What exactly is a “Knowledge Analyst” at BCG? Is it client facing or more of an internal/research type of role?

I interviewed for a lead knowledge analyst position. If you like research and are in the technical side of things in your particular area, it might be a good place for you. It’s more of you becoming a subject matter expert that consultants can tap on for expertise depending on client needs. It is client facing from time to time but only when necessary.

If you’re coming from a consulting background, they may tell you right upfront they don’t need a true consultant. I was told to interview at platinion as that seemed more up my alley.

Sorry for the late reply. I was told mid-120k~ish. They require around 4 to 6 years of experience for this position.

While this is a decent salary, it definitely doesn’t compare to salaries that consultants make at BCG with that many years of experience.

I have been told, however, that it’s possible to switch over to a more client facing role, but not sure what, if any, salary bump you might receive. Regardless, if you think this is the right fit, I would say it’s worth it as the team is only growing from what I heard during interviews and a great place to foster your personal and profession growth (my brother works for BCG and he can attest to this, as well.)

It’s a research role. You may work with teams who are client-facing but your role isn’t.

Hi! I have a quick question and could use some advice:

I have 1 job offer that is an hour away and pays 45k, after negotiations (Research Associate Position at a University) .

I have just interviewed for a position closer to home and a base salary of 65k, but haven’t heard back from them in about 2 days (He said he would make a decision by yesterday and I’ve reached out).
I have to decide on the first offer by Thursday but I haven’t heard back from the second yet. Thoughts on next move?

Anyone have experience with a required on-site final interview for a fully remote job? I'll have already had an interview with the hiring manager and a teammate and a presentation of a case study.

I really want the role and want to respect their process but it's hard to justify visiting (across the country) and getting time off my current role.

I am not interested in Bill Gate’s story - this is a general question about what is appropriate in workplace.
