What you’ll do day-to-day
You’ll take on projects that require rigorous analytical thinking and creative problem solving. You might help enhance various communication efforts, conduct prospect- and investor-focused research, participate in brainstorming sessions with colleagues, or attend meetings with investors.
Who we’re looking for
- We’re interested in highly accomplished students with demonstrated intellectual curiosity and keen analytical skills.
- We seek individuals who excel at taking a structured and detailed approach to solving problems, communicate effectively, can drive projects forward, and have exceptional attention to detail.
- Applicants should demonstrate a client-focused approach and be able to work independently and as part of a team.
- Candidates who are interested in learning more about corporate strategy, capital markets, or the economy typically thrive in this role. Experience or involvement with clubs or internships related to consulting, venture capital, economic research, or product management/strategy is a plus but not required.
- We welcome applicants currently enrolled in a bachelor's or graduate degree program across all fields of study. No previous finance experience is necessary. Students who apply to this internship are usually approaching their final year of full-time study.
At the D. E. Shaw group, we believe the diversity of our employees is core to our strength and success. We are committed to supporting our people in work and in life, which is why we offer benefits such as a family planning and surrogacy program and a charitable gift match to all full-time employees.
Additionally, our staff-led affinity groups are pillars of our community, helping to celebrate diversity, promote leadership and development opportunities, and facilitate inclusive mentorship. Members and allies organize a wide range of educational and social programming, from expert talks to film festivals.
