My name is Vini Aguiar, and I'm a former BCG Project Leader based in Boston. I have 8+ years of consulting experience (4 years at BCG + 4 years at Charles River Associates, a leading economic consulting firm). I joined BCG's Boston office as an experienced hire (Senior Associate) from a non-target school (Lehigh University) after completing a Master's degree in energy systems engineering while working part-time at CRA. 

Through my case prep process, interviewing experience for BCG, and 4+ years of coaching candidates in the BCG hiring pipeline and my network, I developed a simple yet robust approach to help you break into consulting. My mission is to enable you to perform at YOUR BEST and maximize your chances of securing multiple offers at top-tier consulting firms.  

It took me three tries to land a job at BCG. The third time was the charm, they say! I was rejected at the resume/CV screen out of undergrad (2012) and during the first round after three years at another consulting firm (2016). I wish I invested in coaching back then!

I landed the job on the third try (2020) after learning invaluable lessons about MBB application strategy, effective networking, resume/cover letter drafting, and interview preparation (case + fit). My mistakes and setbacks in the interview process helped me develop a streamlined approach to securing an offer. I would love to share that with you so you don't have to go through what I did. Are you ready to make that dream job come true?

I offer personalized guidance tailored to your individual needs. Whether you're struggling with case interviews, need help crafting your application materials, or want to improve your networking skills, I am here to help. My approach focuses on identifying your areas for improvement (e.g., telling your story, driving the case, structuring your approach, performing rigorous analysis, communicating effectively, etc.) and providing actionable strategies to help you excel in the interview process and secure one or more offers.

Our coaching sessions can cover several topics, including: 

  • Developing an application strategy and prioritizing firms
  • Networking and securing a referral (>60-70% of hires have one!)
  • Preparing a bullet-proof resume/CV and cover letter
  • Selling your experience and capabilities effectively
  • Excelling in case interviews consistently

My approach to coaching is customized and focused.

  • Customized to your needs: Whether you need targeted coaching for case interviews, help crafting compelling stories to sell interviewers on your experience and capabilities, or revisions to your resume/CV, I am here to help. We will build a coaching plan that enables you to achieve your goals as efficiently as possible.
  • Focused on your areas for development: During our first session, I will provide a detailed assessment of your performance and identify areas for development to maximize your odds of securing multiple offers. I will give you strategies to develop mastery in all aspects of the consulting interview preparation process--from networking to offers. You will leave our sessions with actionable next steps to take your performance to the next level.

Owner & President
Break Into Consulting, LLC
2024 - Jetzt

I launched Break Into Consulting to provide career coaching and interview preparation to high-potential aspiring consultants. My mission is to enable you to perform at your best and maximize your chances of securing multiple offers at top-tier consulting firms.  

Project Leader / Consultant / Senior Associate
BCG
2020 - 2024

During my tenure at BCG, I led and worked on cases in energy (power utilities, oil & gas), climate & sustainability (decarbonization of power, industrial goods, and beyond), private equity (buy- and sell-side due diligence, growth strategy, etc.), and the public sector (federal and state/local governments exploring energy transition, decarbonization, and federal funding applications). Over that time, I led 100+ interviews (fit and case), coached 20+ BCG Associates/Consultants, and was rated a top-performing consultant for multiple review cycles.  

Associate / Analyst / Analyst Intern
Charles River Associates (CRA)
2015 - 2019

As an Associate in the Energy practice at CRA, I worked on several engagements with leading power utilities, prestigious law firms, and financial sponsors. Whether we served clients on advisory or litigation support, our work required deep power market expertise, analytical rigor, and clear communication. This experience helped me develop a robust understanding of the flow of electrons and dollars, the evolving landscape of market structures and policy, and emerging technologies that will shape the future of energy in the U.S. and global markets.
