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.

Between 17 January 2013 and 30 January 2013 we will be rolling out some significant and exciting changes to the website. Many of these changes coincide with the premier of Season Two of the Consulting Offer, and are useful because they make the material easier to watch, interact with and learn from. We will also be making changes to the way club members and clients access the material. We spent a long time thinking about these changes and while they will impact many members, remain completely aligned with our core values of treating all clients fairly.
