Upon the successful completion of the Academy, you’ll have the opportunity to interview for an equity research analyst role at Point72, where you’ll work closely with your portfolio manager and team to develop a deep understanding of companies across industries and around the world. Through fundamental research and financial analysis, you’ll seek to see change before it happens and turn those insights into actionable investment ideas. You can apply your financial acumen and curiosity to help shape your team’s investment strategies as you:

• Develop sophisticated financial models to help you understand the businesses you cover and how they are changing.
• Perform fundamental research, attend industry events, interact with sell-side research analysts and sales professionals, and analyze compliant data sets.
• Continually develop your skills through coaching from your portfolio manager and by using the full breadth of the professional development resources available to you.
• Apply your ever-growing knowledge base to identifying and opining on key market debates that drive stock prices.
• Creatively research questions subject to the firm's compliance policies and procedures.
• Recognize variant views versus the market.
• Conduct yourself with the highest levels of professionalism, integrity, and ethics.

WHO SHOULD APPLY:

• Superior analytical skills, demonstrated through work experience and/or graduate education in fields such as finance, law, philosophy, economics, history, political science, journalism, humanities, or liberal arts.
• The ability and ambition to learn quickly, as we prepare you to join a Long/Short Equity investing team as a research analyst.
• A demonstrated passion for problem-solving, regardless of discipline.
