CAP Associate (US)

NOTE: Our recruiting process is 100% virtual, which should help with the logistics of your candidate journey. We have transitioned to a hybrid work model, which means our associates are coming into the office 3 days a week and working from home 2 days a week . You will work directly with your manager to decide what that looks like for you.

At Capital Group, our mission is to improve people's lives through successful investing . We invest in public companies and fixed-income securities around the globe and are challenged with bringing unique perspectives and long-term thinking to our research and decision-making . The Capital Associates Program (CAP) is an opportunity for early-career individuals with diverse backgrounds and experiences to learn and contribute to this mission by gaining direct exposure to investment management.

CAP is a highly selective three-year global rotational program at Capital Group, one of the world's leading investment management firms. All majors are welcome, and a background in finance is not necessary. We'll give you the tools and hands-on experience through structured training and an ability to work with and learn from experienced investors.

CAP is based in Los Angeles, London , or Singapore. From there, rotations will take you to different offices around the world, reflecting the global nature of investing and Capital Group.

CAP offers you the chance to:

• Learn more about public market investing through a variety of assignments in investment research and related departments, while also getting a lot of responsibility early.

• Get personalized career coaching and professional development, in-house investment courses, training workshops , and CFA sponsorship.

• Challenge yourself to learn to think like an investor and demonstrate excellence and independent thinking in your qualitative and quantitative work.

• Work at a nonprofit of your choice for four months while getting paid by Capital Group.

While you don't have to stay on at Capital Group after CAP, we work with you to identify great long-term placements based on who you are, what you've learned and the needs of the business.

Undergraduate students in their final year of study (US: college seniors) and those with up to 1-year of related experience post-graduation are invited to apply. All majors are welcome: we're looking for thought leaders across all disciplines.

Applying: Please submit the following documents:

• Resume

• Instead of a cover letter, please submit your transcript (an unofficial copy is sufficient) and 1-2 paragraph answer to ONE of the following questions:

• A resume and a transcript only tell part of the story. What else should we know about you that makes you a great candidate for CAP?

• Do you have a prior interest in investing? Tell us more about that.

• What's a topic that you are passionate about? With three months and resources, how would you explore this topic?
