About Alberto
I’m a former McKinsey Associate Partner who’s interviewed hundreds of candidates and trained over 500 consultants throughout my career. I’ve seen what makes people stand out—and what holds them back—even when they don’t see it themselves. Unlike many coaches, I’ve actually hired, promoted, and coached consultants inside top firms. So I don’t just teach frameworks—I help you think, speak, and perform like someone firms want to hire. I’m direct, practical, and always focused on what really moves the needle. Coaching with me feels like having a McKinsey consultant help you crack the case of your own career—with structure, clarity and no fluff. I split my time between Spain and Brazil, teach at a digital business school, and love working with people who want more than just to “pass an interview”—they want to feel ready for what comes after.
Why do I coach?
I coach because someone once opened doors for me that I didn’t even know existed—and I know how much of a difference that can make. I didn’t come from a target school or have the perfect background. I had to figure a lot of things out on my own. Along the way, I realized that many people don’t struggle because they lack talent—they struggle because no one ever showed them how the game works. Now that I’ve been on the inside—interviewing, hiring, training—I coach to pay that forward. I love helping people get clarity, believe in their story, and walk into high-stakes interviews knowing exactly how to show their value. And honestly? Helping someone land an offer they thought was out of reach feels just as good—if not better—than getting one myself.
