As a quick introduction to our firm and culture, I would like to highlight that Cornerstone:
- Recruits students from all majors; we find that our most successful analysts have a demonstrated interest in research and desire to learn complex economic and financial concepts
- Works across industries including antitrust, healthcare, finance, intellectual property, and securities and has a generalist model that provides analysts with opportunities across sectors
- Maintains a positive work-life balance, supporting our diverse staff, with a strong analyst culture
This, combined with the firm’s long-standing relationships with our clients, makes Cornerstone an ideal place to start a career. Analysts from Cornerstone often go on to top M.B.A., J.D., or Ph.D. graduate programs or proceed directly into technology, business, finance, or nonprofit work.
