Compass Lexecon

Compass Lexecon's single entry point for undergraduates is its Summer Internship, an 8- to 10-week placement built around the same case work as a full-time Analyst rather than a rotational program. In the US and Latin America interns join the summer before their final year of study; in Europe the same internship can fall during a final year, between terms, or shortly after graduating, a pattern corroborated by Columbia's Department of Economics.

• Summer Internship: 8-10 weeks, paid, application requires a cover letter, resume, and unofficial transcript
• Research Analyst / Analyst: full-time, joins after a bachelor's or master's degree in economics or another quantitative field
• Senior Economist: requires a Ph.D. in economics, or several years of experience in a related field

There is no separate off-cycle or spring-week track. The one summer internship is the only internship-shaped route in before the direct-hire Analyst position after graduation, so a candidate who misses this single window has no second internship chance to convert ahead of the post-graduate hiring round.

Global Competition Review has ranked Compass Lexecon in the "Elite" tier of its GCR 100 for 19 consecutive years running, in the 2026 edition, and Chambers & Partners has ranked it Band 1 globally in Litigation Support for Economic Analysts for 8 consecutive years, a ranking Chambers' own guide confirms. Both rankings are re-assessed annually against the same field of specialist economic-consulting competitors, not one-time recognitions.

For a candidate weighing a small number of boutique economic-consulting applications against the broader strategy-consulting field, a near two-decade run at the top of two separately judged rankings is a more specific signal of standing in competition and litigation economics than firm size alone.
