The posting

Founded in 1999, Viking Global Investors (“Viking”) is a global investment firm with a long-term, fundamental, research-intensive approach to investing. Viking manages more than $54 billion of capital across public and private investments. Viking has offices in Stamford, New York, London, and San Francisco, and is registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. For more information, please visit vikingglobal.com.

INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY

Join our 27-person public equity investment team this summer to develop your investing toolkit and explore actionable investment ideas. Throughout your 10-week experience, you will partner directly with portfolio managers and senior analysts to identify and evaluate public equity investment opportunities leveraging our fundamental, research-intensive approach. You will be trained and mentored by experienced investors at Viking to ensure your success. The internship will culminate with an investment presentation to members of the investment team.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Performing primary, in-depth research on industry and company fundamentals by analyzing financial statements and real-time data, conducting channel checks and surveys, and carrying out other comprehensive due diligence activities
  • Engaging with company management and investor relations teams, sell-side research analysts and buy-side peers
  • Attending industry conferences and events
  • Building and updating financial models
  • Distilling a large volume of research down to a set of key drivers of industry, company, and stock price performance to form a view on a company and its value
  • Contributing to Viking’s overall research effort by sharing information and insights with the investment team

QUALIFICATIONS

Across the firm, we attract motivated, intellectually curious, and analytically rigorous people who are passionate about learning and creating impact.

The ideal candidate will possess the following traits:

  • Independence of thought: we strive to be unbiased and develop objective, data-centric theses to drive investment decisions.
  • Strong quantitative and analytical abilities: has the intellectual toolkit to support investment theses with highly differentiated research.
  • Efficient communication: our research efforts are extensive, but our ideas are communicated clearly and simply.
  • Autonomous and self-starting: we are a team of high-performing, motivated investment professionals; we are proactive and direct our own work.
  • Intellectual honesty: we value the ability to see the truth, even amidst confusion and conflict. We strive to recognize the current, correct investment decision rather than simply continuing to advocate for prior recommendations.
  • Passion for research and investing: our team is engaged and excited to pursue differentiated research, supported by the firm’s significant resources.

APPLICATION

Please submit a 1–2 page supplement making the case for a controversial investment idea: a view on a publicly traded company, industry, or investment theme where you believe the market consensus is wrong. State your position clearly in the first sentence, including the direction of your view and the time horizon over which you expect it to play out.

Your supplement should:

  • Explain what the consensus believes today and why you disagree
  • Focus on the elements you consider most misunderstood or underappreciated
  • Address the strongest argument against your view and explain why it is wrong
  • Identify what developments would tell you that you are right or wrong

We value conviction and original analysis over a balanced summary of the debate. Evidence you have gathered yourself is encouraged. Please select a topic outside of industries or businesses you’ve analyzed professionally in prior roles.

Eligibility & Requirements

  • At this time, we are only accepting applications from first-year MBA candidates.
  • The internship is currently based in New York.
  • Application deadline: December 3, 2026 (11:59PM ET).

The base salary range for this position in New York City is annual $250,000 to $250,000. In addition to base salary, Viking employees may be eligible for other forms of compensation and benefits, such as a discretionary bonus, 100% coverage of medical and dental premiums, and paid lunches. Actual compensation for successful candidates will be individually determined based on multiple factors including, but not limited to, a candidate’s skill set, experience, education, and other qualifications.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
