Build your foundation
Equity Research Trainees are actively completing BLK's Education Program while sharpening their technical toolkit, building investing judgment, and preparing for recruiting. This role is designed for students who want structured skill-building before stepping into a full analyst seat.
Top-performing trainees may be invited to join as Equity Research Analysts after successful completion of the program.
Own your coverage
Equity Research Analysts are active members of our sector designations, responsible for deep research and clear investment communication. Analysts contribute to reports, presentations, and investment memos and collaborate closely with fellow analysts and BLK leadership.
Recruiting-focused tracks
Specialized Pathways are focused educational tracks for students actively navigating recruiting. You can apply to one pathway aligned with your target career: Investment Banking, Private Equity, Asset & Wealth Management, or Entrepreneurship/VC.
Modeled after our Equity Research training approach, each pathway combines structured learning with practical assignments and soft-skill reps (communication, interviews, and professional polish). By the end of the program, participants should be sharper, faster, and meaningfully more confident in recruiting.
