About Xuan
Hello! I'm Xuan ("Shwen"), a Senior Associate at L.E.K. Singapore. I specialize in coaching candidates to excel in consulting interviews, particularly those without prior consulting experience. When I applied to consulting in my final undergraduate year, my background was primarily in product management. Despite this, I secured one of only three Associate positions at L.E.K. Singapore from over 700 applicants in 2022 and reached final rounds with MBB firms. My success was rooted in crafting compelling narratives about my skills, experience, and passion for consulting, emphasizing transferable skills from leadership roles at, for example, university consulting societies. Outside consulting, I'm the co-founder of CasewithAI (https://casewithai.com), a 100% AI-powered platform for case consulting prep that has collaborated with top global universities including Harvard, UPenn, and King's College London. I'm also a self-taught coder (www.xuan-yee.com), have volunteered as an online counsellor for over 90 clients, and enjoy gaming, reading, fitness, long naps, and spontaneous travel. Whether you're new to consulting or looking to boost your interview skills, I'm here to help. I offer tailored coaching in case interviews, personal fit interviews, and resume optimization. Let's schedule a free intro call to get started!
Why do I coach?
1.) Paying it Forward: I've been lucky to have great mentors—friends, bosses, and peers who've shaped my career. Coaching allows me to pass on this support. I've previously coached students on university admissions, and their testimonials can be found here: https://www.xuan-yee.com/tutoring/ 2. Practical and Effective Coaching: Having experienced coaching firsthand, I know what works (and what doesn’t). My aim is to make every session focused, practical, and impactful for you. 3. Accessible Support: I've personally navigated financial hardships as a student, so I understand the challenge of investing in coaching. If cost is an issue, please reach out—we can explore options to make coaching accessible, including discounts.
