It depends on what you are trying to do. The Fed carries a lot of weight so if you want to work with some great economist from around the world and you are early in your career then I would say go for it. But if you are already established then perhaps look else where. The work is interesting but in talking to some of previous research analyst the Research area tends to be pretty siloed even within the department with economist hoarding analyst even when there is down time and work to do elsewhere.

I had a call with a recruiter at BCG towards the end of last week. I went to check the job description for the role on the careers website and it’s not there anymore. Instead it says, “we’re sorry…the job you are trying to apply for has been filled.” Why would the recruiter reach out to me about applying for this role if they were going to fill it so soon? The role is still listed on LinkedIn but when I click apply it takes me to the BCG careers page with the note saying the role has been filled
