Job Description:

Our client work will throw a variety of challenges at you, ranging from analyzing the chemical backings of pharmaceutical drugs, to optimizing the global supply chains of consumer product companies, to helping banks turn fraud detection into improved consumer experiences. You will be assigned to a client location and work as a member of a globally distributed Mu Sigma team, one that bridges the client location and our India center. You will be asked to:

  • Engage clients to understand their business challenges and brainstorm how to solve them
  • Solve data-intensive problems using Mu Sigma analytical frameworks or tools
  • Present the results of your work
  • Build relationships with clients

Our analytics firms will operate on a project-to-project basis. We operate problem-to-problem, helping our clients make better decisions in a world of muddy, interconnected business issues. As a team member, you will be part of that client transformation

Requirements: 

  • We emphasize “learning over knowing”
  • A quantitative mindset. You don’t have to be a Statistics major, but you should be comfortable in working with numbers
  • A critical eye. We want someone who asks questions, always probing for “why” or “so what”?
  • Interpersonal skills. The work involves consulting and client interaction.
  • We hire across all disciplines: Bachelors or Masters in Arts/Science/Business as long as you’re graduating December 2015-May 2016.

The Journey Begins in India–The Columbus Program

We recently established the Columbus Program as part of Mu Sigma University, bringing new hires to Bangalore for their first 4-6 months with the company. The curriculum combines immersive, workshop-based learning with on-the-job mentoring, and both educates new associates and inculcates them in the ways of Mu Sigma. Upon completion of the program, you will be deployed back to a client location. And don’t worry, we pick up the tab.
