Senior here. Just sharing it’s surprising how positive interview opportunities have been. Started looking in the last two months and landed one really nice MM IB experienced analyst role where I went through the super day. They said I was overqualified and not a good fit as a result. Now interviewing for a post-MBA associate IB role. Crazy how nice opportunities can be once you start looking are. I NEVER would have guessed I’d get associate level investment banking interviews.

Currently SM at Bain (4 years post MBA) and was approached for a senior associate role in portfolio ops at a large PE fund. Been told 2.5 years to VP and another 2.5 years to director. Feels like the role is a bit junior but offers a 50% pay jump.

Thoughts on seniority? Also, any interview resources for PE portfolio roles?
