And, YES! We hire math majors!

 McKesson will be represented by Mallory Burks, who says:

I graduated from UGA in May 2015 with a B.S. in Mathematics and a minor in Computer Science. I interned with McKesson the summer before my senior year as a Data Analyst where my primary responsibilities were to create metrics and key performance indicators for my team and design dashboards to display this data for Senior Leadership. Upon graduation, I was promoted to Solution Manager where I design, implement  and manage solutions for our business units’ technology needs.

McKinsey

McKinsey will be represented by Aaron Caraher, Chris Gill and Trevor Reece, all UGA Math graduates from the GC Insights office of McKinsey & Co.   They say:  Our office is focused on the payments industry, providing benchmarking and best practice analysis and consulting services.  Clients use our services to provide an objective assessment of performance against peers and quantify opportunities for improvement. We are looking for both full-time hires as well as interns for the summer.

We currently have 50+ members in our advanced analytics group. We also have large actuarial and underwriting groups that are seeking individuals who are quantitatively focused.  I received my undergrad in math from UGA, then I pursued a MS in Math Sciences with an emphasis in Statistics at Clemson University. I worked as a statistician in the R&D department of Michelin for 6 years, then came to work for State Farm. Now, I manage an internship program for graduate students pursuing a degree in quantitative fields such as statistics, business analytics, econometrics, data science, etc
