Warwick kids being contacted 💩
CVP fell off
Was never even remotely on… have they completed a deal since inception in london 💀💀💀
.
Any ideas on # of students contacted?
Did you get contacted?
I don't think thats a very relevant question considering the applications are available on target school jobs boards
Full disclosure I didn't see it on my uni's career platform (I've just applied now) and assumed it was some ultra-target Linkedin outreach that I wasn't prestigious enough for.
The Oxford-specific event isn’t posted on our careers portal (unless i’m missing it). Not sure about other unis
I applied last year and I never understood this.
Why do they recruit in this strange manner when so many kids will have signed contracts from the top BBs / EBs, by the time they do ACs? Do they poach talent
Bump
Bump
Got the LinkedIn message from an RG uni not listed above as a non diverse candidate but did an IB spring and multiple summer internships though have zero expectations of anything here
Was the message just inviting you to apply or some sort of fast-track?
Does CVP also open an Analyst program or do they recruit exclusively from the SA pool? Saw the listing mentioned it, but seems like the opening is only for SA
They recruit from their SA pool. I haven’t heard of them recruiting analysts outside of their SA afaik.
They do - Dartmouth reached out this year to people who had completed SAs elsewhere - believe it is done on a needs basis though so may not take place every year/at the same scale every year
Anyone been video interviewed / heard anything yet?
Not yet, Dartmouth will start screening CVs in mid-August (so like next week) and then interviews following that - they said they will finalise attendance at the event a week before it
Following
Bump, anyone heard anything?
Not yet, I imagine Dartmouth will start sifting through applications this week though
they posted it on UCL careers as well. waiting to hear back
I applied through uclcareers too but seems like some ppl were specifically reached out to :/
Heard VIs are out - any update from anyone?
Didn’t get a VI
Nothing (yet?)
got VI - they running from next Monday to Wednesday
Can confirm. DP reached out to me and my friend. We both got VIs.
You can get into process without being contacted btw if you network with people at firm (friend did last year)
looks like only people that got VI were those reached out to by DP.
fuck bristol tracker btw for posting it so all the plebeians could apply - didn't work either way
Yeah I wonder how many non-target apps they got as a result of that…
What kind of profile did one need to get contacted? (I just applied through uni careers platform).
Oxbridge/LSE/UCL/Warwick/(Imperial?)
Previous contact with Dartmouth either via events or interview processes
Previous springs at top BB/EB or incoming summers
I think when they hire they go even stricter to only LSE/Oxbridge - and they only take academic weapons with 3-5 A*s at A-level
Yeah it seems so, me and my friends (target masters) did not get the VI and were not reached out to by DP
Based on what criteria did DP reach out to candidates?
All the rest, who didn't got messaged by them, are automatically rejected?
It doesn't sound fair, does it?
meh they base it off their headhunting experience, trying to minimise the extra work they have to do whilst maximising the amount of good candidates found.
Sure they might be a future MD superstar at a tier-3 uni, but the large pool of competent candidates resides in target campuses with previous internships. Its easier to just select for the latter
ty sir
Weird mixed competition in London; you have MSc studnets and spring week undergraduates competing for more or less the same roles, but the advantages and edges of each group are different
I will keep fighting in the battlefield of SA
They hired a lot of analysts this year so SA class might also be bigger next year
Does anyone know what the networking event actually is?
Sounds like a bunch of students just crawling for attention, do they select candidates from this or is it just a formality?
I think it's fast-tracked recruiting, i.e., Apply now -> Event -> AC
