巴克莱电信和媒体(CMG)小组用于PE招聘?

My questions/TLDR: 1) how important is group really forPErecruiting- this group gets less M&A mandates than being on every capital raise ever lol, but how important is M&A deal experience vs general/ capital markets experience for traditionalMF/UMMPErecruiting? It's a good group and all but less M&A activity than I hoped for compared toEBSorJPMC&M. There were some recent hires and the group is going through the biggest changes in several years (due to how busy it was during covid and poaching seniors from other banks, but no one can tell how that will play out). Am I overthinking my potential prospects?I chose the group because of culture knowing it would at minimum give me a 'floor' of good experience, but I may have overshot my expectations on M&A deals. I might have a shot to still exit at 99% of places based on historicals (knowing many opt for Corp dev and the group usually exits to someMF/ UMMs in the past/recently, but can't tell if those are one-offs and if they were lucky with staffings) but not sure what I'm supposed to do to "compensate" (or am I thinking about it wrong?). If for staffings luck plays into who gets on M&A and who doesn't and that dictates placements I will be pretty disappointed.To be fair with myself, I have better intuitive and critical technical / investing knowledge and thinking is as good / better than most (I'm from a target in the right investing groups and have done lots ofPE建模 /案例访谈ETC)。我并不担心在采访中表现良好,但首先要接受采访的更多信息。在小组中完成实习,这很棒,我喜欢这种文化,几乎每个人都很容易获得。在大多数情况下,实际上都喜欢(到处都是Tryhard或三个,但仍然可以相处得很好)。我绝对可以看到自己在那里工作了两年,并享受与团队中的人在一起的时间。因此,除非有物质上的差异,否则我宁愿不要切换小组或银行 - 此外,我很可能不会成为小组中的“最佳”分析师(谁知道事情会在6个月 - 年内如何摆脱)。我加入了小组,知道他们在兴奋后的忙碌之后认为这将等同于并购活动的增加,而不仅仅是媒体和电信领域的大型现任资本筹集的资金,但是SPAC繁荣以及一些投球似乎使它看起来像它不再是曾经的生活方式群体。此外,他们似乎在空间中的大合并中筹集资金,而不是顾问,即使他们在墓碑IDK上被列出,如果仅仅是因为他们在融资上并扔了骨头。情况?我如何最好地将自己的镜头定位为好MF/UMM funds? Disclaimer I appreciate my position and all, but I don't want to see worse outcomes for myself compared to people who were clearly much further behind investing-knowledge wise in school or just process monkeys (e.g. good grades / can put in lots of hours but not that smart). I know whatPElifestyle / work is like from friends (just as if not more than IB) so I know it's a better fit and want to do the best for myself. Really appreciate your advice.

What are perceived disadvantages if I were to get less than expected M&A experience, for recruiting with classicPE公司和重要的一般“小组血统”是或不是,您如何找到CMG组Barclaysknowing it's on most cap raises but much fewer large M&A mandates as the EB's /JPM(尽管仍然有一些,但人员配备可能是随机的,并且无法获得太多的经验) - 例如,对ATT Warner或ATT Verizon vs vs是合并的实际财务顾问。

M&A experience is more relevant and so will shine through better in interviews (it is more directly relevant work experience). But BarCap is a good bank so you can get UMM orMF采访原本好的简历,以及HHS的一个好故事,说明为什么他们应该向您展示他们的客户并建议您采访您。

This is honestly great life advice in general.

A few M&A deals Barclays CMG served as advisor on recently:

- 罗杰斯(Rogers)260亿美元收购肖通信

- Inmarsat $7.3 billion sale to Viasat

- 探照灯合作伙伴收购亚当户外

These transactions took place in the last year. It is shocking how little you know about the caliber of the group you joined and even more shocking that they decided to hire you. You sound very entitled. Be thankful you got a job one of the best banks on Wall Street. And I promise you, you are not as good as you think you are. The scrappy kid from the non-target school who takes nothing for granted will wipe the floor with you. It amazes me how uninformed the people onWSOare.

您将从所有的看来MFsand UMMs. All it takes is one deal on your resume to impress.
