Does anyone know if CPP investments has recruited for summer 2025 (Toronto)? I saw the job posting go up and I believe it closed on July 17. Have they started sending out interviews?
Is anyone in the current process?

Just don't be a straight, white male, and you'll be fine. Hope this helps!
That's the CPP core demographic lol. Nice try, maybe have a stronger application next time.
Let's see if you find that "core demographic" in their intern class:

Congratulations, you found a picture on LinkedIn. Now do all the investing teams.
I get it, rejection sucks. Look inwards as to how to strengthen your application next time.
I actually had to double take because some of the faces looked familiar. I remember meeting some of these kids and I'd be salty too if I had to compete with that kind of resume. Good luck on your continued victimhood, easier to hide behind that than accept mediocrity.
Congrats on your CPP exit - remember to get your WSO flair changed for future posts!
It takes a 2 min LinkedIn search for anyone to see exactly what intern is talking about, may as well just bite the bullet and embrace it at this point.
Can we stop the "straight, white males are the only ones affected by DEI" scam? Everyone who is not a woman, black/latino or LGBTQ is negatively impacted by DEI initiatives - this includes white males but it's not just them

Sorry to hear about your rejection

I heard a friend last year said he knew someone that was turned down because "he didn't fall under their DEI initiative". Not saying its the reason straight white men can't get interviews and let alone offers, though it definitely does not help.
Can confirm a strong candidate was turned down to make space for another who's a female to get the desired ratio. Of course that's probably not what was told but anyone that knew, knew what it was about.
any updates?
I heard they did first rounds last week. Assuming if you haven’t heard back yet, you probably won’t at all (I’m in the same boat too).
