Build a resume to pass the consulting screen
A consulting recruiter gives your resume a few seconds. Most resumes spend them listing what the person was responsible for, so the thinking never shows. In this package we build a resume that gives them every reason to say yes in those first few seconds. I broke into consulting as a non-target, then worked at BCG, Oliver Wyman, and Deloitte. So I've been the candidate trying to get noticed, and I've sat inside these firms reviewing resumes as well. We'll build yours together, line by line, until it reads like a consultant's. HOW IT WORKS - Before we start, you send me your current resume and the firms and roles you're going after - In session 1 we pick the story your resume should tell, and I mark up what's working and what's costing you the screen - Between sessions you address the feedback and rewrite - In the final session we polish it, check it against your target firms, and finalize WHAT WE WORK ON - Turning "responsible for" into what you actually achieved, with numbers where you have them - Showing structured thinking, problem solving and leadership, since that's what consulting screens look for - Deciding what to lead with and what to cut, so it fits one clean page - Tailoring for MBB, Big 4 or boutiques, whether you're a student, MBA candidate, career switcher, or lateral hire - Format and ATS basics, so it gets past the first filter WHAT YOU WALK AWAY WITH - A finished, send-ready consulting resume - Bullet rewrites you can reuse for future applications - A simple way to tailor it to each firm in minutes - A clear sense of how your resume fits into networking, interviews, and applications Not sure where your resume stands?

What's included
We work on your resume together, in real time. In our live sessions we go line by line, so you see why each change makes it stronger and can apply the same thinking to future bullets. Between sessions you rewrite, and in the final session we polish it. I'm direct about what's working and what isn't, and I'll always explain why. I've been where you are, and I've worked inside these firms. You get practical, honest guidance from someone who knows what these screens reward, not a template.
- A finished, send-ready consulting resume built around your strongest story
- Rewritten bullets that show impact and structured thinking, not just responsibilities
- A clear plan for how your resume fits into networking, interviews and applications

Break In as a Non-Target! | Former BCG, Oliver Wyman & Deloitte Consultant
I grew up on the East Coast, studied in Boston, and spent most of my adult life in San Francisco before a year-long sabbatical brought me to New Zealand. I fell in love with the country and made the move at the start of 2025. I still travel regularly between New Zealand and the US. Both worlds feel like home now. I spent a decade in consulting and tech in the Bay Area. But beyond my professional identity, I've always thought of myself as an artist too. I paint, and that instinct for creativity carries into how I work with clients. I'm also a 200-hour certified yoga instructor. Years of practicing yoga and meditating across different countries changed how I think about decisions, resilience, and what good judgment actually looks like under pressure. Now I coach full time and invest in the New Zealand startup ecosystem. I work with ambitious people who are usually at a crossroads between where they've been and where they know they want to go. If that sounds familiar, I'd love to connect. When I'm not working, you can find me painting, on the tennis court, in a fitness class, or out hiking and camping somewhere in the beautiful New Zealand outdoors.
