I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ares Management (Philadelphia, PA) in Oct 2023
Interview
Great process overall, very behavioral and people who were easy to talk to. It was two rounds and both were pretty similar and included mostly behavioral questions and other specifics about the company and position.

There were two behavioral interviews where they asked typical behavioral questions. The process was quick and organized. There may have been another stage in the process that I did not reach.

I applied online. I interviewed at Ares Management (New York, NY) in Mar 2025
Interview
3 rounds of interviews, then an onsite super day that I was not selected for. The questions were mainly about my experience, along with behavioral questions. Everyone was really nice but I was confused as to why they lead me on and made it seem like I was going to receive the offer.
