As a manager, what level role would you take at different types of firms ? Just got a director offer at a $200-300M PE portfolio company, but feel like that’s not senior enough.

It’s a director role within a portco - recruiter reached out

Director is the normal level for a manager leaving for a portco.

That’s what I’ve heard too. Dir is normal unless you have massive industry expertise in a portco. OP curious - how did you go about getting the interview with PE? Is it investment team or portfolio ops?

Hello everyone,

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.
