Dane (Tadasuke)’s Management Consulting Qualifications

Experience level: Associate

As an ex‑Bain consultant from the Tokyo office, I bring a rare combination of top‑tier MBB experience, deep Japan / global fluency, and firsthand insight into what it truly takes to succeed in consulting interviews. Having trained and worked within Bain’s rigorous problem‑solving culture, I understand exactly how interviewers assess case structuring and hypothesis first communication. Born and raised in Hawaii with Japanese parents, and fully bilingual in English and Japanese, I am uniquely positioned to coach candidates navigating cross‑border recruiting, whether they are applying to MBB offices in Japan or coming from non‑traditional or international backgrounds. My coaching goes beyond “case tips" as I help candidates build authentic stories, sharpen judgment under pressure, and internalize the consultant mindset that MBB firms look for—tailored to both Western and Japanese interview expectations.

About Dane (Tadasuke)

Born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii, I grew up in one of the most diverse, melting pot states in the United States. My parents are both from Japan, so I always felt that Japan and the United States were both a part of my identity. Naturally, after university I wanted to explore what living and working in Japan was like, and so with a leap of faith, I went through consulting recruitment in Japan and found myself resonating with the culture and impact of Bain & Company's Tokyo office. At first I knew little to nothing about what consulting even was, but after going through Bain's incredible mentorship program and being instilled the culture of "a Bainie never let another Bainie fail," I want to pay that forward and help other aspiring consultants in navigating their career. If you need help on case interview preparation, resume review, learning more about what consulting is, etc., then I am happy to connect, especially if is regarding recruitment for consulting in Japan!

Why do I coach?

When I was going through consulting recruitment fresh as an undergraduate, the process was very daunting and full of unknowns. As I was plagued with self doubt during the recruitment process, I am hoping that as a coach I can at the very least alleviate some of that pessimism for aspiring consultants and help them achieve their goals! Those days where I was so anxious to get an offer are still very fresh in my mind, so I very much empathize with any of the struggles you may be facing!
