Point72 Academy Case Study
Hi friends, haven't seen a thread about the Point72 Academy recently, so figured I would start one.
I applied for the experienced academy a few days ago and received a case study today. Very odd to me as I've never received a case study before even having an HR screen. Anyway, do we have any idea of odds of actually progressing beyond this round? It's an extremely long case study, which normally I wouldn't mind, however it seems like they send hundreds of these out and hardly anyone progresses beyond this.
Adding to the weirdness is the fact that I didn't even receive the questionnaire that a lot of people have mentioned online. The email with the case study was very curt. This makes me feel the effort is even less likely to yield results.
Thanks!
Forgive me for asking - but you're applying for the experienced Academy i.e., you are currently an IP, right? Process might differ from the student Academy then. Everyone in Student receives the questionnaire (and frankly, I've forgotten what it even entails) but I've nvr applied as an IP so things may be different
Yup, but from what I've read process is very similar (read back on old threads)
Ah well, that's what sucks about buyside recruiting - they make you do so many detailed case studies and ask for pitches, then just ghost at the last round, wasting dozens of hours. Just gotta push thru it, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
Same here. Just submitted my case. It’s actually quite an intensive project given most candidates got a day job.
It seems many ppl got case invites. Still curious about when will they get back? Timeline didn’t get mentioned much in old posts, guess primary reason is most ppl got ghosted.
I couldn’t agree more, with an existing FT job, this was impossible to complete. I’m so grateful to have a longer weekend with bank holiday so I can push it as much as I can over the weekend !
do you mind sharing what the case study is?
Yeah it honestly seems like they won't tell you unless you follow up (seemingly multiple times in some people's cases??)
Hey can I ask doing follow-up is actually okay? It seems like everything sent to P72 professionals has to go thru compliance first. Can i just send thank you letter to people who're in charge of my case study directly? Much appreciated!
did you require an employee referral to receive the case study?
Point72 doesn’t do referrals
Does anyone knows the comp for experienced hire by any chance ?
125 base
Oh that’s great, I heard that they pay out bonus as well for training period, is that true ?
did you require an employee referral to receive the case study?
Has anyone heard back on case study? I submitted on Monday of this week.
I have mine due next Tuesday, if you hear back or have a call would you be able to update me? would rlly appreciate it!
Just checking in, anyone heard back after submitting case study? I am at the 1 week mark after submitting.
Curious too... I submitted the case study 1.5wk ago but haven't heard anything back. Hopefully they're still distributing cases and didn't look at our cases yet. Is there a solid no if we don't get responses in a given time-frame?
