Diversity and Inclusion

WHERE WE ARE RECRUITING

On Campus Recruiting

This year Alphataraxia will be recruiting exclusively on campus at select universities. We do not accept applications outside of the listed schools. We will only be seeking to fill full time positions.

If you are a student at one of the schools we visit and having difficulties with your school's career site, you may email us. Please use your school email address.

At Alphataraxia, we believe that an inclusive, positive environment empowers us to do our best work.

Every team member is hired with consideration not only for their analytical strength, but also for their unique perspective, experience, and character. We know the success of our firm is grounded in maintaining a comfortable and respectful workplace.

Inclusive environments inspire confidence in all employees, leading to better ideas generation and more fluid operations

Diverse teams are privy to many more perspectives and styles of working that allow each specialty to empower the business

Bringing diverse voices can help us glean insight into fostering new ways of thinking and innovating around old & new problems

We are a small team and thus our relationships and daily actions define our culture. We put in continual effort to maintain a respectful, supportive, and anti-racist workplace. Our Diversity Working Group is responsible for maintaining, assessing, and improving the inclusivity of recruiting events, interviews, and our workplace culture.
