About Varun
Hello! I am here to be a one-stop resource for anything you need to break into and thrive in the management consulting industry. I've reviewed hundreds of applications and conducted AC and ACI interviews for Bain & Company, coached behavioral and case interviewing skills for dozens of candidates who've landed offers at top firms, and served as a mentor to help young consultants succeed in their roles. Please reach out if you are interested in working together or have any questions! Here's a quick summary of some relevant consulting recruiting experiences: - I spent three years at Bain Chicago where I co-led Associate Consultant recruiting for Purdue University and conducted first-round Associate Consultant and Associate Consultant Intern interviews for students from Northwestern University. Here I learned exactly what it takes to stand out in the application process and what interviewers look for in candidates. - I completed my undergrad at Purdue University when it was not yet a target school for management consulting roles. While there, I worked with classmates and industry partners to bulid out management consulting case prep infrastructure at the school. It was here that I learned how to break down a daunting case interview process into manageable pieces that anyone can approach and excel in. - I recently graduated with an MBA from The Kellogg School of Management. While there, I helped classmates navigate networking and crack the case interview so that they could land offers with top firms. Here I learned about the nuances of MBA-level recruiting.
Why do I coach?
I coach for a couple reasons: 1) Because I get energy from helping candidates acheive their goals - nothing beats when someone I've worked with calls and tells me that they've gotten their dream job 2) I've had a few really important mentors that have helped me break into the industry, and I want to pay it forward by making this potentially opaque and daunting process more accessible to others
