About the program

Who's this program for

This highly selective trainee program is for recent graduates with 360 degrees of talent and vision. This job is highly demanding. If you are deterred by jet lag, the idea of getting totally hands-on, or working long hours, this program is not for you.

Your 360 experience

It’s as much a mission as it is a job. Working closely with a senior executive, you could be asked to produce a viral marketing campaign, analyze sales data, or propose a new design for a mobile app. No assignment is too big or small. You will be offered 2-3 rotations to a different office throughout the program to take advantage of our global presence.

Your career path

Once you become truly 360 (to us, that means fully versed in EF’s entrepreneurial operating style), you will earn a position within the organization that best suits your talents and skills. Positions range from team manager in Boston to business analyst in Zurich to project manager in Shanghai, and anything and anywhere in between.

"There is true respect both for the people who have ideas, as well as those who bring them to life. As a result, everyone here wants to be here and we're empowered to do the best work of our career."

Matthew, President, Signum & EF 360 Mentor
