Management Consulting Coaches, Events, and Resources

As someone who just recently went through the consulting recruiting process (in 2025), I know exactly what advice is still good and what guidance is outdated. After running 150+ cases, I understand what case interview performances equate to a life-changing offer. I also know how you can get there while investing much less time. Wherever you are in your casing confidence, I can take your abilities to the next level!

Hi, I’m Annika Friesen, an ICF-certified coach, entrepreneur, and former Bain consultant. I bring a unique perspective as both a post-MBA and industry hire.

Throughout my career, whether advising clients at Bain or coaching candidates and executives, I’ve been passionate about helping people make bold moves and transform their lives.

During my 4 years at the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), I got the chance to work across a number of industries (healthcare, financial services, public sector) as well as all over Europe, the US and Australia. Coming from a non-business background, I understand what it means to navigate the competitive landscape of management consulting. I have taught myself how to successfully pass the interview stages (both behavioral and case studies) and everything you need to know once on the job. Excited to support you in your journey!

I have coached over 15 people over the last year and a half. I have a track record of success, with 80% of my clients landing offers at Bain, BCG, and McKinsey. My main expertise falls under consulting diversity programs, internships, and entry-level roles.

I've guided several businesses through the early stages of revenue growth. From establishing validation of their idea, identifying their ICP and strategizing on their go-to-market game plan, don't make the same mistakes that other companies have had to. Once this foundation is set, the work of building structured and scalable teams, systems and processes is next. Tools and tech stacks are then introduced, but require fundamental understanding of how they're going to be used at scale. Then comes tailored and impactful messaging, scripts and collateral. Once we have sales opportunities to start the funnel and pipeline, I will ensure efficiency throughout the customer journey with sales, and beyond into implementation and customer success. Strategy building and training on growth and expansion efforts round out the revenue cycle. This process scales as the business grows. My experience as a founder and mastering this process through various companies in SaaS, serving 10+ industries has solidified the process, the roadmap and the outcome.
