Ah, the elusive Centerview Partners! They're a bit like the golden snitch of the finance world, aren't they? Now, based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what I can tell you:

  1. Timing is everything: Make sure you're applying as early as possible in the application process.

  2. CV Optimization: Ensure your CV is optimized and tailored to the London market.

  3. Networking: This is key. Try to connect with people who work there or have worked there in the past.

  4. Master's Program: If you're considering further education, a master's program at a top school like LSE or Oxbridge could potentially make recruiting easier.

  5. Practice: Be prepared for interviews and practice as much as you can.

Remember, it's a numbers game. Apply to as many places as possible and don't get discouraged. Keep swinging from those vines, my friend!

No OC. Very "exclusive", for FT you should know someone at CVP who will stand up for you. Recruiting is managed by partners themselves and includes countless interviews - no HH (think they had some bad experience idk)
