Recent graduates join Global Advisors in the Analyst position. Analysts primarily perform desktop analysis and work under guidance. They are expected to build mastery of analytical skills. They build skills necessary to work on client site and engage with lower level clients. After a period where they have shown success in mastering the analytical competencies and an ability to show insight into client issues and potential solutions, they may be promoted to the Consultant role. This may take up to two years.
