Oliver Wyman

Hello everyone, 

I have passed the CV screening by Bain and BCG but my CV has got rejected last time by OW. 

Should I change something in my CV or I might have got rejected last time due to high competition last year. 

OW has stated multiple times that they are not looking for specific academic majors or industry experience and look for diversity of experience and skills so I am not sure if I need to do any changes or give it a try. 

Need your guidance.

Hi there,

There is always room to improve one's CV.

That said, if you passed screening by Bain and BCG, you probably have a good one! I haven't heard of much hiring by OW at the moment.

If you like, you can send it through to me via direct message. I'll be happy to have a quick look (free) and quickly tell you if anything needs to be changed.

That said, in general, there are often experiences we can add/remove/reword to make our resume even better.

Post your CV (sanitised version) here for coaches to comment. Its very hard to give any advice without looking at it.

Hi there,

Difficult to answer without looking at your CV, but given you have been invited by Bain and BCG your CV is probably fine. Possible reasons explaining why you got rejected are:

  • Lack of need at OW
  • Lack of referral with OW
  • Relevant changes in your application with OW compared to BCG and Bain (eg you substantially changed your CV/Cover when you applied there)

You can find tips for the CV below:
