I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Ares Management (Los Angeles, CA) in Oct 2019
Interview
Two rounds of phone interviews followed by a superday onsite. Both phone interviews were not overly difficult or technical, but the superday was extremely technical and consisted of over 5 hours of interviews. There was an excel test, a case study, a review of the case study, and 5+ individual interviews.

Question 1
Walk me through a deal you've worked on in detail.
Two rounds of phone interviews and then a super day. The first two rounds were mostly informational and straightforward. The super day was a mix of technicals and culture, each interview was about 30 minutes.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Ares Management
Interview
I applied and interviewed for a NON investment role. I went through 8 interviews, completed a case study, and went in person to interview again. I waited 3 weeks to hear from the very very slow recruiter that I did not get the job. They were very uncommunicative and did provide me any feedback.
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ares Management (Denver, CO) in July 2024
Interview
It was a lot of behavioral questions and asking what you knew about the company. My interviewer was very nice and it seemed like a flowy conversation. No technical questions but this was the first round.
