Melis’s Career Coaching Qualifications
Experience level: Manager
My career has spanned MBB consulting, business school, and strategy & operations roles in technology, giving me firsthand experience navigating competitive recruiting processes, career pivots, and professional growth across industries and geographies. Having lived, studied, and worked in multiple countries, I understand the challenges of making high-stakes career decisions and repositioning yourself for new opportunities. Whether you're transitioning into tech, applying to business school, preparing for interviews, or pursuing your next promotion, I can help you build a compelling narrative that connects your experiences, strengths, and future goals. My coaching style is direct, strategic, and personalized. Together, we'll refine your resume, strengthen your interview skills, and position your story in a way that resonates with admissions committees and hiring managers. The strongest candidates aren't always the most accomplished—they're the ones who can clearly communicate who they are, the impact they've made, and where they're headed next.
