Never even heard of them lol
depends on team you're recruiting for.
Do you have insight on what to expect for their fundamental team?
applied couple days ago but haven't heard anything back
Anyone got a first round?
I submitted the written exercise recently. Has anyone heard back? Would love to hear.
same. the questions are so weird like how could you possibly calculate that probability??
Got the written exercise but havent got to it. Might ask for an extension. Talked to alums and sounds like very selective. 2 rounds after this methink. gl everyone
Anyone have any insight on what the interview for the fundamental team is like?
Can confirm that a friend (Target school) has received an offer for next summer. He had 2 rounds of interviews and received the offer 2 weeks ago.
Good for him. I know most of the buyside shops recruit quite literally on a rolling basis. P72 offers were out in May and people were still in the game in July
Yeah, I didn’t mean to insinuate that it’s over—just wanted to share a friend’s timeline
Is your friend a rising sophomore or junior?
Rising junior
Hey, I just went through the process. After the written exercise (which took me a good amount of time), someone from the company reached out after a couple days and scheduled 4 one hour interviews with different people at the firm. The interviews weren’t too formal, the first asked more about my background, the second asked a bit about the written exercise, and the third and fourth had activities for me to do for the first 15min if the interview, which we discussed afterwards. I found all the people very smart and nice. Hoped this was helpful.
Thanks Aarshk - curious what your thoughts are having met the team, there's not much out there.
I enjoyed talking to the team because they all seemed very smart but didn't take themselves too seriously. None of them seemed cut throat at all. They all seemed to be really interested in the work they're doing and to enjoy discussing ideas.
I went through the process as well. Have you heard back?
Yeah, I got an email a couple days after my last interview.

They've been done with recruiting for their summer intern class for a while now, not sure about full-time
