San Francisco, California, United States Cornerstone Research Full time
Position Overview
Cornerstone Research is a prominent firm specializing in economic and financial consulting, boasting a team of over 900 professionals across multiple locations.

In collaboration with a vast network of distinguished academic faculty, we engage in thorough and impartial research, adhering to the highest academic standards to tackle intricate financial, economic, accounting, and marketing challenges that emerge in legal and regulatory contexts.

Our firm participates in a diverse array of high-stakes legal matters and disputes.

Current projects encompass subjects such as capital markets, business and securities valuation, mergers and acquisitions, risk management, competitive market analysis, high-frequency trading, consumer marketing impacts, and patent infringement issues.

For instance, we investigate factors influencing the ongoing evolution of financial markets, utilizing frameworks that merge finance with industrial organization economics to assess pricing mechanisms in derivative markets.

Beyond the realm of financial markets, we also explore economic issues across various sectors, including innovation-driven fields like life sciences and technology, as well as energy, telecommunications, and industrial markets.

We evaluate economic implications in contexts such as potential mergers, allegations of anticompetitive behavior, and the effects of intellectual property violations. Additionally, we address marketing and economic challenges in cases involving claims of deceptive marketing practices or false advertising.

Responsibilities
The Summer Associate role at Cornerstone Research provides an exceptional opportunity for candidates pursuing doctoral studies in finance, economics, econometrics, accounting, or marketing to gain practical experience over a six to twelve-week period.

This position is structured to replicate the experience of a first-year Associate, incorporating case assignments and formal training.

Summer Associates collaborate closely with senior personnel, clients, and subject matter experts to establish objectives, oversee research initiatives, manage timelines, and mentor junior colleagues.

Typical daily tasks include:

  • Assisting in the formulation of project strategies
  • Conducting comprehensive research
  • Directing analytical efforts
  • Interpreting and summarizing data and key insights
  • Proposing effective solutions to challenges encountered by teams

This role presents a valuable opportunity for doctoral candidates to apply their theoretical and empirical research expertise to develop and implement innovative and rigorous analytical strategies addressing real-world issues.

The outcomes of our engagements can significantly influence public policy and corporate strategies.

While many Summer Associates opt to spend their summer with us, the timing and duration of this position are adaptable and can be arranged at any point during the summer or academic year.

Candidate Profile
We are seeking individuals currently pursuing doctoral studies in finance, economics, econometrics, accounting, or marketing, with expected graduation years of 2025, 2026, or 2027.

Applicants must demonstrate the ability to translate academic research into practical solutions for real-world challenges.

We are actively recruiting for our offices in various locations. Candidates must be eligible to work in the United States, and we will consider international candidates with appropriate work authorization.

Interested applicants should submit a cover letter detailing their interest in economic and financial consulting, along with a resume and academic transcripts.

Cornerstone Research is committed to providing Equal Employment Opportunities to all employees and applicants, without regard to legally protected categories.

We offer competitive compensation, with a bi-weekly salary for the Summer Associate position.
