Statistical Consulting
Does anyone have any information regarding to a career in statistical consulting?
- What firms have these ‘specialized’ groups (e.g. McKinsey has a ‘Marketing Analytics’ and ‘Risk Management’ consulting groups that seem to be in line with what I’m looking for)? Is it that the big consulting firms (MBB/Deloitte/Booze etc) have such subdivisions, or more that there are firms entirely dedicated to this space (e.g. NERA/CRA + other economic consulting firms)
- What kind of background would you need? I am assuming the standard MBA => Post-MBA consultant would not be applicable here, given the technicality of the job required (programming, advanced statistical analysis etc.).
- Compensation? Comparable to other consulting jobs? Or higher?
To give a little background I have a Masters in Financial Engineering and I am looking to make a move into consulting.
Thanks!
Don't know much about statistical consulting. managementconsulted.com is a pretty good website for consulting information but I'm not sure how much they have on statistical.
MBB doesn't do heavy stat analysis, at most you're doing basic linear regressions but not to the order of logit/probit models or in depth prediction models, they don't fly with senior mgmt. If you want to do heavy stats consider becoming an actuary
