1st Year Analyst

For the summer internship, the interview process consisted of a phone interview, with a follow up at the WoodRock offices. I was phoned directly by the founder and Managing Principal, John Dennis, and he walked me through the details of the company and how it was different than a Wall Street Investment bank. When I interviewed in the offices, I met with a few members of the company, and had longer sessions with my future boss. Everyone was eager to help answer my questions and have me start work.

Most employees have experience both in running non-investment banks, and also in the bulge bracket investment banks. They wanted to work at a company that was more efficient and enabled an easier lifestyle than those afforded to big bank employees. My experience with the company, both as a summer intern, and later as a first year analyst has been exceptional. I get to work on all phases of the project, and interact with clients and all members of the firm. I learn on the job and expected to do a lot of different tasks. It has been a great experience so far,
