I already knew a few people that I worked with at previous employers who actually joined Ares and they gave me really positive feedback about the company. Two is the niche that Ares operates in, which is the alternative investment space. Three is the fact that Ares is a very reputable and successful operator in that space."

The Special Opportunities Group's flat culture creates an open forum for analysts to deliberate investments with senior professionals on a daily basis, lending significant exposure to upper management and valuable experience to develop a strong investing skill set."
