Want to move into mid market buyout with no investing experience.
Got offered a VP role at a fund that is okay. Is it better to take it and pivot after 1-2 years or continue recruiting?

Take it, highly unlikely to get a VP role with no investing experience. Don’t know how you pulled that off.

That seems highly unlikely unless you had previous investing experience. If true, would definitely take it if you’re even slightly interested in jumping to PE because it’s very very rare

Feel free to DM and I can share thoughts on firm. Impressive landing investment team VP role with no prior investing experience

Happy to also share thoughts on firm.

Agree. Were you a DTEM? Smaller fund? Specific sector and/or experience?

Just wondering/thinking of the potential situation

Moving on from Hotels (Hospitality)?

I’ve been thinking about this for awhile now, but it is very to commit to actually accept a new job offer since I really do love my job. My only complaint is, the pay vs workload is very small. I’m a manager now and my property offered me a director position… but the salary is still low! To make six figures, it’ll take another 5-6 years to grind it out.

Should I move on and go to a different industry? Opinions are welcome! Thanks in advance.

I was recently laid off from my job of 4 months as an HRBP. I have 5 years of solid HR experience with a Masters in HR as well. I am currently working on my I/O Psychology Masters! I have been applying for jobs through LinkedIn/Indeed and thought to also network on this platform. If you have any leads that can help me that would be great! I am preferably looking for another HRBP role in the Chicagoland area that is remote. I am open to the hybrid model as well. Thank you!

PS. I'm a BE Chemical Engineering, and no MBA.
