Management Consulting

I have helped dozens of people navigate the Bain & Co. internship application process and pre-internship programs application process -- I was part of Bain's first CREW cohort! During college, I held five different internship roles across tech and consulting, and I understand what big firms look for when recruiting undergraduate students. I chose to turn down my Bain & Company full-time offer to work in startup operations, so I'm happy to help you determine if consulting is the right fit. I went from having no idea what a case interview was to landing a Bain offer in <6 weeks! Whether you're looking for help leveling up your case interview skills or you have no idea where to start, I'm here to help! I specialize in helping people simplify their case math approach and ensure their case interviews are non-robotic and authentic.

Hi, I’m Neha! I'm a former McKinsey and EY consultant who's helped 50+ students prep for and navigate their way into their dream consulting roles. I've been on both sides of the table: as a candidate sweating through MBB interviews and at McKinsey helping recruit new talent. Now, I’m here to help you nail your resume, networking, and case and behavioral interviews, and walk into those rooms knowing you belong there Why me? • Firsthand experience at two of the industry’s most respected firms. I’ve broken into consulting not once, but twice – first, landing a role at EY New York out of undergrad, then at McKinsey New York out of my MBA. Both are among the most competitive offices in North America and I know exactly what it takes to earn a seat at each • A deep understanding of the recruiting playbook. Consulting interviews can feel intimidating, but the truth is they're quite formulaic. Once you understand the mechanics of the case, the behavioral, and the networking piece, the whole process becomes far less overwhelming • A coaching style built on candor and empathy. I give honest, actionable feedback because that's what actually moves the needle. But I also understand the self-doubt many candidates carry because I’ve been there Ready to make it happen? Let's get to work on landing the consulting role you've been dreaming of!

I’ve helped 30+ candidates prepare for case interviews and navigate the consulting recruiting process. From structuring and mental math to brainstorming, synthesis, and overall case communication, I’ll help you identify your gaps and build a focused preparation plan. Whether you're just starting case prep or approaching final-round interviews, we’ll meet you where you are, sharpen your casing skills, and build a strategy to help you land the offer.

Coming from an advertising sales background, I had never seen a case-style interview before. I learned how to case from scratch and cater my approach to the unique traits each firm was looking for. As a coach, I do not take a one-size-fits-all approach - I customize what we focus on based on your strengths and weaknesses and the specific firms you're targeting. As a second-year MBA student at UChicago Booth, I case-prep first-year students from all different kinds of backgrounds and have helped them secure MBB offers. This past summer, I was an MBA summer consultant at BCG in NYC, working on the consumer team. I secured a full-time return offer and will return to BCG upon graduation.

Let me be your MBB sherpa! 😊Like a sherpa, I am an expert at helping you navigate the dizzying terrain of MBB life (both recruiting and post-accpetance). My three biggest value-adds are: (1) case interviewing - to this day I still case interview applicants; (2) MBB reviews: I love to dispell the myths and rumors you may have encountered on forums like Reddit; (3) Role-fit assessment: providing honest feedback on whether an MBB career aligns with your goals. SInce I was cross-offered between BCG and McKinsey I spent an immense amount of time studying the two firms. At McKinsey I continued to do this as I focused on helping cross-offerees understand the differences among MBB. Even before starting at McKinsey, I was helping peers break into MBB by being a paid case interviewer at Wharton (where I completed my JD/MBA degree from The Wharton School and University of Pennsylvania Law School). I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to my coaching. At McKinsey, I specialized in growth and efficiency studies and was trained as an interviewer, providing me with deep insights into the consulting recruitment process. Over the years, I've successfully coached dozens of MBB prospects, helping them navigate the complexities of case interviews to secure positions at top consulting firms. I particularly enjoy spending serious time explaining the differences between the firms (based off my own dilligence when cross-offered as well as from my current ex-MBB colleagues). My recent McKinsey alumunus status perfectly positions me to provide relevant insights on how to master the consulting case interview, objectively decide between MBB firms, and optimize your MBB experience (particularly at McKinsey). I enjoy talking about all facets of MBB recruiting and MBB life - nothing is off limits (e.g., what should one actually expect, how does McK staffing work in practice). The latter topic of McKinsey staffing is particularly interesting to me as I always self-staffed (apart from the summer internship). Moreover, as an alumnus who sitll uses case interviews I have recruited several ex-MBB consultants. This allows me to continue to gain insights on any Firm updates, confirm differences in how the MBB firms operate, and comment on what to expect post-MBB. Whether you're looking to refine your interview skills or need comprehensive application support, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

Few things will improve your skills like receiving advice from people who lived the experience! I have a proven history of getting candidates into McKinsey and top-tier MBA programs. I specialize in case prep, behavioral interview prep, resume overhauls, and long-term career strategy. I frequently was told my coaching transformed people's approach and unlocked their competitive edge—let's do the same for you :)

I help candidates break into top management consulting firms by coaching on recruiting strategy, resumes, networking, behavioral interviews, and case interviews. At BCG, I led Cornell MBA intern recruiting, coordinated with 24 U.S. offices, and personally vetted 93 candidates. That experience gave me firsthand insight into how top consulting firms evaluate applicants, what separates strong candidates from average ones, and where qualified candidates often fall short during recruiting or interviews. My own path into consulting was nontraditional. Before earning my MBA with distinction from Cornell, I worked in construction project management and later joined Deloitte as a Summer Associate before moving to BCG. At BCG, my client work spanned growth strategy, financial transformation, analytics, automation, and enterprise transformation. I use experience from both sides of the recruiting process to help candidates position themselves effectively, prepare deliberately, and compete for offers at BCG, McKinsey, Bain, Deloitte, EY-P / EY, Strategy& / PwC, Accenture, L.E.K., Oliver Wyman, Kearney, and other leading or boutique consulting firms.
