A Day In the Life of the Research Intern
A successful Research Intern applies analytical skills to determine relevance and importance of all findings, which are compiled in a professionally written, narrative-style report for our clients, who rely on our research and analysis to gain insight into subjects’ background, reputation and status so they can make accurate, key business decisions. Research Interns will work mostly under the guidance of a Research Analyst or Manager but, with proven skills and interest, may be able to handle work on a more independent basis.
