Millennium Management Long / Short Interview

Hi all,

I will be beginning the process with Millennium Management soon. This will be for an equity long / short team. I'm currently in banking, went to a target, and fortunately have some time to prepare. I know a pitch on several ideas is probably to be expected, and I will sound intelligent about the industry / macroeconomic events via research.

Can anyone who has experience with them or knows someone who does, speak to the nature of the process? What is the best use of my time to position myself favorably? I have not gone through a HF interview before. I really appreciate any insight.

Thanks.

Hedge Fund LinkedIn Review

“My meeting with Kevin Lee was super helpful and went well beyond what I originally expected. We met to discuss my LinkedIn profile, but the conversation also covered the hedge fund space and how I’m thinking about my career as a whole. I really appreciated being able to talk about both how I present myself professionally and the broader direction I want to take. As someone interested in hedge funds but also exploring other paths in finance, it was helpful to have a conversation that connected my profile to my actual interests and goals. Kevin gave me a lot to think about, and I left feeling clearer about my next steps. Overall, I really appreciated his time and willingness to go beyond the original purpose of our meeting.”

Hedge Fund Mock Interview

“He was very responsive and prepared for the meeting. He actually read the JD, resume, and looked up linkedin which sometimes other mentors doesn't actually go over those to prepare things beforehand. I appreciate his direct comments I think it saved time and actually helped me to know exactly where to improve. I also appreciated him admitting if he doesn't know about specific HF strategy. Only thing I'd suggest for him is probably sending actionable key takeaways after the meeting because other mentors did and that was very helpful. ”
