So...
my doubt is whether its smart for me to shift to a t1 firm in their funds team and stick around for a few years before shifting in house to a fund. My network is primarily in the funds side given my current work and brother who is a senior position in a PE Fund.
Have great references to join a T1 and im 100% sure ill get in. Dont mind putting in the work so that I can learn.
LI folks gimme your advise.
Thanks.
Stick to in-house. Very different than law firm, very difficult to get in.
