Case Interview Preparation & Management Consulting | Strategy | Critical Thinking

We have a 80% success rate at placing clients within McKinsey, BCG and Bain. This is the highest in the industry and the rate is higher if we include other firms. We achieve this rate because we only use former partners from McKinsey, BCG et al. to develop our clients. This makes us unique. This podcast channel describes our lessons selecting 2-4 clients annually, training them, and recording their entire experience to join McKinsey etc. Get free access to our newsletter, Monday Morning at 8 am, along with sample episodes from our training programs on www.strategytraining.com.

This detailed podcast introduces Firmsconsulting and our distinctive heritage which is best exemplified by these three quotes: "Business properly conducted could be as high a calling as anything." Marvin Bower "If you are not willing to take pain to live by your principles, there is no point in having principles." Marvin Bower “Management consulting is no individual's right as a career. It is the single greatest privilege of a business professional to earn the trust required to advise a client on his/her most pressing issues.” Michael Boricki

Peter is a PhD candidate from the USA who joined McKinsey Middle East a year ago. The striking thing about Peter is his level of confidence and the fact that he does not sound like a PhD. He is a candidate who initially pursued the USA and thereafter opened interviews at another highly competitive office where he was successful. Peters interview is more for the journey he goes through to build his confidence and learn about his potential. I have personally admired this candidate because he seems to closely follow the strong values-based path Firmsconsulting expects of our alums.

Edward is one of the most effective networking clients in our program. Although a relatively-older candidate from a non-target school, he was able to meticulously follow our advice on networking to eventually build a very effective support network of partners and consultants at his preferred offices. This wide-ranging interview is important because it demonstrates the primacy of our networking approach. Firmsconsulting believes that if you take the time to do the appropriate due-diligence and build sincere reasons for joining an office, this sincerity will come through in any discussions. It is interesting to see how Edward developed this approach over a 5 month period through trial and error to eventually secure strong endorsements from very senior partners. On a personal note, I do believe Edward is one of the most impressive alums of our program. He is steeped in our tradition of values and ethics before all else and to us, that is what matters the most.
