Hello there!

About a year ago, I began my application to consulting firms such as McKinsey, BCG and Bain. The process was pretty daunting. For starters, consulting interviews are objectively tough. While there are tons of resources out there, the good ones are few and far between. Some of these resources require you to pay large fees to access them! (I’m just a college student…). COVID had just hit, and the entire application process had undergone significant changes too.

Fast forward a few months later, I was fortunate to have received numerous offers. This would not be possible without the help of my seniors, peers and people around me. Their time, advice and lessons shared were extremely useful in allowing me to navigate this daunting process.

This is why I have I have written a series of posts detailing my experiences and tips for the Management consulting application process (Tailored to the South East Asia region). By sharing my experience, I hope that I can pay it forward, demystifying the process for any aspiring applicant, making it a little less daunting, and showing that it is definitely achievable with a huge dose of hard work and commitment.
