Sreya was incredibly supportive throughout my interview prep process. She always came to our mock sessions prepared with tailored, challenging questions that pushed me to think deeply about my responses. Because of our preparation, I found my actual interview to be surprisingly manageable. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for targeted and accurate interview prep!

I worked with Kevin on my MFE applications to Oxford and Cambridge. What sets him apart is his ability to find the strongest version of your story: he identified angles in my work experience that I had completely overlooked and helped me build an essay around them. Beyond the content, he creates a space where the stress of applications feels manageable. I left every session clearer and more confident than when I started. If you're applying to a competitive programme and want someone who genuinely invests in your success, Kevin is an exceptionally optimistic and cheerful coach!

Fortunately, I met Abigail before my PhD interview. I had no idea what to expect. Abigail's friendly but also concrete approach helped me prepare for the interview in the best possible way and, above all, helped me overcome my nervousness.

I was skeptical of someone helping tell my story and confused/overwhelmed by all the "coaching" out there. Gosh- i still get adds for Stacey Blackman Consulting. If you're like me, still on the fence with a general distrust for "consulting," please trust me--work with Ian, He sifts through the noise and helps your best self come to light. His process strips away all the surface-level parts of you that you think you need to be, or what the world might expect you to be, only to reveal the most powerful story there is-- yours. He never tried to change who I am; instead, he provided the strategic foundation that allowed my story to actually make sense to an outside audience. He has a gift for taking raw ideas and shaping them into a narrative that is not only cohesive but significantly more impactful than what I had originally envisioned.

Melanie was an exceptional coach throughout my MBA application journey. As a CBS alumna and interviewer, she brings a rare insider perspective on how admissions committees evaluate candidates and what truly makes an application stand out. Her guidance was structured, insightful, and extremely practical. As an international applicant, I initially found it challenging to clearly articulate my story and motivations. Melanie helped me refine my narrative, connect my experiences more cohesively, and communicate my decision-making with clarity and confidence. Her feedback was always strategic and honest, and it made a meaningful difference in my interview preparation. What I appreciated most was how she challenged my thinking while remaining incredibly supportive. She pushed me to express my motivations and career decisions with greater depth, which ultimately helped me present a much stronger and more authentic profile. Beyond her professional expertise, Melanie is also a genuinely kind and generous person. I’m very grateful for her guidance throughout this process and would highly recommend her coaching services to anyone applying to top MBA programs.

I highly recommend working with Greg! After writing drafts for a Sustainability Masters program, I needed help getting my essays over the line. Greg approached the editing process thoughtfully, reading some of my previous writing and closely looking at my entire application to ultimately give me both constructive feedback and support to help me feel more confident. The turnaround was also quick and ahead of my timeline! I ended up getting into the program and receiving nearly $50,000 worth of scholarship. Thank you, Greg!

I had a great experience working with Geri to prep for my HBS interview! After our session, I had a clear understanding of my strengths and areas for improvement — and her feedback proved directly applicable when it counted most. I'd highly recommend Geri to anyone looking for thoughtful, effective interview support.

Geri was wonderful. She struck the perfect balance of supportive advocacy and direct candor necessary to make the improvements needed for the MBA interview. Her HBS Course was exactly what I needed to prepare, and she stood ready to jump on the post-interview reflection despite the short turnaround timeline. After our mock interview, she provided an extremely thorough document dissecting the strengths and shortcomings of each response, as well insight into what to focus on to prepare.

I purchased the comprehensive packages for two schools. For the package, Geri helped me with my MIT Sloan and HBS applications. As someone from a non-traditional background, I could not have asked for a better coach to guide me through the whole MBA application process. She is an extremely professional, knowledgeable, and caring coach who helped make my application as strong as possible. Furthermore, she helped my Letters of Recommendations to make them as strong as possible. Highly recommend Geri as a coach as she brings a very structured approach to the application process and breaks everything down into an easy-to-follow timeline. Even though my comprehensive was for Sloan and HBS, everything I learned from Geri was very helpful for the rest of my applications. Unfortunately, I was not lucky with Sloan and HBS, but Geri still checks in on me with my waitlisted schools, showing that she is a very caring coach!

Johnny has been an incredible coach throughout my MBA application journey. As a first-generation college graduate working in the public sector, I had a lot of raw material but wasn't sure how to shape it into a compelling narrative. What sets Johnny apart is how polished and strategic his approach is, he went above and beyond by building out a full roadmap covering application strategy, resume positioning, recommender strategy, and differentiating themes that tie my entire story together. He pushed me to articulate my goals with real specificity, and working with him, I feel confident and "zoned-in" on my next steps. He's also genuinely warm and invested, he meets you where you are. If you're a first-gen or non-traditional applicant feeling overwhelmed by the MBA process, Johnny is the coach you want in your corner.
