Chamberlain Advisors' latest #PrivateEquity "3-2-1 Talent Acquisition Newsletter" is out! ⬇️ Link in comments ⬇️ In this edition: 3️⃣ Considerations before backchanneling candidate references 3️⃣ In private equity hiring practices, backchanneling is simply part of how things get done. No matter how rigorous the interview process, someone will always pick up the phone and ask a trusted contact, “What do you know about this CFO?” But these informal conversations can introduce their own bias. It is just as easy to make a hiring mistake because someone said, “she’s great,” as it is to pass on a strong candidate because someone once had a less-than-ideal experience. Check out our 3 items to consider before basing your hiring decision on someone else’s opinion. 2️⃣ Recent PE Deals To Know In Business Services 2️⃣ ✔️ EQT Group acquires Seven Seas Water Group, a leading provider of Water-as-a-Service solutions. ✔️ Westbridge Capital acquires @Delta Marine Service to enhance its service offerings and expand operational capabilities. 1️⃣ Hiring signal to watch 1️⃣ In Q1/2025, private equity firms saw a 45% rise in deal volume compared to the previous year.

Chamberlain Advisors' latest 3-2-1 Private Equity Talent Acquisition newsletter is out! ⬇️ Link in comments ⬇️ In this edition: 3️⃣ Pitfalls to avoid in PE Hiring 3️⃣ In private equity, every executive hire is a high-stakes decision. Yet recent data from Textio reveals a troubling trend: superficial traits are too often prioritized over proven ability. This puts investment theses, timelines, and fund returns at risk. A wrong hire here does not just stall progress -- it erodes investor confidence, burns limited partner trust, and creates a ripple effect across team morale and organizational performance. Check out our 3 things to avoid. 2️⃣ Recent PE Deals To Know In Business Services 2️⃣ ✔️ DFW Capital Partners completes a majority recapitalization of Kept Companies, a national provider of mobile power washing, specialty cleaning, and facility maintenance services. ✔️ EQT Group acquires EAGLE RAILCAR SERVICES, a fully-integrated rail services facility network providing inspection, repair, and maintenance services to railcars. 1️⃣ Question To Assess A Candidate’s Skills 1️⃣ "I see that during your tenure as CFO of Company X, EBITDA margins increased from 5% to 11%. What was your specific role in that improvement? Can you break down the specific strategies or initiatives you implemented that contributed to the margin improvement?" ⬇️ Read the full newsletter & subscribe at the link in the comments ⬇️

The Chamberlain Advisors team gathered yesterday for our quarterly All Hands meeting. Looking back at the previous quarter and understanding "what happened" and "so what," and looking forward to plan "now what" is important for us to continue to provide best-in-class service to our partners and candidates. Our team meetings always end with a social event, and we took to the pottery wheel last night to test our abilities with the clay. Despite our relative lack of pottery experience or skills, it was awesome to try something new, and we realized pottery and recruiting have more in common than one would realize. Both require patience and precision, and tools and techniques matter.
