Sandbrook Capital
Anyone heard anything about Sandbrook? WLB? Comp? Any insights into their recruitment specifically the model test? Apparently 4 hours long but have no other information.

Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't specific information about Sandbrook Capital's recruitment process or model test in the provided knowledge base. However, for a 4-hour modeling test, it's generally advisable to prepare for a comprehensive exercise, such as building a financial model from scratch (e.g., LBO, DCF, or other relevant models depending on the firm's focus).
Key tips: 1. Practice under time constraints: Ensure you can build models efficiently without relying on templates. 2. Understand qualitative aspects: Be ready to explain your assumptions and provide insights, such as sensitivity analyses or key takeaways. 3. Prepare for additional tasks: Some firms include qualitative tasks like creating slides or answering strategic questions.
If you need more tailored advice, consider exploring WSO's Private Equity Interview Prep resources or their modeling bootcamps for detailed guidance.

Bumping. Did you end up going through their process or does anyone else have insight into the group and process?
They have a brutal process with some of the unfriendliest people I’ve ever met
Sounds right - bunch of partners from riverstone who put up below median returns over multiple funds
Got a friend who is midlevel there (Sr Assoc/VP) and gets absolutely smoked on hours. 80+ all the time, no exceptions. To be fair, deal flow and comp are good, but the expectations for availability round the clock even when nothing is live are apparently kinda absurd.
Doesn't help that the office is in Stamford (in-person 3 days a week). Apparently one of the partners has a house in CT and wants to work near home, so everyone else has to commute out there. Juniors are pushing for a NYC office but no luck yet.
Sounds brutal, but could be a good stint for a 2 yr period or so. Seems to be a decent firm.
Smart people with good relationships putting money behind quality assets. I think they'll see good returns from their first two funds. As with everything else in finance, there are lifestyle trade-offs, but if you can put up with the grind you'll be rewarded and probably learn a lot.
any insight if this includes travel given they’re based in Stamford? Trying to understand the dynamic there
