Welcome! 👋 I'm Cristian, the highest-rated MBB & McKinsey coach on this platform (check out the Coaches page for rankings). 

I've worked with over 200 candidates across all tiers and levels of seniority, maintaining a 100% success rate for candidates interviewing with at least 3 firms.

I value transparency and I'm the only coach in the industry to publish an annual review and verifiable success rates.

My feedback style is direct and aligned with McKinsey's philosophy of strength-based development. 

Whoever you are and wherever you come from, I believe that between you and your dream job is just a bunch of work. And I'm here to help you get through it in the most efficient, effective and elegant way possible.

###

Here's my story:

I joined McKinsey virtually by accident - I never planned to become a consultant. As I was graduating from Oxford, I was offered a great job that I decided at the last minute not to take and found myself jobless, with no clue which way to go. My girlfriend at the time was applying for management consulting and because it seemed like the cherry at the top of the corporate world, I decided to give it a shot. I practised hard, got a few offers and chose McKinsey. I was so happy! 

But it soon turned out that I knew nothing about consulting and hated the job. My performance reflected that. By the end of the first year, I was close to ‘Issues’, which in McKinsey terms is the last stop before being 'encouraged' to leave. I sought mentorship and spent much time thinking about my path. I gradually understood that I was not just a consultant but an agent of change within the Firm and the client’s organisation. With my mindset, my performance changed. 

I spent almost five years in McKinsey, with the last four consistently rated in the top quartile of performers in the region. I was fast-track promoted twice and worked across eight countries and nine industries. I had clients who genuinely and personally thanked me for the impact I delivered. I spent time coaching junior colleagues and acted as faculty at McKinsey’s new joiners training (coaching new consultants on how to do the job).

Summer of 2021, I left McKinsey. It was a great place, but I decided to move on. Like in a marriage where we just grew apart but stayed friends, we still share pleasant memories of each other. Following my instincts, I started a coaching practice, I'm writing a book, and I cause mayhem with my toddler. 

If you want to get to know each other or have additional questions, reach out for an introductory call! I’m happy to share some advice and talk about my experience. The recruitment journey to consulting can be challenging, but anybody can do it. Set a clear goal, plan, get the help you need, and stay consistent. I’ll be cheering you on.

You can also read about my profile on the McKinsey website here.

My approach centres around creating 3 areas of mastery for candidates:

1. First principles structuring. In a market where candidates are pushed to learn frameworks by heart, I teach candidates to develop the thinking process of consultants. That enables them to have a distinctive performance in interviews and an accelerated path during their first year in consulting.

2. Compelling storytelling. You cannot change your past, but you can get better at telling your story. Mastering this becomes a total enabler: getting more referrals by knowing how to present your experience, wowing interviewers with answers to personal fit questions and passing screening with distinctive CVs and Cover Letters.

3. Spike enhancement. Most candidates who are well-prepared fail because they are good at everything but great at nothing. MBBs, in particular, want marks of distinctiveness. I teach candidates how to grow inherent strengths into obvious spikes. Interviewers love it.  

To achieve these areas of mastery, my approach involves both coaching technique and mindset. The latter is often what enables my candidates to not only get multiple offers, but kick off their consulting careers with an advantage.
