1st Year Analyst

• First-Year Analyst responsibilities include financial analysis and modeling of various transactions, including mergers and acquisition, public offerings and private placements of debt and equity securities. First-Year Analysts also prepare presentation materials and assist in “due diligence” efforts on behalf of our clients. First-Year Analysts typically work on multiple deal teams with two or three senior bankers on each transaction.
• The analyst program represents an excellent opportunity to learn about the various aspects of investment banking and merchant banking. Applicants should realize the nature of the program requires a time commitment far beyond a typical 40-hour workweek. Accordingly, analysts are well compensated relative to alternative entry-level positions in accounting and finance.
• Upon completing the two-year Corporate Finance program, many analysts decide to further their formal business education at the top MBA programs in the country. Former Stephens’ analysts have been accepted to schools such as Wharton, Stanford, Columbia, Berkeley, Texas, and Virginia. In addition, based upon their individual performance some analysts will be promoted to an Senior Analyst position upon completing the two-year program.
• Perform other tasks as assigned by management.

Bachelor’s degree (B.A.) or equivalent from a four-year college or university with outstanding academic achievement. Completed two semesters of accounting. Intimate knowledge of both financial statements and financial valuation techniques. Previous work experience in finance preferred.
