College Recruiting: MBA Program
Why choose Starwood? It’s simple . . . you’ll work with dedicated,
bright, engaging and fun individuals in a warm atmosphere where caring and
supporting each other is second nature. Also, the hospitality industry
has limitless opportunities to build an exciting career.
Starwood offers summer internships to first-year MBA students in numerous
business functions such as Marketing, Operations, Sales, Real Estate and
Finance. Our MBA interns are immersed in their teams and given ownership
of key projects and initiatives. Throughout the summer, interns work
closely with senior leadership at Starwood, are exposed to core business
processes, and are assigned a mentor to help guide their development.
Along with the focus on business and developmental goals, our program provides
some fun too, through social and networking activities and events throughout
the summer.
All Starwood Internships are located in our corporate office in Stamford, CT.
Starwood ensures its interns are given the foundation to contribute and
grow from the start. Our full day orientation will immerse interns into
our company culture, our brands and divisional structure. Each intern
will be assigned a sponsor, a mentor, and a “buddy” to assist throughout the
summer.
All summer interns are considered for leadership opportunities in our company
following graduation. At Starwood, learning and development does not end
after graduation. Associates create individual development plans and work
with their managers to reach their goals.
We visit a small number of schools in early 2012 to recruit for the MBA summer
program including The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, the
Kellogg School of Management and Harvard Business School. Please check the
postings at your school for details on how to drop a resume. Interested
first-year MBA students from other schools should email their resume to MBAInternProgram@starwoodhotels.com
The MBA program is limited to first-year MBA students only. Applicants also
must have permanent work authorization in the U.S. Experienced,
non-student candidates and those without appropriate work authorization are
invited to search our global career opportunities.
