Depends on the fund - smaller funds are more amenable for vp, but larger funds will just put you at senior. Because they can. Usually if you have a senior promote pre mba, you can make a better case for post mba vp

Yes they would. If you were at like a really good fund with really good experience (closed a banner deal etc). You would have to go out of your way to network for those opportunities since they won’t come to wharton
