About The Role

This Entry-Level Data Analyst, Workforce Analytics role is structured around learning and contribution in equal measure.

WHY ACPWB

ACPWB occupies a distinctive position: large enough to be credible, small enough to be agile, old enough to have a track record, young enough to still be building it. The people who thrive here find that combination energizing rather than disorienting.

ACPWB was founded in Milwaukee in 2006 with a simple mandate: help working Americans understand and advocate for the compensation they deserve. Eighteen years later, that mandate has grown into a full-service research and advisory practice serving clients from early-stage employers to Fortune 50 enterprises — and we are still based in Milwaukee, because Milwaukee is genuinely underrated.

INTERVIEW PROCESS

We use a structured, competency-based interview format with a standardized scoring rubric applied consistently across all candidates. This approach is less exciting than an unstructured conversation but more predictive and considerably fairer. Interviewers are trained on the rubric before they use it.

What Success Looks Like In Year One

• ◆ Ask good questions consistently — about methodology, about client context, about why we do things the way we do
• ◆ Receive a mid-year performance review that confirms you are progressing on the expected development path
• ◆ Complete your first annual performance review cycle with documented goals for year two
• ◆ Demonstrate consistent accuracy in data entry and analysis work with a declining error rate over time
