London is a great choice for carving a private equity career. It will give you life experience that you perhaps won’t get anywhere else. There is a reason the city is called hotbed for private equity investments (think, City of London, Canary Wharf).

You have access to top Bulge Brackets, Elite Boutiques and PE firms, and plentiful opportunities to network.

Importantly, London is more open-minded toward candidates without prior Investment Banking Division or pre-MBA PE experience; something that is rare to find in the USPE industry.

That said, courting a job at a private equity shop in Londonis no walk in the park.
