1st year TMT analyst top 3 BB. With headhunters having started reaching out recently, am I the only person who doesn't want to do PE recruiting given it's going to be banking 2.0? I'm more interested in corp dev but given the unstructured process for those jobs it seems like it'd be bad to rely on a good corp dev opportunity coming around. Thoughts?

So don’t do it…
Do your DD on corp dev. Lifestyle often sucks there too. Would encourage you to do your two years at PE too.
Curious to see why you push so hard for PE rather than jumping straight into corp dev. Do you think the skill set you gain is crucial?
The money and branding with the marginal delta in hours between PE and corp dev not being worth the pay cut imo
Growth/VC or bust
Agreed, also in TMT at BB and not looking to do the typical PE path. GE / VC / CorpDev seem like interesting paths to go down.
Likely won't be going through this on-cycle PE process and just spending time learning more.
