Management Consulting Coaches, Events, and Resources

I’m a former McKinsey Business Analyst with experience on both sides of the table, as a successful applicant and as a recruiter. I know what MBB and other top firms are looking for, and how to help you stand out. While at McKinsey, I led campus recruiting efforts for WashU, where I evaluated hundreds of consulting candidates. I ran case prep workshops, reviewed resumes, and 1:1 coaching sessions to prepare students for the rigorous interview process. Internally, I also led a hiring accelerator for a client where I built the hiring rubrics, screened applications, and advised executives on who to interview and hire, giving me firsthand insight into how firms make hiring decisions. Today, I’m on Google’s Business Operations & Strategy team — a small, high-impact group that drives cross-functional AI strategy across the company. As a coach, I’ve helped 50+ candidates land offers. My background at a top consulting firm and tech companies allow me to help you tell a compelling story, sharpen your candidacy, network efficiently, and build a personalized recruiting game plan. Coaching is deeply personal for me. I wouldn’t be where I am today without the mentors who invested in me, and I love paying that forward. Whether you're navigating your first consulting application or pushing for a final-round breakthrough, I’d love to help you land the job.

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 :)

Thanks for taking time to learn a bit more about me. With more than 15 years of experience in strategic talent acquisition roles at top tier firms like Bain & Company and McKinsey & Company, I bring a wealth of knowledge to help you navigate the competitive landscape of management consulting. Having previously recruited for experienced and leadership level talent, and also having led recruiting teams globally at both firms, I have unique insights into what these firms seek in candidates as well as the interview processes they utilize. And in my first career as a strategy consultant, I worked at KPMG and BCG in addition to a boutique health tech consultancy and a health tech start up so I possess a wide variety of experience across different consultancy settings. Whether you're trying to decide which firm is the best fit for you, preparing for interviews or refining your application strategy, I'm here to provide insider insights and guide you every step of the way. Let's connect and craft a plan to achieve your consulting career goals!

Whilst at McKinsey, I was awarded as Top Coach across Europe, Middle East & Africa in 2023. So putting that all together, I know exactly what it takes to be successful in MBB interviews, and I know how to get YOU there!

I know what it feels like to struggle with consulting interviews—because I’ve been there. When I first started casing, I felt anxious and stuck. I froze, convinced there was some hidden formula I just couldn’t unlock. Everything changed when I realized consulting interviews aren’t about memorizing frameworks—they’re about how you approach problems. Once I focused on genuinely solving the case, my confidence grew, my performance improved, and interviews became something I looked forward to instead of feared. I’ve walked the full consulting path—from earning admission to Yale’s 2+2 MBA program, to landing an offer at McKinsey, to coaching peers through the same process. Along the way, I’ve also worked in tech product management at Microsoft and founded my own startup, which means I can not only coach you through consulting interviews but also help you compare paths across industries. As your coach, I’ll meet you where you are—whether you’re just starting with frameworks, refining your math, or seeking partner-level feedback. I bring both empathy and experience: I know the stress and self-doubt of casing, and I know how to help you unlock the mindset shift that builds real confidence. My goal is to help you not just “crack the case,” but walk into every interview with clarity and self-belief.

I'm Maryam, a Wharton MBA (Class of 2026) and incoming BCG consultant in San Francisco, with prior experience advising Fortune 500 clients at Accenture. I've lived the consulting recruiting process from every angle: as a candidate who cracked it for the summer internship and got a return offer, and as someone who has spent years working with MBB consultants and knowing what the best firms look for. Breaking into management consulting is one of the most demanding recruiting processes out there, but more importantly, one of the most coachable. The difference between candidates who get offers and those who don't rarely comes down to intelligence. It comes down to how clearly you can structure your thinking, how compellingly you tell your story, and how confidently you show up. Those are things you can build, and I can help you build them. Whether you're preparing for case interviews, refining your personal narrative, navigating the networking side of recruiting, or figuring out how to position a non-traditional background, I'll bring both the insider knowledge and the honest feedback you need to put your best foot forward. I know what BCG and firms like it are looking for, because that's where I'll be full-time!
