CFA/CAIA? I feel I’ve only got the patience to do one of these 😂

I have an offer for a PE Ops role and whilst comp is good it seems like they're hiring a pool of internal consultants to leverage for implementation projects within specific PortCos and therefore I won't be driving initiatives centrally - is this standard practice for Ops roles?

At this point I think I'll turn it down given I'm looking for something that operates more centrally (driving not implementing myself)

Has in cycle started or is it just the rumors?

How does investor relations comp scale at a UMM / MF? What is the progression timeline like?

Can anyone speak to the presence of impact investing across PE versus VC or HF?

For context, I’m going for my MBA next fall (targeting M7) and want to pivot into impact-focused finance but am struggling to understand which option is best. I’m going in with 3 years of tech consulting experience (data & analytics) in the financial services industry.

How much does a MF PE associate 1 and 2 get paid?

Think Apollo is at top of that list, but curious across all of them if anyone knows!

Just had my first experience interviewing with a PE ops team; case interview was lead by a junior employee who hadn't bothered to review a resume & very clearly had not been taught how to lead a case interview.

Have other PE opportunities, so second guessing if this is the right exit path. Is this typical of what to expect with the larger funds that have consulting/portfolio ops. teams? Anyone have a similar experience?

Thoughts on Bain Capital in Europe?

Aside from running your own company does LMM PE best prepare someone to run/invest in small businesses (<$10M revenue)/non traditional hockey stick growth startups Any other roles that would prep better?

Non MBB, finishing fin/acct MBA and looking to pivot into banking/pe. 10 yrs sales prior in unrelated field. 20 yrs military. MBA is non target school since military/state funded programs are free.

Any advice on where to start looking that is realistic? I'm not willing to hump 80 hours next to a 22 yr old undergrad for the same pay, but also 100% understand I'm taking a huge side step in this hopeful transition

I received an offer to join a MM growth equity fund as an Associate. What are some important things to consider about the fund (eg associate experience, etc) before joining? What about the offer (eg comp, etc)
