What are good exit options for a third year IB associate or first year VP? Been in IB since Analyst. Never bothered with PE but assume too late for that. Is corporate the only option at this point? Just wondering

I’d like to know too

Sorry I’m not even in the industry but anecdotally I’ve seen people move at the VP level into a fund. It’s not usually MF or UMM but it’s still PE work

Following, I like to know.

I’ve gotten a decent amount of recruiting emails for more senior Corp Dev roles, mostly at sponsor backed companies. Also had a former VP move to a brand new LMM PE fund where I believe he had a prior relationship with one of the founders. But interested to hear what others have done beyond that

And at what level/title usually?

Additional Posts in Investment Banking - IBD

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
