I’ve gone from “zero to hero” in one month and can help you do the same. I created a networking strategy and sent cold emails (described by one McKinsey consultant as “fantastic”) to secure 50+ networking calls with pro consultants at MBB+Kearney+LEK+EYP+OW. Ran over a dozen cases with those consultants plus multiple practice behavioral interviews, receiving critical feedback where I rarely received the same advice twice— I know how to implement and “level up” with each practice rep, making the little changes time by time to be “practically perfect.” I didn’t come from a target school and I didn’t have a recognizable name internship. But I had drive, honed my story, perfected my application materials, and sought out the right advice. I networked first, submitted second, and then threw myself into the fire with prepping for interviews and by the end of that prep the professional BCG consultants were telling me: “this was the best I’ve ever seen this case done”, “you solved that case way faster than most”, and “anything you can do before your final interviews? Rest. You don’t need to run any more practice cases.” That’s the advice I have for you. You can only be assured you’re offer-ready once you’re honestly told: “you don’t need to run anymore practice cases.” It took two BCGers telling me that before I believed them, but you can imagine how confidently I was able to enter my final interviews having heard that assurance. I’m specifically interested in helping to strategize your path to the offer and helping you prepare to crush your case interviews! I’m also uniquely well-suited to advise LGBT+ applicants on navigating recruiting with MBB and other elite consulting firms.
