We present a theory of magnetic exchange interactions in quantum dots containing electrons and magnetic ions. We find the interaction between the electron and Mn ion to depend strongly on the number of electrons. It can be switched off for closed shell configurations and maximized for partially filled shells. However, unlike the total electron spin S which is maximized for half-filled shells, we predict the exchange interaction to be independent of the filling of the electronic shell. We show how this unusual effect manifests itself in quantum dot addition and excitation spectrum.
