The interview process at River Road was somewhat similar to other large Asset Managers. The first round was a screen with the firm's HR team, which was fairly straight forward: the firm is based in Louisville, KY and they wanted to ensure that candidates were interested in a possible relocation to Louisville before pushing them further along in the process for the role. After the HR call, I spoke to a tenured Portfolio Manager and both of the Co-CIO's before being given the opportunity for a "Super Day", which consisted of pitching the firm's entire investment committee a stock and fielding questions about my process and analysis. The team were extremely accommodative and thorough throughout the interview process - constantly keeping me up to date with where the process stood and what potential timing / next steps looked like. The firm has a fantastic culture, which was apparent from the start, despite the interview process being completely remote due to Covid-19.

The overall process is very similar to others but the HR is extremely rude and impatient; Obviously didn't care about other people's time and effort VERY UNPROFESSIONAL Process: Phone interview with the HR, and then an interview with two associates from the company
