# Altshuler Shaham jobs: how to apply and who to ask > What Altshuler Shaham does, how applying to it actually works, what is not published about its hiring process, and how to reach a person inside the firm. Facts checked on 2 September 2026 - Industry: Investment management - HQ: Tel Aviv - Careers page: https://careers.topmatch.co.il/AltshulerShaham/ - Referral programme: Unknown - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/altshuler-shaham - Website: https://www.as-invest.co.il --- ## What Altshuler Shaham does Altshuler Shaham is an Israeli investment house in asset management — pension funds, provident and study funds, mutual funds and portfolio management — which in recent years has expanded into adjacent areas including non-bank credit (checked 2 September 2026). [Its careers page](https://www.as-invest.co.il/about/%D7%A7%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%99%D7%A8%D7%94/) publishes two offices: Tel Aviv, at 19a HaBarzel Street in Ramat HaHayal, and Haifa, at 5 Sapir Street. What gets hired here falls into three rough groups: investment and professional roles (portfolio managers, analysts, economists), pension marketing and sales roles, and operations, service and corporate roles including information systems. A good share of these are regulated by the Capital Market Authority and the Securities Authority, and therefore require licences or a commitment to obtain them. ## How hiring at Altshuler Shaham works The careers page on the company's site is short and points outward: **applications are made by sending a resume** through an external jobs portal the company links to (checked 2 September 2026). Roles are also posted on LinkedIn and the Israeli job boards. **Process stages: not published.** There is no page describing the screening stages, the number of interviews, or how long it takes. **Employee referral program: not published.** **Students and cadet programs: not published.** There is no dedicated page for a student track or a cadet scheme. If one exists, it surfaces through the postings themselves. What is published is the tone: the careers page says the firm sees its employees as partners, and talks about "excellence combined with teamwork and humanity". ## Why applying through the form is not enough An investment house is a relatively small organisation with a lot of narrow professional roles, and that changes the arithmetic. When a whole department is ten people, there is no recruiter sitting on this role all day — there is a manager who needs somebody, and a resume pool they open when they have time. A general resume submission into an external portal is precisely the format that gets stored and not read. That is the difference we wrote about in [the post on referrals](/en/blog/how-to-ask-for-a-referral/): a referral does not skip interviews and does not guarantee a reply — it changes the channel your resume arrives through. [A 2015 paper in the Quarterly Journal of Economics](https://academic.oup.com/qje/article-abstract/130/2/805/2331590) found referred applicants are hired at a higher rate even when their skills look similar. In Israeli finance, where nearly everyone has passed through the same handful of firms, the odds you already know somebody there are unusually good. ## The right way to apply to Altshuler Shaham 1. **Find the exact role** in the jobs portal and keep its title. A general submission with no role attached is almost always wasted. 2. **Tailor the resume to it.** For investment roles — the instruments, markets and models you have actually worked on; for pension marketing — the licences you hold or are working toward. 3. **Find one person inside.** A LinkedIn search on Altshuler Shaham plus the role title, and whoever from your degree or your previous firm works there now. 4. **One short message:** who you are, which job, two pieces of evidence that you fit, and one request to pass your resume inside. 5. **One reminder** after five to seven days, then the next person. Apply through the portal in parallel. Tagishoti covers these steps: it finds roles that fit you, tailors a resume to each, uses your connected LinkedIn account to identify who at the firm could put you forward, and drafts the message. Nothing is sent until you approve it, and nobody promises it will be answered. ## FAQ: jobs at Altshuler Shaham ### How do you apply to Altshuler Shaham?
