As we seek to become the most successful investment team in the world, our investment teams create portfolios of equity securities through collaboration with portfolio managers, analysts, associates and traders. Our Investment Associates (IAs) focus on a small number of stocks and learn everything they can about those companies. They build and maintain detailed financial models; work with data sources to build their insight into company fundamentals; and perform many other forms of primary and analytical research to help their team understand each company as thoroughly as possible.

 ​

As a participant in our internship summer program, you will experience first-hand long-short equities investing from the inside of one of the world’s most preeminent hedge funds.

Over the summer, we will offer training focused on key Associate building blocks – basic financial modeling, dissecting a company’s future business prospects, and distinguishing between good and bad businesses, and attractive and unattractive investment opportunities, among other areas. It will also provide extensive exposure to Citadel’s best-in-class infrastructure, allowing participants to understand how the right technology investing applications and risk management systems help drive repeatable investing process and best in class performance.​

Citadel provides high-quality early-career entry through structured internships and named programs across investing, quant, and engineering, but access is highly selective and not designed for mass graduate hiring. Citadel is clearer than many finance employers on interview format in key tracks and offers strong on-the-job learning, yet pay transparency and published early-career outcomes are limited.
