Coming out of college, Jonathan played an instrumental role in helping me decide on my career path. At the time, I was a bit scattered, weighing different opportunities across corporate banking, consulting, and business development. Jonathan, with kindness and empathy, walked me through my options, helped me assess the long-term career opportunities each could offer, and how they might look a few years down the line. Now, over four years removed from college, I can say with confidence that Jonathan was wise beyond his years. His advice to pursue consulting, where I could explore my intellectual curiosity and gain exposure to various industries, was spot-on. I couldn’t be more grateful for his guidance and wholeheartedly recommend him.

Cathy is a brilliant coach. She worked with me to adjust my applications and interview style for several top European and UK MBA programs. She boosted my confidence, empowered and refined my view of myself, challenged me to own my weaknesses (truly own them) and present a coherent strategy to the admissions offices. From her review of my written applications to mock interviews I felt comfortable working with Cathy and that every cent that I spent was worth its value (and more!) In all seriousness this is non negligible expense, but it was 100% worth it. I could not recommend her more.

Anna was very helpful with prep for my HBS interview. With her help, I felt very comfortable during the interview and was accepted to HBS.

I worked with Telli as a research assistant when she was a graduate student at Boston University. Telli was responsible for introducing me to a new field (Developmental Psychology) and my experience with her helped me develop my interests and eventually apply and get into a PhD program in the same field. Telli is everything you would want in a mentor and more-- not only is she knowledgeable about the field and passionate, she is kind, supportive, and keeps your best interests in mind. She is wonderful at identifying her mentees' strengths and honing them. She is invested in the success and growth of her mentees. Working with her has been of the most positive and uplifting experiences in research for me and it is one of the main reasons why I pursued graduate school. I recommend Telli very highly and know that her future mentees are so lucky to have her in their corner.

I had the privilege of working with Telli on a major research project during my time as a master's student. It was the best team experience I’ve ever had, largely because Telli was both our leader and my mentor. I cannot recommend Telli highly enough as a mentor. Her unwavering support and kindness have profoundly impacted my life. She’s always available to listen, offering not just professional guidance but also personal encouragement. Telli's genuine care and patience have helped me grow and build confidence in my abilities. She is not only highly knowledgeable but also incredibly kind, making her an exceptional mentor.

Great coach with a strong understanding of the consulting recruiting process. He helped me out with both case and behavioral interview preparation. Alvaro gives no-bs and direct feedback to give you the opportunity to improve quickly. Highly recommend him!

Varun was an excellent mentor throughout my case preparation process and instrumental in my success during interviews. He was able to provide the right level of guidance based on my current level of understanding and push me to improve each session. Whether it be hard skills like mathematics & business acumen or soft skills such as case interview etiquette, I would strongly recommend Varun as a coach for the Leland platform.

Eli is one of the nicest, most professional academic counselors I have ever known and she is an amazing application coach. I know many of my classmates who thanked her personally for helping them prepare their applications and figure out what to apply for after undergrad. Eli is very familiar with the admissions process at multiple levels. I highly recommend her especially for people thinking about going back to school after working or taking time away from college because she is particularly great with mature and non-traditional students.

Alvaro was instrumental in my recruiting process. Beyond just an incredibly dedicated and committed person, Alvaro was incredibly organized and structured in his approach to mentorship. He greatly improved my casing skills through pinpointing key problem areas as well as providing actionable next steps and resources to improve my weaknesses. Beyond his incredible competency in both behavioral and case interview guidance, he has an in-depth understanding the recruiting process from a prospective candidate's perspective, not only just helping improve my skills but also my approach and mentality to recruiting for the better to become a stronger candidate. I strongly vouch for Alvaro, he's absolutely amazing.

Ever is an exceptional coach. His guidance spans from career mentorship to meticulous preparation of application materials and interview strategies. His concise and targeted feedback was instrumental in securing my role as a Technical Consultant at a leading tech firm. I cannot recommend him highly enough for his ability to help you present your best work and achieve your professional goals.
