£40,000 job is offered to Chelsea Clinton
HELEN PUTTICK
SHE is just 22 and fresh out of university, but Chelsea Clinton is said to have been offered a £40,000-a-year job. The daughter of Bill Clinton, the former US president, and Hillary Clinton, the US senator, has already been wooed by the Boston Consulting Group, a management firm.
Now it is understood an elite New York rival, McKinsey, is tempting the one-time first daughter with a salary of £40,000 for an entry level business analyst's job.
Miss Clinton will be leaving University College, Oxford, this spring after completing a postgraduate course [not quite the same as graduating, is it?] in international relations and has decided to train as a business consultant specialising in the health sector. [So why didn't she study health-related matters in college or graduate school?]
Her CV already boasts a first from Stanford University, in California, and her work experience ranges from a summer holiday job at the World Health Organisation in Geneva last year to attendance of a World Economic Forum session on global health issues last month, where her father was giving a speech. [That's her "work experience" in toto - a one-month internship in Geneva and attending a "session" in Davos. Let's consider what kind of work experience most of us had by the time we were 23 years old, shall we?] It is not yet known whether Miss Clinton will accept either offer.
