What We're Researching
We're hiring equity research professionals to evaluate initiation of coverage draft notes for a paid study. The goal of this research is to ensure financial forecasts, valuation methodologies, and accounting practices meet high analytical standards. Your insights will help us refine our financial modeling evaluation processes and identify common accounting inconsistencies in early-stage coverage reports.
How It Works
During this remote session, you will be presented with an initiation of coverage draft note for a specific asset or company. You will walk us through your process for reviewing the attached valuation methodologies and financial forecasts. We will ask you to actively identify any analytical errors, accounting inconsistencies, or gaps in the provided financial models. Finally, you will provide structural feedback on how the draft note compares to standard institutional research reports.
Who This Is For
We are looking for seasoned equity research analysts, investment analysts, and financial modeling experts who regularly produce or review coverage notes. You should have strong practical experience with valuation methodologies and deep knowledge of accounting principles. We welcome sell-side equity analysts, buy-side investment analysts, and portfolio managers who are comfortable tearing down complex financial forecasts.
