THE EXTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE
The consulting staff at Cornerstone Research’s Washington, D.C. office will be sponsoring this one-day event. Participants will gain firsthand experience in financial and economic consulting through an interactive case study led by current analysts. Analysts will teach participants the basics of Microsoft Excel for economic consulting casework and introduce valuation techniques and statistical analyses frequently performed by analysts in their work. Participants will also meet with managers and officers with a wide variety of industry experiences to discuss career and graduate school options, as well as the internship and full time opportunities at Cornerstone Research.
The externship program is open to current sophomores (graduating between December 2020 and June 2021), and will be held on Thursday, April 25th. The program will run from 9:30 AM until 6:00 PM.
