We recruit a small cohort of SCIA members who demonstrate genuine edge in capital deployment, rigorous analysis, and long-term thinking.
Our selection consists of two focused interviews.
We explore clarity of thought, intellectual curiosity, and alignment with disciplined, multi-generational capital allocation. No finance background required for this round.
Includes investment analysis, brain teasers, real-world deal scenarios, and EQR-style exercises designed to surface analytical edge and the ability to ignore market noise.
Our process is intentionally straightforward and merit-based. We welcome candidates of all backgrounds and cognitive styles. Neurodivergent applicants or those who process information differently are strongly encouraged to apply. We are happy to adapt the format if a non-traditional approach better allows you to demonstrate your capabilities.
All roles at the Associate or Analyst level are open to current SCIA members. Exceptional candidates may receive meaningful downstream carry participation and hands-on exposure to the Fund's proprietary AI CFO platform.
