TigerFund accepts new members through a competitive application process. Across three stages, candidates are tested on their ability to build and defend an investment thesis grounded in market knowledge.
Candidates sit for an interview that tests general market knowledge, covering current events, basic financial concepts, and how candidates think about markets on the spot.
Candidates who advance are asked to build and present a stock pitch, defending a thesis in front of the team the same way a real position would be presented and stress-tested.
The final stage is a written test assessing technical and analytical skills to confirm candidates have the foundation needed to manage capital from day one.
Alumni, firms and organizations play a direct role in how TigerFund members learn, leverage and launch their careers.
