one of the md's was featured in a watch magazine...apparently has a large watch collection..lol which is completely irrelevant to an analyst experience, but that's what i remember everytime i hear about cappello
it's a revolving door from what i have observed. i just checked their website and they no longer list the names of their associates or "sr" analysts. late last year i interviewed a guy who worked there sometime in 07 or 08 (can't remember). this guy had worked at 4 investment banks during his analyst career and it was unreal. additionally i don't recognize any of the MDs names except one or two from when i last looked, but then again it's been years.
you should try greif & co. in downtown LA. they have a good group of people there, at least they did 3 years ago when i was scouring the LA market. they didn't like me since i didn't have much sell-side experience at the time, but they did have an amazing office though.
you should pm monkeybusiness123, he interned over last summer, not a very strong place in terms of dealflow and exit opps, but many bankers (sr and jr) are legit, they all graduated from top schools...they just hired an ex co-head of global banking of Bear Stearns last summe...other than that you should ask him directly
thanks for the info guys.
I interviewed there for a summer position and the guys seem pretty good but I am not sure what the firm is like since their website hasnt been updated for a while.

Hi, can anyone share the experience there as a summer intern/Ft analyst please?
got a 2nd round interview with them Tuesday...
thoughts? or insight?
thanks!
Run away! They are a joke and use unpaid interns as slave labor. If that's all you can get then take it but try for something else. Know one of the partners/MDs through some other work and he is a great guy but the place is not where you want to be if you have a choice.
Can anyone give more info. Looking at their website it looks like they do a ton of deals.
any more info?
thought on them vs FocalPoint LLC?
Cappello Capital Corp? (Originally Posted: 08/01/2012)
Hey guys,
Do any of you guys know about the internship program at Cappello Capital Corp (Texas office)? I am wanting to intern their next summer (my first legit banking internship) and I was wondering if it's worth it at all.
PM me a bit more about your background and i'll try to help
Cappello Capital - LA Office (Originally Posted: 11/05/2012)
Does anybody know anything about Cappello Capital, the LA office specifically? I am looking at them for a lateral opportunity and am curious about pay, deal flow, etc.? I have searched the forums and everything is pretty old so any input would be much appreciated. Thanks!
bump, any info?

They're a pretty small boutique, work across all industries. Located in santa monica near the beach. I have a friend who worked there and said there was not a lot of deal flow (this was about 4 years ago however). They don't hire analysts straight out of undergrad but instead from other banks.
Cappello Capital Corp: Anyone know anything? (Originally Posted: 12/18/2010)
Small California shop. Was just wondering if anyone knew anything about the firm.
Annnd I've just gone and found a previous thread. nm.
I would also like to know what people think about this firm, been looking at them lately. Those other threads you mention are quite outdated tbh.
