About the Role
The research teams behind the best-known AI models come to Mercor for management consulting judgment they can't generate on their own. Your standards and expertise become the rubric that frontier AI is graded against. This is a standing listing for consultants who want AI training and evaluation work, not a specific job opening. It stays open whether or not a matching project is running this week. New projects start on short notice, so instead of posting and pulling a listing each time, we keep one open per field and draw from it when one begins.
What You'll Do
- We match consultants in the network to projects like:
- Writing a case prompt from an engagement you ran, with the client situation, the data, and the constraint, plus the reference answer a model's attempt gets graded against
- Grading model-built market sizings and profitability analyses: whether the segmentation is sensible, whether the driver tree holds, whether the recommendation follows from the numbers
- Flagging where a model produces a clean-looking answer that would not survive a partner review or a client steering committee
- Past rates have run $90 to $120 an hour, set per project by scope and depth.
- Apply here with your resume and confirm where you work from, then take a short AI interview, about 20 minutes total.
- We verify your background and add you to the management consulting pool.
- When a project needs management consulting expertise, we invite matching people from the pool to that specific listing. It names the rate, the hours, and the client, and any hiring decision is made there.
You're a Good Fit If You
- Professional experience in strategy, operations, or transformation consulting
- Clear written communication, since most of the work involves explaining your reasoning
- Comfort with ambiguous tasks, and willingness to flag unclear instructions
- Where people in this pool have worked
- The most common backgrounds, though the pool is broader than this:
- MBB and the strategy arms of the Big Four
- Boutique and tier-two strategy firms
- Functional specialists: pricing, operations, org design, post-merger integration
