Career Resources
Based on the WSO Dataset, transitioning from a specialized group like REGL at a mid-BB to a UMM PE firm focused on corporate PE can be challenging but not impossible. Here are some strategies you might consider:
Networking: Start building connections within the industry. Reach out to alumni, use LinkedIn, and attend industry events. Networking can often lead to opportunities that aren't advertised publicly.
Lateral Move within IB: If possible, try to lateral to a more generalist role within your current bank or another institution. A position in M&A, for instance, would give you broader exposure and make your profile more attractive to corporate PE firms.
Skill Enhancement: Continue to hone your financial modeling and valuation skills. Consider enrolling in courses that enhance your understanding of corporate finance and private equity.
Recruiters and Headhunters: Get in touch with recruiters who specialize in private equity placements. They can provide valuable insights and help you navigate the recruitment landscape for PE roles.
Consider Smaller Funds: While UMM PE firms are highly competitive, don't overlook opportunities at smaller or emerging funds where you might get more hands-on experience and responsibility.
Remember, each move should be strategic and align with your long-term career goals.
