Our Recruitment Process

Chat & Learn
Get to know us at info sessions, coffee chats, and our recruitment events. Ask our members anything, from what New Member Education covers to how we analyze deals and how the club supports you through recruiting. It's the best way to see whether CPEC is the right fit for you.

Interview
After you apply, selected candidates are invited to interview with our members. It's our chance to get to know you beyond your resume, including how you think, what drives you, and why private equity, and your chance to meet the people you'd be working alongside.
