The Yield team helps the sales team shape individual proposals and keeps track of how those proposals collectively consume inventory. Every month this translates into an inventory puzzle with billions of individual pieces, and by guiding how these pieces are assembled, the Yield team contributes to the overall revenue growth of CBS Interactive.

The Associate Yield Analyst partners with a diverse group within the company and has the opportunity to work on projects that cross departments and functions. Associate Yield Analysts contribute to projects with significant visibility.
