About georges
My name is Georges. I'm a former Senior Manager at Bain & Company with 8+ years of consulting experience, primarily across EMEA, covering strategy, performance improvement, merger integration, and commercial due diligence for clients including tech companies, energy players, NGOs, government entities, banks, sovereign wealth funds, and many others. Beyond my consulting work, I was actively involved in recruiting at Bain. I interviewed countless candidates, was an active member of the recruiting team, and led UK recruiting for Bain's Dubai office - leading on-campus presentations, CV screening and scoring, invitations of successful candidates to the interview process, performance evaluations, and extension of offers. I have experience recruiting and interviewing candidates for Internship, Associate Consultant, Consultant, Manager, and Senior Manager positions. Since leaving Bain ~10 months ago, I've transitioned into coaching, accumulating 585+ sessions with great reviews and success in helping candidates land offers across consulting firms. I help aspiring candidates across all stages of breaking into consulting - from identifying the right firms and locations, developing an application strategy, and networking, to navigating the application process, crafting CVs and cover letters, and preparing for fit and case interviews. I know how CV scoring works (criteria, dimensions, and weightings) across firms, have a large database of real cases and numerous CV/cover letter templates, and a quick, tailored approach to mastering case interview theory in just a few sessions, no lengthy books required. I've helped clients land offers at MBB, Tier 2, and boutique consulting firms. I tailor my coaching to the specific firm each candidate is targeting and have built a vast network across MBB, Tier 2, and boutique firms that I leverage to give candidates a real edge.
Why do I coach?
I spent 8 years at Bain & Company, and some of the most meaningful moments of my career were not closing a client project, they were helping someone on my team grow, or watching a candidate I'd mentored land their dream offer. As I moved into leadership at Bain, mentoring and people development became a natural part of my role. I genuinely enjoyed it, and I was good at it. I coach because I know how hard and opaque the consulting world can be, and I've sat on both sides of the table. I want to give candidates the insider knowledge, honest feedback, and tailored support that can make the difference between a rejection and an offer.
