Ashwin is extremely helpful and dedicates significant time to walking through both your strengths and areas for growth with detailed, specific feedback.

Ashwin takes a comprehensive and thoughtful approach to feedback. I walked away feeling more confident and better prepared for case interviews. Would absolutely work with him again.

Mervi was super helpful in helping me improve casing. She is very detail oriented and provides feedback in a very logical manner that is easy to understand and improve on. Highly recommend!

Sissi is a tranquil yet fiery force to be reckoned with, and my life is forever changed for having worked with her. While it’s common to have people in your life who believe in you, and even those who push you to step out of your comfort zone, it’s not often that you encounter someone who also has the specific expertise and industry knowledge to help you operationalize your goals (a testament to Leland’s incredibly accurate pairing system.) I came to Leland with a unique query: how do I leverage an academic science career to build a new trajectory that enables me to work across various creative industries? I’ve struggled for years to piece together seemingly disparate interests, skills, and passions, and have often been told that I need to “choose a lane.” Sissi refuted this from the very beginning, and helped me to internalize the power that can be harnessed when you don’t pick a single lane and instead center that which aligns with your internal compass and brings you joy. From the very start, Sissi asked thought-provoking questions that helped me to dispel old beliefs and strengthen myself with new perspectives on myself and my career. Each session was optimized to make the most of every minute, and I left with pages of notes filled with both small and large strategies that I will continue to deploy in the years to come. I walk away with multiple strong resumes that highlight my skills across industries, an amazing LinkedIn profile that is optimized to drive traffic to my page, and countless strategies for creating online visibility in a rapidly changing world. I’ve found a sense of confidence in my skills and unique value proposition, and I have already seen big changes in my life as a result: namely, multiple contracts across creative industries that, even 6 months ago, I had only dreamed of being part of. I leave my coaching experience with Sissi with a newly refined mindset and approach to my career that will enable me to enact some of my wildest dreams. I have a clear path to walk, and I have the skills and resources to help me reach new heights. I will forever be grateful to have Sissi in my corner!

Joe is very supportive and knowledgeable in terms of what Strategy and Operations interviews are looking for. He would prepare targeted case questions and behavioral questions related to the company and help me navigate the best way to answer them!

It's been a pleasure to work with Steven throughout my undergrad recruiting journey. He's been there for me through the ups and downs -- his knowledge about casing/MBB interview prep has a blend of nuanced insights and tactical feedback/next steps. Would recommend if you want to go from good to great!

I have been very fortunate to work with Jörn. Coming from an international background, trying to enter a foreign job market created a lot of uncertainty, I didn’t really know where to start. Jörn, however, took a systematic approach, guiding me through our sessions to tackle the challenge effectively. What I especially appreciated is that the sessions were not unilateral, where a coach simply gives you clarity, but interactive and collaborative. We searched, analysed, and worked together to achieve our goals. I completed the package of sessions with much more confidence and motivation.

Zack was instrumental in helping me transition from investment banking into an operating role as VP of Finance at a startup. He understands the landscape exceptionally well and gives practical, actionable guidance grounded in real experience. Most importantly, he genuinely cares about your success — he goes above and beyond to support you. I highly recommend working with him.
