SO was contacted by a recruiter for a research analyst position at a top PE. He’s currently in consulting, doing lots of M&A dd work. The recruiter said the position pays on par with their associates, ~250k. He’s also been contacted by recruiters for smaller PEs associate roles. He’s inclined to try the former, but wanted some advice on whether this is a good route to take. Looking forward to your suggestions, thanks in advance!!
