Cover letter advice

Hi guys,

I need some advice on writing a cover letter; this is my first time applying to a consulting position, and I'm quite lost, to be honest. I'm applying to the Oliver Wyman Riyadh office as an analyst.

I currently work in a big tech startup as CX, and I always wanted to do consulting as a career but never felt good enough for it, I didn't come from a target school, and I don't have the perfect resume per se, but I decided to take a shot and see what happens!

Hi, happy to help! feel free to DM me. In general, you'll want to cover your why consulting, why the firm, why you as a narrative. If you're not already in the Middle East, you'll also want to speak about your location choice. Good luck!
