Balyasny Catalyst
Balyasny just announced this brand-new program, would love to hear initial thoughts. It's supposed to be more "hands-on" than the other buyside programs, but the description basically just matches CAP and sorta P72 Academy.

Career Resources
Still leaving out early career switchers ffs
Internship with PM, then 9 mo program and 2 rotations at end. Interesting but also similar to others. Probably not as rigorous as p72. Wonder when they are starting?
First class will be the current sophomore class, so summer 2027.
Kinda seems like it was built out of the logic from Baly’s old sub unit that hired college grads as associates for the larger structure.
Another large MM seems to be building out a similar thing since the head of that unit has shifted and is building out a similar platform to what they had at Baly, on top of the already existing graduate program for L/S.
Will is leading it, so Bridger guy yeah
.
Not gna PM but familiar w some of the details. Big franchise being built out, gonna run different to most pods
Is there anything like this for MBA students wanting to switch careers? Are all of these programs (P72, Citadel, and BAM) set up specifically for undergrads?
bump
how to get an interview?
Anyone know what the process looks like?
Following
did anyone hear back
Not yet but in case you hear back or know anyone, please let me know
well seems like I might be the least knowledgeable on the process. pretty fucked in that case if no calls yet right
Heard of one person who has had a screener call so far, wondering if others have had them too.
Multiple offers have been handed out, intended small class size
If you’ve done the case DM me
How would people stack this up vs the other grad schemes? Obviously new so probably docked there, but benefits of small class size and seeming firm momentum? Super quick to desk as well.
Pretty close to getting offer but struck out at P/C, unsure if I should take this vs banking.

Investing a lot in jr talent, good results last couple of years
What are you talking about.. if you are set on HF, would take unless top IB. It's basically their Bridger program (9 months-> placement on pod), which skips IB/ER. Obviously, less optionality, but its not "new" by any measure and solid IMO
