REPE ON-CYCLE MEGATHREAD

Hello -

Would like any insight on which SPECIFIC firms participated in REPE on-cycle last summer. Additionally, any other details would be greatly appreciated (exact dates, interview details, general advice)

Thanks for your time!

 

Ahoy there!

Based on the most helpful WSO content, let's dive into the specifics of REPE on-cycle recruiting from last summer. Here's a treasure trove of information for you:

  1. Firms Participating in On-Cycle Recruiting: The firms known to have participated in the on-cycle recruiting process include some big names such as Carlyle, TPG (Capital/Growth), KKR, Bain Capital, Apollo (Hybrid value?), Apax, AEA, Veritas, Warburg, BC Partners, and Maple capital. These firms represent a significant portion of the industry, offering a wide range of opportunities for aspiring REPE professionals.

  2. Timing and Process: While the exact dates for each firm's on-cycle process might vary and are not explicitly detailed in the WSO threads, the general trend in previous years has been for on-cycle recruiting to kick off around late summer to early fall. For instance, in 2019, the process started in late August. However, due to the impact of COVID-19, there was speculation about whether firms would delay their processes slightly. It's always wise to keep an ear to the ground and network with professionals and headhunters to get the most current information.

  3. Interview Details and General Advice: The interview process for REPE positions can be rigorous, often involving multiple rounds that test both technical skills (such as financial modeling and deal analysis) and behavioral fit. To stand out, ensure you're well-versed in financial analysis, understand the specific strategies and markets the firm operates in, and can articulate your passion for real estate investing. Networking, as always, plays a crucial role in getting your foot in the door, so don't underestimate the power of reaching out to alumni, attending industry events, and connecting with professionals on LinkedIn.

Remember, preparation is key. Brush up on your technical skills, stay informed about the industry, and practice your interviewing techniques. And of course, keep an eye on the WSO forums for the latest gossip and insights from your fellow monkeys.

Best of luck on your REPE on-cycle recruiting journey! If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to swing by again.
