We don't hire post MBAs unless we are best buds.
You could also become best friends with KKR1
It’s definitely not that attractive compared to pre-MBA IB exit oops Your career isn’t pigeon-holed into IB, but it’s tough to get into buy-side roles at big PE funds/hedge funds, etc...I think going to corp strat/startups/more traditional consulting exit ops is very doable though
Right, I’ve heard it would be extremely tough to get into a PE megafund or top hedgefund. But I’d be content in exiting into a not top tier fund, mostly to gain the experience and network necessary in hopes of starting my own fund one day
Get into HBS
I can't give you a lot of details, but i know that people take that job for the exit ops. IB retention rate is probably lower than post MBA consulting
There’s a few articles on wso and mergersandinquisitions about this. Short answer: it is very tough to go to the PE firms you are envisioning
@KKR while you’re here, wanna give a young consultant any advice on how best to navigate the road to a fund like KKR?
@KKR ok fair. Would I need to be in PE pre-mba to have a shot? Or is mck+hbs enough
You have a shot with Mck+HBS. It just depends on your Mck experience. Do you have PE/VC clients? You really need the exposure before you get in.
