I’m a masters student - can I still apply?

Masters students without full time work experience are welcome to apply to our Consulting Analyst position, as long as they are graduating in Winter 2024 or Spring 2025. Our internships & Software Engineer Level 1 roles are only open to current undergraduate students.

I'm graduating late. If I were to get hired, could I start late?

We prefer to start all entry-level teammates together in classes so they can attend training, participate in ongoing mentorship and build their network. We find this creates a strong, cohesive class that provides a great support system as you grow your career at Qvest.  We encourage all winter graduates to apply to our next year's analyst class. For example, if you are graduating in December 2024, we encourage you to apply for our 2025 Analyst class.

I'm graduating early. If I were to get hired, could I start early?

We prefer to start all entry-level teammates together (see above). While there are no guarantees, we may have openings that would allow you to start prior to your Analyst class. We advise that you alert your Recruitment contacts about your start date preferences while you are going through our interview process.
