NEW YORK (AP) Chelsea Clinton will start a six-figure consulting job after she receives a master's degree from Oxford University later this year, Newsweek magazine reports on its Web site.
The daughter of former President Clinton will work in the New York office of London-based McKinsey & Company, newsweek.com reported Friday.
Clinton, 23, accepted the position Friday after she reportedly turned down McKinsey's offer of $100,000 a year to work at its London headquarters, according to the Web site.
A spokesman for McKinsey did not immediately return a call for comment Saturday, nor did Bill Clinton's office.
Clinton, who is studying international relations at Oxford, will be one of 5,000 McKinsey consultants worldwide who research topics ranging from health care to corporate finance.

For s second I thought it said six finger job.
And the salary is on par, maybe even a little lower, when compared with first year associates at the top law firms and the top investment banks.
As for she being who she is helping her landing the job, of course! And so what? The sons and daughters of people of influence, never mind current or ex-POTUS, of all political strip, has always had and will continue to have inside tracks into good colleges and plumb jobs. Chelesa Clinton is neither the first nor the last child of privilage and influence, Demoncrat or Republican, to take advantage of their connections. True for the Clintons and Gores, true for the Bushes too.
Besides, as one would expect, having high level connections is something that's highly prized in the top tier consulting business, so she being Chelsea is in fact a legitmate qualifier for the job.
HOW'D THEY DO THAT??????
REALLY, HOW'D THEY DO THAT???
