Very rare to jump directly to investment roles at reputable shops in the US. The only jumps I’ve seen are due to family connections. You could however exit to a smaller shop and work your way to a bigger one.

In the US it’s very uncommon, although you do see it happen mainly in the lower middle market in non major investment banking markets. Think Atlanta, Minneapolis. Canada / UK, happens semi frequently
