Leadership Development Programs Financial Services & Insurance

What is a Leadership Development / Rotational Program? 

They are programs that allow entry-level employees to gain experience at the company, either through an in-depth targeted area or by rotating between different divisions. They will typically last anywhere from 12-18 months to 2-3 years. These programs provide ongoing mentorship with the goals of offering a full-time job after completion and developing the next generation of leaders. 

When are they open and who is eligible? 

Companies typically recruit undergraduate seniors for these programs in the fall semester. Each program has different timelines, lengths of programs, divisions available, formats of rotations, and specific areas available. Note: There are programs for graduate students, including many for MBAs. This list is primarily focused on opportunities for undergraduates. 

What will I do be doing in the program? 

Each company will have different functional areas of rotation based on industry and business need. Common job functions and divisions include engineering, technology, sales, finance, HR, marketing, supply chain, merchandising, etc. If you are interested in a specific function (e.g. marketing) do not just look at the Communication/Marketing/Media industry list. Consider other industries as they may have a marketing program or rotation. 

It is important to note that this is not an exhaustive list and this information can change at any time at the employer’s discretion. Links take you to the company’s entry-level/undergraduate opportunities career page or directly to information on the program.  Please check Handshake and the company’s website frequently to set up job alerts and stay up to date.
