Greenhill's advice: AI in the application process

At Greenhill, we actively welcome applications from students of all backgrounds — across geographies, cultures, and ways of thinking. We recognise that many applicants may use AI tools to research companies or gather ideas, and we fully support using whatever helps you work efficiently.

However, the written responses in your application are your opportunity to show your individual interest in Greenhill — in your own words. We want to understand who you are, what motivates you to apply to Greenhill, and why you believe this opportunity is the right fit for you. Successful applicants will be invited to in-person assessment centres, where we’ll explore your motivations and understanding of the firm further in-person. So, it’s important that what you submit genuinely reflects your thoughts, enthusiasm, and potential.

As a result, please avoid using AI tools to generate your answers as we will be actively screening for this. What we’re looking for is originality, insight, and a true sense of your personality, motivation and aptitude.

Use your own voice. Be specific. Show us why you and Greenhill could be a great match.
