Fisher Futures: The Best & the Brightest
The Fisher Futures Program
The students who have been accepted into the Fisher Futures Investment Banking Program at The Ohio State University are among the brightest of our finance majors who have demonstrated an intense desire to work in the investment banking industry.
The Fisher Futures program is an initiative that was designed to identify high ability finance majors with an interest in investment banking. The students must meet a set of academic criteria in order to apply and then go through a 6-month selection process that includes:
- Writing an essay about their interest in investment banking
- A personal interview with a panel of Fisher staff
- An assignment designed to showcase their analytical abilities
- Reading four books about the industry and writing a summary reflection on each
- Completing the Deal Maven, web-based financial modeling certification process
- Doing informational interviews and attending presentations designed to increase their knowledge about the industry
After successfully completing these tasks, a final interview will determine if the student is selected into the program. Once a part of the Fisher Futures Investment Banking Program, the students are coached by Fisher staff to successfully compete for a summer internship in the industry.
Why Recruit Interns Using Fisher Futures?
Prospectus
You wouldn't make a financial investment decision without first pouring over the prospectus and doing your research. Why should hiring an intern be any different? Fisher Futures provides you with students who have been pre-screened to determine their work ethic, commitment to the investment banking industry, ability to learn quickly and their analytical skills.
Ratings
The relative quality of most traded bonds can be judged from bond ratings. Fisher Futures provides you with a rating mechanism-students complete a competitive selection process which identifies them as one of the top 10% of students from one of the nation's top business schools.
Expected Return
Expected returns are the average of possible returns weighted by their probabilities. Fisher Futures takes the guesswork out of searching for interns and increases the probability of high ROI.
The Fisher Futures Program Works
"The Fisher Futures program works because it identifies, through a rigorous screening process, top candidates who can succeed in the New York investment industry. I was very impressed with the caliber of the students I interviewed."
