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.

In every single season of The Consulting Offer female PhDs have dominated the show through their skills, learning pace and performance.

And they have all been foreign. Two are Chinese and one is Nigerian.

In this podcast we discuss why this may be the case. Why does this one group do so well over MBAs and undergraduates despite the general consensus that PhDs are weaker in cases.

This is a frustrating topic for many reasons. You will see it cropping up in TCO III a lot, and hurting one participant significantly.

Therefore, we want to address this topic via a podcast and hope it never comes up again.

Too many clients want to use a resume format because it (1) looks good, (2) was recommended by the school, (3) they spent a lot of time on it, (4) it is a better use of space or (5) they cannot understand why it should change. In this podcast we explain why a bad (in your opinion) resume format needs to be evaluated using very different metrics.

This is an important podcast. Listen to it.

Most firms only talk about their successful clients. They talk about clients who end up joining McKinsey, BCG and Bain (MBB).

We are different.

We believe it is important to talk about those case interview coaching clients who did not make it. 29.9% of our clients wanted to join McKinsey, BCG and Bain but ended up in industry, other consulting firms or government.

What happened?
Who is accountable for this result?
Is it an error?
What could we have done better?
Is a 100% placement rate for MBB even possible, while brining in development candidates?

We discuss all of the above and more in this brutally honest podcast.

Note: Our placement rate fluctuates all the time as we have case interview coaching clients going through case interview process with MBB on a continuous basis. So at various points of time, even within the same week, you may see a different placement rate being reported. However, the placement rate for MBB is hovering around 70%, which is the highest in the industry.
