Serim’s Management Consulting Qualifications

Experience level: Associate

Serim has helped clients get into these companies:

I'm a McKinsey alum who worked at the firm in two angles most coaches haven't: as an associate on the traditional path, and as a specialist on the expert track, which is a lesser-known route for candidates with deep subject matter expertise. I joined without an MBA, coming in from a clinical and PM background, so I know firsthand how to build a consulting case for yourself when your resume doesn't follow the standard playbook. That's where I add the most value. If you're a generalist, I'll prep you the way I was prepped by my coach. If you're a specialist, career-switcher, or coming in from medicine, law, engineering, or another expert domain, I'll help you translate your experience into the language McKinsey hires on, and avoid the mistakes that quietly tank otherwise strong candidates. PS: I've already helped two MDs secure expert consultant offers at McKinsey this year, and I work especially well with candidates whose stories don't fit the standard mold.
