Did anyone leave to a m&a role outside of banking from fdd?
Currently in FDD and I realize now this and probably banking are not my interests. Is it possible to jump to pe portfolio ops or a role that can lead their?
I have a little bit less than 1 yoe in FDD, and have a masters in analytics. ( Though I'm kind of stale with analytics.

You could probably jump to corp dev. You will still do quite a bit of qoe work, but depending on the place you might be able to be more involved operationally in the business.

But just to keep in mind that operational aspects might be peripheral to your job. Like the place I had an offer at brought on someone from McKinsey that was only doing ops work and I was going to be helping out a little, but mostly I was going to be focusing on the financial modeling and qoe work.

Do recruiters and Hiring Managers actually review and read resumes? Also tech companies that sell SaaS, what is it with the requirements of having 10 years or more if technical sales experience?

The company hasn’t had any new sales either. Start up CEO’s… be realistic or seek enough funding to operate.
