      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Cornerstone Research

      Interview

      The process began with an email notification asking graduates to schedule their interviews on a given week; the case studies consisted of two half hour technical economic case studies with a junior, then senior, level analyst, accompanied with behavioral questions. For the case studies, the first was easy, the second was quite difficult.

      Application

      I interviewed at Cornerstone Research (Boston, MA)

      Interview

      very smoothly planned and the timeline from applying to final round was around two weeks so pretty fast. first round was a lot easier than final round, but that can also just be attributed to the difference in interview duration.
