Centerview London
Was wondering what their reputation is like in London. I've read that they rely on the US for dealflow, but they closed some pretty big deals over the past few years (Astrazeneca and Alexion $39bn) and poached some top bankers from UBS. Everyone seems extremely intelligent and overall really nice people. But from conversations with people in London, everyone discourages going there unless you're going to be a career banker.
Even though the analyst program is 3 years, if you wanted to exit would you still have good opportunities in PE/HF? I know the US program is great in this regard, but wondering why London lacks. I feel like the learning experience is second to none and while exits have been underwhelming, I feel like it's more because of self selection. If one were to want to exit to PE or a HF, would the option still be there?
Just wondering what everyone's impression of them is in London specifically.
The option is always there to exit, as long as it’s not before 3 years. You’ll get looks from anyone. Only reason exits lack is because of self-selection as you said.
Are you currently an intern in the industry or working full time? Just curious. Also I heard a lot of HHs like Kea/Blackwood etc.. only recommend/really prioritize BB analysts. Again not sure if that's a function of self selection or if it's because they prefer them to EB candidates
Intern at CVP, though not in London. Just going off of what I’ve heard from others. I cannot speak to other EBs but at least for CVP you should be able to get great looks if you want them, even in London.
Can confirm that the best headhunters prioritise BBs (KEA even said so in a PDF presentation)
Anyone know how much they pay?
Anyone knows about recruitment process?
Have a DP interview for CVP London recruitment session (For summers). Any tips?
