Honestly, I wouldn’t recommend applying to this location. They seem to favor candidates from Texas A&M; the College Station office is largely staffed by alumni from there. The people are nice, but the environment felt somewhat dull. Research Analysts mainly focus on data cleaning, which may be typical for the industry.

Screening interview with two employees. After I introduced myself as a "statistician", they began to question me with suspicion. "Why would a Statistician want to join our firm?" This experience really lowered my opinion of Coherent Economics' professional and academic capabilities. The fact that they would suspiciously question a statistician (I have an MS in Statistics and a BS in Economics) as not fit for economic research and consulting makes me seriously question whether these people are competent at all. They seem to not understand that econometrics, which is a core tool in economic research and consulting, is applied statistics. Also their about us page on their website literally says "We are a team of professional economists, accountants, statisticians, consultants, and data analysts," which I suppose is just marketing fluff because they seem to not respect the role of statistics in economic consulting. Coherent Economics appears to be staffed by clowns.
