I got an offer from McKinsey!!

I recently had the opportunity to engage in a coaching package for McKinsey with Frederic, and I must say that it has been an invaluable experience. Frederic's deep understanding of the interview process and criteria was the most significant aspect of the coaching package.

When it came to the problem-solving portion of the interviews, Frederic provided clear guidance on what to expect and what the interviewers were specifically looking for. His ability to break down complex scenarios and demonstrate the desired approach was extremely helpful in preparing me for this critical component.

In addition, Frederic and I worked collaboratively on the Personal Experience Interview (PEI) portion, where we crafted stories that aligned with all five dimensions. Frederic's expertise in this area was evident, as one of my stories resonated so well with an Associate Partner during the first round that no clarifying questions were needed. This positive feedback boosted my confidence and reassured me that I was on the right track.

One of the standout qualities of Frederic is his approachability and responsiveness. Whenever I had questions or needed assistance, he promptly provided guidance and support via WhatsApp. His availability and willingness to help were truly commendable and contributed to a seamless coaching experience.

I wholeheartedly recommend Frederic's coaching package for anyone aspiring to succeed in the rigorous interview process at McKinsey. His expertise, approachability, and commitment to ensuring his clients' success make him an exceptional coach. I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance Frederic has provided.
