Got an interview for a equity analyst job, which I don't have the experience required
Long/short equity fund with $1 billion AUM. In the job description, it clearly stated 3 year experience in tier 1 institution on buy side or sell side needed, which I don't have. How would I convince them I am still capable of the job? My background is MBA, CFA level III candidate and few years experience in corporate finance. Many thanks!
nail all the technicals. have some stocks that you could pitch (max 3)
This^^^. Be able to logically explain how you would value a company, have a clear and concise ST/LT economic outlook, good & bad investments that have worked out for you (and what you learned), etc.
I just got a FI analyst position and this is pretty much what I was asked. As well as financial statement type technical questions. Good luck!!
The experience requirement is nothing more than a screening mechanism for resumes. You have not pulled the woll over their eyes - they are fully aware and decided to interview you because they believe that in lieu of the 3 years yada yada yada, your experience is adequate enough to do the job. Therefore, I wouldn't say you are at as big of a disadvantage as you think you are going in - just treat it like any other job interview: be likeable, prepared and collected.
I just wrote a post about preparing for an investment management interview:
