Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't specific information about the CapVest interview process or Excel modeling test for the London office in the provided context. However, if you're preparing for such tests, it's generally recommended to focus on:

  1. Excel Proficiency: Be comfortable with financial modeling, including DCF, LBO, and Comps analysis.
  2. Case Studies: Practice case studies that test your ability to analyze financial data and make investment recommendations.
  3. Industry Knowledge: Understand the private equity landscape, especially in London, and be ready to discuss relevant deals or trends.

If you're looking for resources, the Private Equity Master Package or the Modeling & Valuation Bootcamp offered by WSO could be highly beneficial for preparation. These courses cover LBO modeling, PE deal processes, and advanced Excel techniques.
