Morningstar Development Program

It's a two-year career development program created to put you on the fast track to a high-profile, high-energy job at Morningstar. During the program, you will have the opportunity to rotate and experience different positions within the company. You will have the opportunity to work in our Advisor Software, Data, Research, and/or International business groups.

Past participants have transitioned into roles in investment analysis, client management, and project management to name a few.

Morningstar offers the opportunity for career growth; a stimulating work atmosphere; little corporate hierarchy; an open floor plan that promotes teamwork and sharing; great, interesting people; Morningstar social events; and a fun, unique culture.

We're looking for motivated students with an outstanding academic record, a passion for investing, strong communication and writing skills, exceptional analytical skills, creativity, and an interesting background. We hire students across all majors.

As we continue to innovate, we’re always looking for more great people. We need the best minds to create our growing line of software, Web sites, consulting services, and publications. We think Morningstar is a great place to work. If you’re the type of person who just can’t settle for the status quo, you may think so too.
