During your time at Freddie Mac, your manager will be one of the most important resources you have as you work to achieve your career goals.

Managers can offer opportunities for stretch assignments and provide feedback and coaching to help you grow in your career. At Freddie Mac, we are fortunate to have access to two fantastic benefits: our Education Assistance benefit and Student Loan Repayment Program, both of which support continuous learning for working professionals. 


What skills will I need to grow within Freddie Mac?

  

In our hiring decisions, Freddie Mac looks at your technical skills (the “what”) and the ways you demonstrate our core competencies (the “how"). Although which technical skills you’ll need vary by job, we encourage employees to discuss their career goals with their manager and pursue any technical certifications or trainings that may align with their goals.  


No matter where your career in Freddie Mac may take you, “how” we do our jobs is critical.
