Anyone work in PE co investing or know someone who does? Is it difficult to exit to direct PE after going to a co investment shop for a few years after a BB IBD program?

I know someone who does but he went from direct investing to co-investing rather than the other way around. In fact I know a few people that have done this. But not sure if a direct shop would view the experience as 100% directly relevant - I think you might be able to make the move but not necessarily at the same level (i.e. Might be a step back).

Do you think it would make sense to bide some time at the co invest and then try to move over as a senior hire at a direct PE firm as opposed to trying to join as a senior associate or such?

I interviewed for KPMG on 11/15 for a Senior role and the HR emailed me on 11/16 that everyone liked me but they think I should be hired as an Experienced Associate. I had a call with the HR on 11/17 wherein we discussed about my salary expectations and the HR said he will get back in a day. It’s been more than 10 days and multiple follow ups but still no response. I don’t think I was rude while talking to the HR, I just told my current salary and asked for min. that no. Did i miss the chance ?

How do you deal with an HR that ghosts you after 3 interviews that went really well? I landed an offer at Deloitte as a sr. consultant, and then negotiated for a managerial role. I was told all interviewers were really happy with me so she would be glad to arrange a reevaluation for the new role(I was interviewed by 2 Sr. Managers & an MD for Sr. Consultant role and will have to take another round with a partner for the managerial position). I tried following up thrice after, no response.
