The online experience was handled well, but I wish it had been in person.

Summer Consultant
June - August 2017 • Washington, DC
What I liked
Very organized internship program. You learn a lot about economic consulting. The company really spoils you in terms of events. The pay is very good. Very strong mentorship program. Very engaging case study component.
What I wish was different
A lot of the aspects of your work (type, difficulty, etc.) will depend on the project that you're put on. I wish I had been put on a more diverse set of projects. Also internship class did not blend well.
Advice
If you want to get an offer, make sure you really put effort into your midterm evaluation goals.

Summer Consultant
June - August 2017 • Washington, DC
What I liked
- Strong mentorship program -- Summer Consultants receive a peer coach and a sponsor, both of which you have weekly check-ins with
- Exceptionally friendly culture -- Absolutely every interaction I had (up to the partner level) was positive and friendly.
- Meaningful work and learned great skills (especially Stata and Excel)
What I wish was different
I have no complaints. I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to be a Summer Consultant at Bates White and the program is excellent.
Advice
Take advantage of the time you have at Bates White.
