I had a phone screen with HR on September 30, 2024. I next passed the Excel test and had subsequent, back-to-back interviews with members of the Asset Management team. One interviewer did not turn on their camera and seemed dismissive of my candidacy from the beginning. They implied, for instance, that my master’s degree in real estate was an irrelevant qualification because it was obtained through a newly established, part-time program (it was a full-time program at a prestigious university). That interview took place on October 10. On November 13, more than a full month later, HR emailed me asking if I’d be interested in another position, this time in Operations—they passed me up for the first role without explicitly saying so until I asked. Regardless, I expressed interest, and they conducted two more interviews with me during the week of November 25. The main interviewer in this round did most of the talking and informed me that they’d have a decision before Christmas. I did not hear from them again until January 6, 2025, after emailing them (twice) for an update. HR responded tersely, saying that they had found another candidate and provided no additional feedback. Any job candidate conducting themselves with a similar lack of engagement would be disqualified in short order. It’s a shame that even rudimentary professionalism is not the standard at this company. Update: After posting this review, JBG Smith responded with a generic, copy-paste statement that they’ve used for other negative reviews. Their response does not address my specific concerns, which reinforces my experience of their hiring process being impersonal and dismissive. Candidates should be aware that feedback may not be taken seriously here.

4 round interview process with a superday. First interview is a screen. Second and third are technical. Will meet with a combination of analysts, associates, and VP. Final round involves in person interviews.
