The Brief

What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.

Design a transfer pricing policy for GlowBerlin's intercompany transactions that complies with OECD guidelines and minimizes the risk of tax adjustments.

This is not a data exercise. It is the work an analyst does when stakeholders need answers from messy data. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates describe statistical methods and none who have extracted insight from messy, real-world data.

When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."

Canonical roles

Tax Consultant
Tax law looks rigid from the outside and is, up close, a living negotiation between regulators, accounting standards, and the economic reality of what a business actually did. A tax consultant lives in that negotiation. The work ranges from ASC 740 provisions to transfer pricing documentation that satisfies OECD BEPS guidance, with research happening in platforms like Checkpoint and memo drafting increasingly assisted by tools like Copilot. Strong consultants pair meticulous reading with the ability to write clearly enough that a client actually understands their position. Students who liked accounting but wanted more interpretation than bookkeeping often find a fit here. Growth happens through real engagements, study for credentials like the CPA, and the slow accumulation of pattern recognition across industries and jurisdictions.
