When I started working with Alex, I was at a low point in my casing journey. This was my third time recruiting for an MBB firm and my second attempt at McKinsey after failed Super Days during my MBA program. I had already worked with two different MBB professionals-turned-coaches, but their conflicting styles and guidance left me more confused and ultimately shattered my confidence. I decided to reach out to Alex because of our shared background as military veterans and his McKinsey experience. From the beginning, I felt I could trust him with this important investment—and I’m glad I did. Alex guided me through McKinsey-style cases and helped me unlock several breakthroughs: 1. Structuring: Give yourself freedom with drivers as long as you cover the entire problem with broad strokes. 2. Math: Stop multitasking and trying to write down the givens while the interviewer speaks. Just listen fully to start breaking down the problem mentally before structuring on paper. 3. Charts: Push deeper for insights that connect back to the problem or advance the hypothesis. Equally important, Alex worked with me to refine my PEI stories until I felt fully confident walking into that half of the process. Thanks to Alex's help with my PEI's, I really felt that I was starting at 50% rather than 0. A great coach’s value isn’t just in knowing the mechanics—plenty can do that. The best coaches help you recognize how you’re getting in your own way, then provide the tools and mindset shifts to break through. That’s exactly what Alex did for me. Thanks to him, I was able to correct a lot of bad habits, stop second-guessing myself, and regain confidence in myself.

This session was extremely informative and offered many tips that I had not heard in similar sessions.

Jacob gave me very detailed feedback on my resume that reflected great attention to detail. I would really recommend meeting with him!

Connor prepared a prompt perfectly suited for my interview process and supported me while I completed it. He is very patient and knowledgeable. I only wish I had started preparing with him earlier.

Bria was an absolutely amazing coach! Made it feel like I was the only one on her schedule, while I'm sure she had plenty of other clients, businesses, and students to be working with at the same time. We met in person and she quickly figured out my interview style, encouraging me to STAND rather than sit in interviews (it worked!). She gave helpful deadlines for me to build interview notecards, essay edits and the data visualization. She also helped me get comfortable in uncomfortable situations (making ME choose the answer to questions I'd ask, then she'd give me her advice). AND super affordable compared to other coaches on this platform. Worth every penny!

Matthew is brilliantly smart, authentic and manages to understand where you are at, and where you want to be and what you need for the in-between. I provided me with frameworks, examples, feedback on my CV, cover letter, executive summary, interview asks and preparation. I have felt very seen my him and supported. I am so glad we connected. I highly recommend Matthew for your coaching needs!

I worked with Steven for over a year on interview coaching, and his advice was absolutely invaluable throughout the entire process. He provided incredibly thoughtful guidance across a wide range of topics, from product and project management to even areas slightly outside his core expertise, always offering strong foundational insights that helped me approach each interview with confidence. Steven’s ability to adapt, break down complex topics, and provide actionable feedback made a huge difference in my preparation. Highly recommend working with him!

Ian is an excellent coach and I recommend him to anyone looking to break into consulting! Ian wasted no time getting right into the training and helped me quickly identify weaknesses and strengths I wasn't aware of. He was especially detail oriented and after a few sessions I saw rapid improvement in my performance. With his help, I passed every single interview I participated in and received an offer from my top choice in consulting, BCG. You cannot go wrong with Ian!

Jeremy was so helpful throughout the process! He was really attuned to all it takes to be successful and helped me develop strategies for everything required to succeed. I passed every interview I participated in with Jeremy's help!

Ethan was very flexible to meet with me last minute and provided very knowledgeable answers!
