I have a phone screening with District Capital Partners coming up and wondering if anyone had any info. I couldn't find much information and anything would be much appreciated.

any update on your phone screening?
ghosted
They're good but a lot of the work they do is more in line with what a TAS group does, ie, outsourced diligence for PE sponsors that largely do their own financial work.
That said they've got great clients and you can see that their previous employees have done well for themselves. If I had to guess their hours are probably way lighter and less hectic than your typical sell-side M&A group.
Correct. Only do buy-side advisory, but they're great to work with. Most of their management has CD backgrounds versus sell-side chops so it's much different than your typical M&A / sell-side shop.
That said, they have a really strong core competency / niche that they excel at and if you are going to join a boutique that is precisely what you want. Don't have to be on the leaderboard for every league table in existence you've just got to have at least one specific core competency that you crush in.
If you get ghosted after phone screening is it worth trying to network more?
Has anyone heard anything about where they are in the process?
Heard from a solid source they at three returned ZERO interns this year out of 5 quality candidates. I would stay away from this firm at all costs
.
Really crazy how a VP hedge funder made an account just to comment this on a thread about a boutique investment bank no one outside of those who have interned there have ever heard of lmfao cut it out already kid
Echoing the above - they returned zero of their interns. Please stay away.
^^^ 0 deal flow firm, returned no interns. Stay away
they gave 0 return offers?
.
Why did you make an entire new account to say this?
What is the recruiting Timeline?
How does DCP compare to other boutiques in the DC area? Like KippsDeSanto?
Also, what are exit opps/where do you think you can get if you did your summer with them, and re recruited for FT?
