We're back with Bates White for a deeper look into the world of economic consulting through a conversation with Amelia Irvine, a Manager in the firm's Life Sciences Practice.

The wide-ranging discussion covers:

  • How Amelia successfully transitioned from politics to consulting
  • What a "normal" day-in-the-life of an economic consultant looks like
  • Critical cover letter do's and don'ts
  • Key candidate qualities Bates White looks for
  • The Bates White case interview process - demystified
  • Why being able to get excited about dishwashers *may* mean you're cut out to be a consultant
