Would VC/PE headhunters look at someone with 2 years consulting exp and a 3.4 gpa from a target? How long does it take for them to respond to cold emails, if at all?

Where did you consult?

I’ve actually seen a lot of folks jump with 2-3 total years of consulting experience to PE. They should be reaching out to you - and are generally responsive if you do shoot them a note! OP, which firm are you at now? I think that might be more what they’re screening on vs. GPA/school.

Doubtful

Only about 50% of PE firms look at consultants. Two years is at the later end of what they look for. Assuming you’re not MBB, it would be tough.

GPA / school are less important.
