Teneo FT 2025

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you need to know about the FT recruitment process and timeline:

1. Networking and Initial Contact:

   • It's beneficial to start networking early, even before the official recruitment process begins. This can help you get "in the loop" and increase your chances of being invited to the FT processes.

2. Interview Invitations:

   • Invitations to interview can start coming in around the last week of July and into the first week of August, especially for EBs (Elite Boutiques) looking to expand their incoming analyst class.

3. Interview Rounds:

   • The process typically includes multiple rounds of interviews. For example, a common structure might be:
     • 1st Round: Phone screen with behavioral questions.
     • 2nd Round: Case study and technical questions.
     • 3rd Round: Superday with multiple interviews, often including both technical and behavioral questions.

4. Superdays:

   • Superdays are intensive interview days where you might have back-to-back interviews with various team members. These can occur shortly after the initial interview rounds.

5. Offer Decisions:

   • After the Superday, decisions are usually made relatively quickly. Some firms might give you a week to accept the offer, while others might have a more extended timeline.

6. Flexibility and Timing:

   • Interviewers are generally flexible with timing, especially if you are balancing interviews with an internship or other commitments.
