Egon Zehnder is the global leader in: 

Executive Search

Egon Zehnder's largest service practice – Executive Search – helps clients achieve competitive advantage through the identification, assessment, and recruitment of the world's most talented business leaders.

Board Consulting and Search

Egon Zehnder has a dedicated service practice for Board Consulting and Director Search. The Group focuses its efforts on the highest level of an organization and works in a collaborative manner with the Chairman of the Board and its members to recruit Directors whose independence, intellect, integrity, and courage will strengthen the Board and create sustained competitive advantage.

 

Executive Development and Assessment

One of the key challenges for business leaders is to identify, develop, and retain outstanding individuals who are able to deliver superior performance, both individually and as part of a team. Consultants at Egon Zehnder recognized this emerging trend several years ago and pioneered a professional service to address the need. As a result, we developed the Executive Development and Assessment practice, which evaluates and improves the performance of the ‘human capital’ in organizations.

ABOUT THE POSITION

OVERVIEW

Egon Zehnder offers Seasonal Analysts a unique opportunity to gain valuable practical experience in a stimulating, collaborative, and entrepreneurial professional environment. In addition to experiencing an exceptional training and mentoring curriculum, Seasonal Analysts will contribute directly to client assignments and interact with a diverse group of consultants and analysts across the global firm. Seasonal Analysts will also work on strategic projects that offer broad exposure to a variety of industries and functions.

 

Seasonal Analysts complete the program having gained exceptional insight into career options and professional development paths, and empowered to make informed, strategic choices about their future. Additionally, by working alongside consultants, Seasonal Analysts will have access to career guidance from former members of prominent financial institutions, consultancies, and corporations.

 

We will consider exceptional performers for permanent Analyst positions – in fact, over 35% of our current analyst and broader research team completed the Seasonal Analyst Program before joining us on a permanent basis. Additionally, members of our analyst and broader research team have proceeded to some of the world’s top graduate programs, including Harvard Business School, Stanford Graduate School of Business, UCLA Anderson, INSEAD, Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern, Columbia Business School, and others, and top firms across a range of industries, including McKinsey & Company, Bridgewater Associates, and Cisco. 

DESCRIPTION

We seek Seasonal Analysts for our offices across the United States to:

·         Develop solutions for client assignments in collaboration with colleagues across the global firm.

·         Coordinate teams, conduct research, and develop insights for complex projects that will result in a presentation, report, or article for business development or brand-building.

·         Provide general research and analysis support, including participating in special projects as requested.

 

REQUIREMENTS

While we welcome all disciplines, our process is highly competitive and selective. Candidates must be a Junior, Senior, or a recent graduate and have demonstrated a solid academic record. We seek highly-motivated problem-solvers who possess intellectual curiosity, a readiness to tackle challenges, strong interpersonal and communication skills, leadership experience, and qualitative analytical skills. Previous experience in a market research role, familiarity with databases, and acumen with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint) are desired. As this is a paid internship, US work authorization is required. A minimum GPA of 3.3 is preferred. We may request a writing sample as the position requires superior writing skills.
