Management Consulting Coaches

Voted a Top 10 coach on Leland, I’ve helped candidates land offers at McKinsey, Bain, and BCG. During my time as a consultant at BCG, I was deeply involved in recruiting, including leading undergraduate recruiting for my office and spearheading recruiting efforts for my alma mater, Dartmouth. I also interviewed with both McKinsey and Bain. Now, I work with candidates to strengthen cover letters and resumes and to excel in both case and behavioral interviews for consulting roles. I specialize in a fundamentals-based case method style, teaching students how to approach cases in a logical and repeatable way.

I have worked in consulting in various places. I have gotten 2/3 MBB offers, and interviewed at all 3 MBB. I have also worked in smaller boutiques, and have done some independent consulting as well. I have spent over 8 months prepping, and have prepped others who have went to Bain, BCG, McKinsey, Kearney, EY< LEK, Deloitte, and more.

With over 8 years of experience at Kearney, where I advanced from Business Analyst to Manager, I have honed my expertise in market entry, growth strategy, and innovation across various industries including prestige beauty, retail, and technology. I played an active role in recruiting and conducted first and final round interviews - which means I know exactly what the consultancies are looking for. As a Wharton MBA graduate and former member of the admissions committee, I bring a unique perspective to help you craft compelling applications and excel in interviews. Whether you're looking to break into consulting or advance your career, I'm here to provide comprehensive support. Let's connect and strategize your path to success!

I am a thought leader in the space (450K+ students and professionals educated via LinkedIn content). I received offers from McKinsey, Bain, and BCG in the U.S., BCG Copenhagen, and was one of the 1st BCG interns offered to work part-time prior to graduation. In Summer 2025, my candidates received 25+ offers at firms like McKinsey, Bain, BCG, LEK, Capital One, AQR, etc. That is 1+ offer a week. I've advised students from 50+ universities across 6 continents, and generated access to $10M+ in wages for my candidates.

I began my career in management consulting, where I worked on high-impact strategy projects and learned firsthand the skills top firms look for in candidates. Combined with my Stanford MBA and leadership experience scaling PE-backed businesses, I bring both the consulting toolkit and the operator’s perspective to my coaching. I’ve helped clients successfully prepare for the full recruiting cycle—networking, resume crafting, behavioral interviews, and of course, case interviews. My approach focuses on not only acing the mechanics of the case but also demonstrating the judgment, structure, and executive presence consulting firms value. Whether you’re targeting MBB or boutique firms, I’ll help you stand out with confidence and clarity.

Hey there! Welcome to my profile. At McKinsey & Company, I've worn the hat of an Engagement Manager, helping clients navigate complex challenges with strategic insights. With an MBA from INSEAD and a Bachelor's in Computer Science from Nanyang Technological University, my journey has spanned data science, software engineering, and now, coaching aspirants through the consulting application maze. I specialize in prepping for those infamous case interviews, fine-tuning resumes and cover letters, and honing your interview skills to perfection. Let's team up to craft your roadmap to consulting success—reach out, and let's dive in!

In Fall 2017, I was able to secure an offer from McKinsey (the only consulting firm to which I applied, actually!) after being "late to the game" of consulting recruiting. Since then, I have practiced cases and otherwise advised dozens of candidates. I can help candidates focus on the most salient skills for successful recruiting in this industry.

I have successfully coached 30+ candidates into leading management and strategy consulting firms. My coaching approach is highly personalized and tailored, ensuring you are not only fully prepared for case interviews but also able to stand out in behavioral interviews by clearly articulating your unique experiences and impact.

I'm Maryam, a Wharton MBA (Class of 2026) and incoming BCG consultant in San Francisco, with prior experience advising Fortune 500 clients at Accenture. I've lived the consulting recruiting process from every angle: as a candidate who cracked it for the summer internship and got a return offer, and as someone who has spent years working with MBB consultants and knowing what the best firms look for. Breaking into management consulting is one of the most demanding recruiting processes out there, but more importantly, one of the most coachable. The difference between candidates who get offers and those who don't rarely comes down to intelligence. It comes down to how clearly you can structure your thinking, how compellingly you tell your story, and how confidently you show up. Those are things you can build, and I can help you build them. Whether you're preparing for case interviews, refining your personal narrative, navigating the networking side of recruiting, or figuring out how to position a non-traditional background, I'll bring both the insider knowledge and the honest feedback you need to put your best foot forward. I know what BCG and firms like it are looking for, because that's where I'll be full-time!
