About this episode

Consulting case interviews, office selection: McKinsey, BCG, Bain

This episode is a short piece from a full session available to FC Insiders on StrategyTraining website and apps.

NEW PILOT INITIATIVE - One-on-one advice session with Michael: As many of you know, we have a long waiting list for private coaching with Michael, over 3 years, and a very stringent selection process, very few people are selected. However, we launched a pilot initiative within which a few spots are available now.

You are welcome to apply for a one-on-one advice session with Michael. Can be regarding any aspect of your career: helping you develop your career plan, getting Michael's input on specific career challenge you are facing, getting advice on growing/starting your own business, preparing for case interviews, lessons from Lisa's journey to her greencard, etc.

To make sure it is a win-win, the advice session is recorded and made available to the FIRMSconsulting community and/or becomes part of FC training content. Additionally, a fee is charged to make this more of a win-win for both parties. This also ensures the seriousness of candidates.

This is a very rare opportunity to do a one-on-one session with Michael. If your application is approved you can request additional sessions after your first session, subject to availability. Contact support@firmsconsulting.com for more details and to apply.
