There are two stages in the SVF application process

Stage 1: Application Package

Submit your application package using the form below. Applications are due by Wednesday, 1/21 at 11:59pm EST (late applications will not be accepted). Your application package should contain:

• Resumé

• ONE of the following deliverables:

  • Case study - Designed for applicants with no or introductory experience

  • One Pager Investment Pitch - Designed for applicants with intermediate experience

    • Valuation model is required (DCF with or without a full 3-statement operating model in Excel format)

    • This investment pitch should leverage selected research examples

    • Stock must have a market capitalization of $10B or lower

Recommended Resources: SEC Filings (10Ks and 10Qs), Company Investor Relations Page, Wall Street Prep, Earnings Call Transcript, Bloomberg Terminal.

Applicants choose to apply as Junior Analyst and/or Analyst based on their prior investing experience.

Junior Analysts will take part in the Junior Analyst Academy, which focuses on providing a class of undergraduates the opportunity to join the fund and participate in a semester-long training process. Analysts will be put directly into pitch teams to participate in fund wide research.

Stage 1 applicants will be invited to Stage 2 based on strength of deliverable, resumé experience, cultural fit, and time commitment expectations.

Stage 2: Interview

Covering topics such as:

• Resumé & Stock Pitch or Case Study (your application package)

• Current events

Stage 2 applicants will be accepted into SVF based on a holistic review of all application materials and interview. This includes demonstration of work ethic, research/analysis abilities, unique perspectives and skillsets, and cultural fit.

Application Materials

Stock Pitch (One-Pager)
