1. 1ApplicationTypicalOnline application with resume. Networking often decides who is read closely.
2. 2Online assessmentTypicalSome platforms use timed tests or a take home pitch or model early.
3. 3Phone screenTypicalOne call, 20 to 30 minutes, fit plus a few technical questions.
4. 4First roundTypicalAn analyst or portfolio manager: your story, a stock pitch, and how you think about risk.
5. 5Final roundTypicalSeveral interviews with portfolio managers, sometimes a case or model on a company you are given.

Timing between stages shows on each program page once students report it. Firms change formats by year and office; the firm's own invite is the final word.

What it tends to weighTypical of a multimanager platform

• Platforms of this kind run many independent teams with tight risk limits, so drawdowns and sizing come up often.
• Pitches framed around catalysts in weeks or months, often hedged against the market or the sector.
• Fit with one portfolio manager's team, since analysts often join a specific team.
