Hi guys,
I've been searching through the forum and I've found almost anything about GSO Capital, Blackstone's credit-oriented alternative asset manager.
Does anyone of you know something that isn't the general comment about being debt specialists... Do they take interns? How competitive it is in comparison with other groups within BX? What does an analyst/ summer analyst daily work entails? Finally, how is the London office's group?
Thanks!





well

GSO does not hire interns,
GSO does not hire interns, there is no reason for them to.
The fund manages over $20 bil and is composed of the former GSO as well as Blackstone's former distressed funds all rolled into one.
It is a good group at BX, and analysts from M&A or Restructuring sometimes transfer to GSO after 2 analyst years.
Does anyone here have any
Does anyone here have any experience @ GSO?
I'm currently a BB IBD analyst, but I've got a decent connection with one of the GSO co-founders (decent enough to land an interview at least) next year.. but I just haven't heard any first-hand opinions of the group/work.

dunno about interns
i doubt it though, they are a pretty lean operation and probably don't want to be bothered with the hassle.
I know they have been known to hire credit analysts directly out of college (often with great connections or great internships).
what johndoe2010 was talking about is more of their private investments side. like with most credit-oriented funds, they also have a public side which like most traditional HFs is probably much less structured in recruiting.
also, they recently closed their LA office.

They do NOT hire interns.
That's some value-add
