I applied online. I interviewed at Point72 (New York, NY) in July 2024
Interview
Applied for Point72 Academy for Experienced Professionals. Was given a gigantic case study (full model and 5-page IC write-up on publicly traded company from scratch in Excel with many quarters of fully hardcoded financials) before even having an initial phone screen. Put a ton of thought, effort, research, and at least 50+ hours of work into it over a 1-2 week period. I know I did a great job and that my analysis was thoughtful and thorough. Got an automated template rejection email a week later. Followed up with the recruiter and didn't even get a response. Don't waste your time with these people. Completely disrespectful and unprofessional.
spoke with two biz dev people and one PM. biz dev people asked basic interview questions about prior deals I worked on and why I want to be in the industry. PM talked through stock pitches with me.
Interview process was straightforward and professional. It included an initial screening, followed by conversations focused on background, fit, and relevant skills. The interviewers were generally prepared and asked practical questions related to the role. Overall, the process was organized, though timelines and communication may vary depending on the team.
