Starting a thread for LionTree 2027 Summer Analyst (SA) positions is a great idea! Here are some key points to consider and discuss:

  1. Recruitment Timeline: Based on previous WSO threads, LionTree typically posts job openings on career sites of target schools. If you're from a non-target school, networking early is crucial to get on their radar.

  2. Competitiveness: LionTree is highly regarded in the TMT (Technology, Media, and Telecom) space, often compared to firms like Evercore, Qatalyst, and Raine. Breaking in can be challenging, especially from a non-target school, so strong networking and a polished application are essential.

  3. Culture: Past discussions on WSO highlight LionTree's boutique culture, which is often described as entrepreneurial and tight-knit. This can be a great fit for those who thrive in smaller, more collaborative environments.

  4. Exit Opportunities: LionTree analysts have been known to secure strong exits into private equity, venture capital, and corporate development roles, particularly in the TMT sector.

  5. Preparation: If you're aiming for an internship, focus on mastering technicals (DCF, M&A, LBO, etc.) and behavioral questions. WSO's financial modeling courses and interview prep resources can be invaluable.
