At what age does the jump to PE stop making sense? I.e., if you’re a manager at your consulting firm (4-6 yrs in) and you switch to PE are you usually starting at the same analyst position that you would have started at if you left 1-2 years in?

I seriously doubt they’d take you. There is almost no skill overlap unless you were in some deals related area. They want to train people 2 or so years out of undergrad.

You’re not suggesting PE firms engage in employment discrimination on the prohibited basis of age, are you?

Out of curiosity is the track / comp there significantly different you think than on the pure FS side of it?

Money wise it always makes sense.

Practically, you will either get to do it 2yrs out of school and join the investment team, or as a senior principal/partner as part of the portfolio mgmt group. Everything is possible, but these are the two main entry points

2 years out of school is perfect.

I know a few people from OW that made the jump at EM - they got in at the Associate (post-MBA) level

Any parents who are still on the safe side with Covid? We have a 1 year old and being safe and staying mostly home is really getting to me. Most of our friends have kids who are able to mask up or are vaccinated and it’s getting quite isolating. Especially now mask mandates are being lifted feeling like we can’t go anywhere without risking our kid.

Had an FET transfer and just got the news that the pregnancy test is negative. Feeling very defeated about it. All my labs are good (AMH 3.1) and the embryos were PGA tested. Have only two left now, and this was the best quality one. The irony is I did feel pregnant couple days after transfer but then I stopped feeling pregnant. I read that some women don’t really “feel” pregnant until 6-7 weeks… but i did “feel” then stopped. It just sucks. If you have any advice for coping, I’d appreciate it.
