Depends on what you're optimizing for.

Money: mf PE is hard to beat
Hours/wlb: there are people with technical backgrounds who get pm roles
Impact: gates foundation is a lot of people's top target
There are other sick exits which people create for themselves (Grammy award winners, mayors of small towns in Indiana, exits to top vcs)

Im curious why everyone want to go PE at the end? Why not HF?

Hedge fund seems like more of a finance exit, PE makes more sense for consulting. Whether ops or investment team after doing DDs. There’s no work in consulting that prepares you for HF

Looking for a constructive way to view my most recent interview experience. For context, I’m a recent design graduate w/ 2.5 years of experience & looking to get into footwear design.
