Analytical and Coding Skills Coursework: We provide interns with extensive training in the core analytical skills critical to their case work. This coursework strengthens analysts’ understanding of the firm’s best practices in Excel and in SAS, Stata, R, VBA, and Python coding.
Analysis Group University (AGU): Our interns can access our centralized online learning portal and view hundreds of training videos, presentations, and other targeted training content on demand. Technical and nontechnical trainings are available.
Summer Programming: Over the course of the experience, the intern cohort attends topical presentations to get to know the firm, how we work, our people, and our practice areas. Analysis Group also hosts senior staff touchpoints so that interns can network with leaders at the firm to learn about their career paths and our culture.
Mentorship: Providing a strong support system from day one is very important to us. Interns will have a peer mentor and advisor who will guide them through their summer experience, support them through the onboarding experience, and help them network with individuals outside their case team.
Evaluation and Assessment: As they conclude their internships, summer analyst interns are evaluated for the opportunity to return to Analysis Group as full-time analysts.

We choose a case team for every summer analyst intern when they join us.
