Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Lazard Asset Management.
Analyst
There were two interviews total, starting with an analyst and then moving on to an MD. It was pretty standard, they wanted to see if I was interested in investing and asked me to pitch some long and short ideas. That was pretty much it.
- Can you tell me what animal best describes you?
Analyst
You'll go through 6 rounds of interviews with seniors and regional heads. The main focus will be on your personality and integrity within the team. We'll discuss your previous experience, academics, and hobbies. The questions aren't overly difficult.
- What do you like to do in your free time?
Summer Analyst
The process was pretty standard. Two people interviewed me for on-campus recruiting at the same time, and it was a 30-minute interview. I applied through on-campus recruiting during winter break and got notified of an interview a couple of weeks before it actually happened. It took a while for them to formally tell me I got rejected, but by then I already knew.
- What stock would you like to pitch and can you defend it?
- Can you elaborate on the stock pitch competition you did at school?
