Industrial Placement Programme
The Industrial Placement Programme is available in Finance, HR, Operations, Prime Brokerage and Technology and varies in length. The programme provides classroom and on-the-job training as well as valuable work experience. Recruits will be working alongside experienced colleagues on real projects and will gain exposure to all levels of professionals within the respective division. You will receive regular mentoring and coaching, as well as regular evaluation reviews to ensure your career is on track throughout your time with us and you continue to be developed along the way.

Insight Programmes
We also run a Spring Insight Programme which is designed for those of you who have just embarked on your University degree and wish to get an insight into the different areas that make up Morgan Stanley prior to qualifying for a summer internship the following year. The programme is a great opportunity for you to experience our working environment and culture and explore the type of work you could be doing if you joined as an intern during  or an analyst after graduation. The programme usually takes place between March and April every year.

Requirements
In addition to the common requirements of numerical, interpersonal, communication and team working skills, graduates should focus on developing their negotiation, networking and entrepreneurial skills. Additionally, given today’s globalisation in the marketplace some divisions have demand for graduates with fluency in a number of foreign languages.
