Recent Master Graduate Seeking Advice

I have recently graduated with a joint degree master’s in environmental engineering in Europe. I am interested in pursuing a career in consulting, and I have been actively applying to MBB offices in Amsterdam. I am reaching out because I would like to receive advice if my resume is suitable for MBB (roasting my resume would be appreciated). And whether I should gain more experience before applying to such consulting firms. I am aware of the coaching services, but it is a bit too expensive for me.

A little background: academically, I have sustained an excellent record with distinction in both bachelor and masters. I also have received two scholarships from the U.S Department of State and the European Union, and I have a GRE score of 325. My previous professional experience includes working in international development, environmental research, and international cooperation.

P.S for privacy reasons, I did not post my cv and can send it as a message =) Thanks in advance
