You will start with four weeks of intensive training, after which you’ll join one of our Finance teams based in New York or Whippany.

First up is our Initial Training Program (ITP) - a cross-divisional classroom training program where you’ll learn financial markets fundamentals, as well as technical and professional skills. By the end, you’ll be equipped with everything you need to know about our firm, the markets we operate in, and how your role fits in.
Once you’ve spent a few months in your role, our Continuing Learning curriculum launches, unifying and refining the concepts that you’ve learned during ITP and the practical training you’ve completed with your team.
Our Program Management Team is committed to helping you achieve your goals at Barclays. Throughout the program you will receive career guidance, continuous performance coaching and feedback to keep you on track. Your managers and colleagues will be here to support you too.
When you complete the Graduate Program, you’ll have a number of options open to you, including placement into an exciting role right here at Barclays.
We look for resourcefulness, teamwork mentality, enthusiasm and an entrepreneurial spirit, often shown through participation in extracurricular activities. A good basic knowledge of finance and financial markets is important. While not essential, it will also help if you have a major in Finance or Accounting.
