Invest in Your Development
State Street Corporation believes that the best way to
help you begin the transition from college to the professional
workforce is to provide specialized job training. New hire
instruction is the cornerstone of our training efforts at
State Street. Our skills training programs are designed,
developed and delivered by instructors who have many years
of business area experience and are experts in mutual fund,
pension fund or custody services operations.
New hire training, which may vary across each position,
is conducted in three phases, with a combination of formal
classroom instruction, on-the-job training and multimedia
education tools and resources.
- 5-day Core Introductory Training
Program. All new entry-level employees attend a
5-day core introductory training program designed to provide
an orientation to State Street and our business and an
overview of the securities industry.
- Job Shadowing and On-the-Job
Training. Upon completion of the core program,
employees begin job shadowing and on-the-job training.
During job shadowing, you have several resources available
to you including an on-the-job trainer to guide you through
your daily tasks, an on-the-job guidebook and/or job aids
and study guides, and several web-based courses designed
on our Discover-e Learning online training system. The
timeframe for job shadowing may vary from one week to
up to three months depending on the job assignment and
business area.
- Business Area Specific Training.
Following job shadowing and on-the-job training, employees
return to business-area-specific programs concentrating
on the operational principles necessary to perform their
job. The business specific programs vary in length from
a series of one-day modules to two full weeks of training,
depending on the job assignment and business area.
At State Street, we strive to provide a dynamic learning
environment. We utilize state-of-the-art learning technology
and media to enhance the learning process and ensure that
all employees have access to comprehensive training opportunities.
