     consulting firm, with more than 400 full-time staff members
     across six offices. Together with an extensive network of

     ASSOCIATE AT CORNERSTONE RESEARCH:


     Cornerstone Research provides an interesting and rewarding
     work environment. Our staff works directly with esteemed
     faculty experts in a distinctive "partnership" that
     combines the strengths of the academic and business worlds.
     Cornerstone Research provides opportunities for associates
     to develop as testifying experts if they are interested in
     such a career path.


     Associates are central to case work at Cornerstone Research
     and are involved in all phases of a project. In the
     initial stages, associates actively participate in the
     formulation of the work plan and the analysis of issues.
     As the case progresses, associates handle the complex
     aspects of a case directly, while managing and advising
     analysts. They work with senior staff, experts, and
     clients to develop case strategy and to determine how best
     to communicate our findings. In addition, associates
     actively participate in shaping and implementing the firm's
     recruiting, training, and practice development strategies.
      We seek candidates who have pursued doctoral studies in
     finance, economics, accounting, or marketing. Candidates
     must have the ability to apply academic research to real
     world issues, present concise explanations of complex
     analyses, and independently manage projects and junior
     staff. The ideal candidate will possess a strong empirical
     background and excellent interpersonal skills. We offer an
     industry-competitive compensation and benefits package.
