The four steps in detail
What we work on at each step.
Position
Know where to aim and make your value obvious.
Before you apply anywhere, decide where you can realistically win and make that obvious on paper.
- A target list across MBB, Tier 2 strategy firms, Big Four strategy practices and boutiques
- The right office and entry level for your profile
- A CV and LinkedIn that read as consulting evidence
- A one-minute story that ties it together
Connect
Turn applications into a campaign.
Most offers start with a conversation. Turn networking into a plan rather than a series of cold messages.
- Who to talk to at each firm and office
- Outreach that leads with a real question
- Where a referral matters, and how to earn one
- An application timeline you can actually keep
Land
Perform in interviews and secure the offer.
Interviews reward structured thinking under pressure, which is built through practice with people who have interviewed for real.
- Case interviews in the format your target firm uses
- Fit stories that survive the follow-up questions
- Offer evaluation, including level, package and Gulf allowances
- A negotiation plan, rehearsed before the call
Progress
Succeed once you are in.
Getting into consulting is hard. Staying in consulting can be even harder. This is the part most coaching stops before.
- Your first 90 days: learn how the team works and own something early
- Reviews, feedback and how performance decisions are made
- Staffing, managers and partners
- When and how to make the case for promotion
