Any update?
First rounds out

Can anyone confirm this?
Ya got a PE first round invite today
Which office? and do you know if all groups sent first rounds out?
LA and no idea to be completely honest
target and approx stats?
85 attack
90 strength
40 defense
I like to PVP so my target is whichever noob I see next
can confirm as well
credit and real estate first rounds are also out
Which City?
They didn't necessarily specify. I applied for multiple cities
Good luck man it's a great firm.
are all invites out?
anybody knows how credit interviews might look like? no previous experience with credit, read a few credit primers.【】
Which office?
During my superday (doing private credit/direct lending) for Ares I got feedback and they basically told me that what differentiated me was having multiple credit pitches ready to go, and I went straight to talking about them - like they even changed the interview questions for me and basically they were super impressed, as I spoke quickly and rapid-fire on the many ideas that I had.
I also made clear that I had an extreme passion for finance, that I thought about potential investments every day, and that was what clearly differentiated me from the other candidates. Basically, stressing the fact that finance and credit were my main passions by far.
are you working at Ares right now? can you talk a little more about the internship experience/full-time experience as a junior analyst? thanks!
Anyone know what to expect with PE first round ?
diversity or target?
Target but would it matter?
I did mine recently. it was basic basic accounting technicals. nothing on LBOs so dont sweat too much on this
I’d really brush up on paper LBOs (understand the levers), MOIC, MOIC to IRR conversions. Other than that basic accounting and valuation questions.
Sounds good, thanks a lot :)
mine was 90% behaviorals, 10% basic accounting, no LBO
Anybody have any updates on New York real estate?
I had my 1st round interview today
How was it in terms of technicals?
Anyone have credit interview yet?
How many spots does Ares reserve for FT PE?
Usually holds 5-6 spots. 1 for each fund/industry vertical. 4 for ACOF (it has four verticals), 1 ASOF, 1 Energy. They’re 6 this summer, hope that helps.
So they hire more than 5-6 SAs?
Thanks for the info. When does FT recruiting begin?
Nope. They usually hire as many summers as they have spots for FT (so this year presumably 6 FT spots). I believe FT recruiting only occurs when they have an opening from one of the summers
Why is this in IB thread? lol.
Does anyone know if there's a second round or is it just straight to superday?
There’s a second round
Did you get a second round?
Anyone hear back about 2nd rounds for Credit?
credit superday out
You get a call?
email
PE second round is also out
Deleted
you mean second round?
any info as to what the case study would look like? Have heard it's paper LBO
I interviewed today, are all 2nd rounds out?
When did U find out?
What city?
any updates on credit?
did anyone do a paper LBO in the first round? (for Los Angeles PE)
Nah just a skeleton of one
wtf does that mean lol? they didn't ask you to calculate money on money multiple and irr?
Is the super day for RE out yet?
Didn't hear anything back yet for RE, interviewed on Tues
Yeah, mine was on Monday
RE super days are out
When did you hear back?
RE SUPERDAYS ARE OUT - Has anyone had theirs yet?
Any idea on what the second round for PE LA consists of? What type of case study is it? Is it an LBO case study or more of a consulting type question? Is it through video or just over the phone?
are all invites out?
what day did you interview and when did you get the email
Do you guys have any idea if these summer analyst offers translate to full-time oppurtunities? Or is it like apollo where they don't intend to convert any interns into full time at all.
also interested
Ares converts, rate isn’t as high as IB though. You also get free housing too, which is great.
what do you mean? they pay for your housing as a FT analyst?
Do you have any idea what the ballpark for the conversion rate is?
I can’t speak to other groups, but idk what all this information is about low conversion rates. Last summer (2019) all four PE interns received returns and accepted for FT...
Has HR gotten back to anyone about their credit superday schedule (with time and zoom links) yet?
Nope
Anyone receive a superday interview confirmation for Credit but not get an interview time yet?
zzzz
I think since there seems to be multiple people in the same boat we shouldn't worry
Agreed! Glad to know I'm not the only one haha.
are all second rounds for PE released?
How was your first round?
bump
Has anyone received a time for the super day?
any new updates for you guys?
I got mine for RE.
When will PE superdays come out?
did you have a second round yet?
yes according to the email second rounds are this Monday - Wednesday and superdays will be later this week or earlier next week
Does anyone know what a RE case study looks like?
Anyone hear when RE offer notifications will be sent?
are all invites for pe second round out?
Anyone hear back for PE superday after second round?
are all invites for pe second round out?
my interviewer told me would notifications would be end of week. How did urs go? Was it pretty standard LBO?
are all invites for pe second round out?
Tbh no clue - my case was based on saving a failing company which completely threw me off my game because I hadn’t dealt with one of those before. When I finally got asked LBO questions I had zero problems but the first bit got me so let’s see
Yeah got a super day invite
For which PE group?
When did you get your email?
Anyone know if ares Pe recruits in two waves? If you’re not in the process now, are u screwed? Or is there another chance
Bump for this. I just submitted my app last week and don't know if I'm too late or not.
Anyone got PE Superday invite besides the one poster above? Also, what group if you did?
What is your preference?
ACOF
Not yet... considering interviews start Friday I doubt any that have to go out will be left post tomorrow. Also don't know if they send out emails in batches or all together?
In similar situation as you, I got my second-round invite in a second wave though so maybe superdays will be the same.
PE Superdays out today or done? I thought interviews start Monday?
any updates on credit?
Like in terms of offers? The last group of superdays seemed to be today so i dont know if anyone has gotten one yet.
Did anyone finish their super day yesterday or today? If yes, can you please provide any guidance on how to best prepare for the case? (at a high level of course)
Anyone have an update on PE?
Superday next week
When did you get the invite?
Anybody hear back from the superday yet?
pe super day?
BUMP
Anyone here from credit Superday?
Probably all groups early this week
Yeah had my credit superday last week. Anyone hear back/get an offer (for credit only)?
Curious what they asked during superday? technical or behavioral?
Does anyone know when RE offers are out?
RE offers are out - I saw someone announce their offer on my LinkedIn feed.
I doubt this especially if its a 2021 summer offer why would someone announce it
The Catiline or Catilinarian Orations are a set of speeches to the Roman Senate given in 63 BC by Marcus Tullius Cicero, one of the year's consuls, accusing a senator, Lucius Sergius Catilina, of leading a plot to overthrow the Roman Senate. Most accounts of the events come from Cicero himself.
