Description

This is a very open hour for us to discuss a career in management consulting as broadly or as specifically as you'd like. The goal is to provide a direct and clear understanding of what the job entails and the skills required to thrive. Generally, we start by baselining where you are in your exploration, your background, and what other types of opportunities you may be considering. And then open it up to peeling back the curtain. I joined Bain after business school, so I've directly followed the path from summer associate to new consultant, case team leader, manager, partner, practice founder. I've led teams from associate consultant summer interns all the way up to fellow partner. I've recruited at all levels and scoped work, sold work, made final recruiting decisions, led consultant staffing in addition to recruiting, led west coast client development efforts, served a multitude of clients across media, tech, consumer products, private equity. I founded and led a global digital practice. I've hired MBB firms as an Executive since leaving Bain, so I also know the product and cultures of the other firms. I will help provide perspective, so that you can make a decision to pursue this career (or not; maybe there's something even better suited to your aspirations!) fully "eyes open". An informed decision is the goal here. And, if you decide you would like to move forward, we can talk about where you are and where you need to reach your goal, whether that's mastering the interviewing process for an offer and/or starting a career with a solid head start!
