About Franco

Work Experience

My name is Franco Borgonovo, and I spent over 10 years at Boston Consulting Group, working across Europe, Asia, and North America

During my time at BCG, I served as a global lead recruiter, interviewing hundreds of candidates and touring major BCG offices worldwide to run interviews for all levels: undergraduates, MBAs, PhDs, and senior lateral hires

Today I serve as an official coach for the BCG "Consulting Foundation Training", a week-long global onboarding program for new hires, which keeps me fully aligned with BCG’s most up-to-date evaluation criteria.

Outside of my official BCG interviewing responsibilities, I have personally coached hundreds of MBB candidates, with most of them securing offers from McKinsey, BCG, or Bain. 

My coaching approach is structured, fast, and highly practical, focused on what top firms actually test: problem-solving clarity, communication under pressure, and business judgment. 

Whether you’re just getting started or preparing for final rounds, I can help you sharpen your casing skills, strengthen your fit stories, and walk into the interview with confidence. 

Feel free to reach out if you want more information or proof of my professional background. I’m here to help you get your MBB offer.

My coaching approach is structured, direct, and performance-driven. Every session is tailored to your level and timeline, with a clear roadmap toward interview readiness. We focus on what top firms actually evaluate: problem-solving clarity, executive communication, and business judgment under pressure. You receive candid feedback, precise correction, and concrete next steps after every session. The objective is not more practice, but measurable improvement and consistent, offer-level performance.

Interview Coaching
I strongly recommend Franco as a superb advisor for MBB interview preparation: 1. Franco provided precious tips on how to approach the personal/behavioral piece of the interview, focusing on how to "click" with the interviewer and putting the interview on the right track from the very first minutes 2. Franco helped me to really understand how to structure the case without memorizing tons of different frameworks 3. He provided great insights on how close the interview and leave a great impression on the interviewer 4. He was super flexible with his schedule In sum, the session was very insightful and very well run
