Invitation to apply to the D. E. Shaw group
Posted in Undergrad Opportunities
Posted on 2/4/2025: I wanted to reconnect to share some new student opportunities with the D. E. Shaw group . We’re now accepting applications for our New York summer 2026 internships in these areas:
- Discretionary Investing
- Strategy and Business Development
If you know any students in Department of Economics who might be interested in applying or learning more about our timeline, please pass along this email.
I’ve included more information below about which internships are currently open. Students can check out this video to see what it’s like to intern with us or visit our website to apply for any roles that interest them. We review applications on a rolling basis and plan to begin interviewing candidates early next month. I also want to note that we don’t set time limits on our offers, regardless of whether students are already in the recruiting process elsewhere.
Feel free to reach out to me with any questions, and thanks for sharing this opportunity with your network, Thomas!
