If you’re asking this question then probably not. Sorry bub

Yes. Through recruiters and your network.

Well…it depends 😂 what kind of work do you do? If it is just strategy then probably both are out of reach. If you have a deep industry or niche knowledge , than pe ops is definitely an option. The deal team is very unlikely, unless it’s a very small fund and you start from there
