What Private Equity Professionals Do

Private equity associates and analysts evaluate, acquire, and manage companies. The work spans deal sourcing, financial modeling (LBOs), due diligence, portfolio company operations, and investor relations.

PE recruiting is notoriously competitive, on-cycle processes at megafunds (Blackstone, KKR, Apollo) can happen just months into your banking analyst role. Understanding the timeline, the headhunter ecosystem, and what firms actually test for is critical.

How to Prepare for PE Interviews

1

Master the Paper LBO

You must be able to build an LBO from scratch in 10 minutes on paper. Know sources & uses, debt schedules, and how to calculate IRR and MOIC.

2

Prepare Your Deal Discussion

Have a 60-second walkthrough of a deal you worked on. Explain your role, the thesis, the valuation, and what you'd do differently.

3

Know the Headhunter Landscape

CPI, Henkel, SG Partners, Ratio, and Amity control access to megafund roles. Understand their process and timeline.

4

Understand Fund Strategy

Know the difference between megafund, upper-middle-market, and lower-middle-market, and why each might be right for you.
