Lifestyle, considered it for a second when leaving banking
I didn’t consider it that seriously but everything and anything was on the table at that point

It’s a sales job except you’re selling hopes and dreams instead of a product or service
A lot of recruiting firms prefer their team to have direct experience in industry. Makes them so much more relatable and able to understand and work with people on finding the right fit in terms of culture, product, size, etc.
Not to be an a** but how often do you get a call from a stupid recruiter who is just trying to fill a role and doesn’t understand your trajectory or experience. The industry experience gives them a massive leg up.
Not to mention, after banking there are many other exits besides PE 😂 and some people like having a life.
