Fitch Ratings Returnship Program

Fitch Ratings Returnship Program Returning to the workforce after taking an extended break can be intimidating (read terrifying) but Fitch Ratings is making it a whole lot easier. The company, a global leader in credit ratings and research, has recently announced that its launching a 10-week, full-time paid internship for financial services professionals who are ready to get back into working after putting their careers on hold.There is an underutilized talent pool of women who, after stepping back from their career for family commitments or other personal reasons, want to get back to work and are looking for a supportive environment that sets them up for success, says Jessalynn Moro, managing director and analytical sponsor of the program.As Moro puts it, Fitchs program is so exceptional because it encourages and supports highly talented candidates who might otherwise feel intimidated or discouraged about the thought of plunging into a job search. While many companies offer return-t o-work programs for parents returning to their jobs after taking maternity leave, coming back to work after a longer hiat can be especially daunting.I am excited to help bring women back to work into the Fitch family, augmenting our capabilities as a company and expanding their career opportunities, says Moro.The program, which is called Fitch CreditPath, will run from Sept. 25 through Dec. 8, 2017 at Fitch Ratings U.S. Headquarters in New York City. Fitch has designed it so that participants will get as much out of the program as possible its customized based on participants prior work experience and is geared toward facilitating workforce re-entry in credit analysis or related fields.We welcome women back to the workforce and are committed to their successful re-entry, says Jamie Krulewitz, managing director and global head of talent, who leads the program.
