Sophomore Summer Business Analyst
Job ID: 19389

Our Sophomore Summer Business Analyst (SSBA) program is a program with a focus on exposing members of historically underrepresented groups to the management consulting profession.

Are you driven by the opportunity to tackle complex challenges and work alongside top leaders? Do you want to be part of a team that delivers outcomes that others simply can't? If so, you've come to the right place.

Who You'll Work With
You'll work in one of our offices in the U.S. for ~10 weeks in the summer. You'll work as part of a project team, collaborating with colleagues to solve our clients toughest business problems.

Your impact within our firm
You'll work in teams of typically 3-5 consultants, playing an active role in all aspects of the engagement. This includes gathering and analyzing information, formulating and testing hypotheses, and developing and communicating recommendations. You'll also have the opportunity to present results and implement recommendations in collaboration with team members. You will work with McKinsey colleagues, owning a distinct piece of the project. Some examples of the specific work may include interviewing stakeholders and experts, leading teams, building financial models, creating and delivering presentations, and working with McKinsey subject experts to develop perspectives and insights. You'll gain real-world experience with the broad range of work McKinsey consultants do, including serving clients as well as helping to build McKinsey's internal knowledge and capabilities. You'll participate in a number of social activities throughout the summer to help you get to know our firm culture and interact with other summer interns, as well as members of our affinity networks. When you join, you are provided with a week of training. Additionally, you'll receive guidance and support from your local office in the selection of client projects, helping you to develop your skills and build your network. The Sophomore Summer Business Analyst (SSBA) internship is a program with a focus on exposing members of historically underrepresented groups to the management consulting profession, including but not limited to individuals who identify as Black, Hispanic, Latino, and/or part of Indigenous groups in North America. Thus, you'll have opportunities to connect with and create relationships with members of our McKinsey Black Network and Hispanic and Latino Network during the program.
