Hey, I'm Alessa from Germany!

After receiving full-time offers from McKinsey & Company, BCG, and Roland Berger, I chose to start my career at McKinsey. I spent 2.5 years there, starting as a Fellow Intern and moving through the roles of Fellow, Fellow Associate, and Senior Fellow Associate. Before transitioning into project management, I decided to leave the firm to explore new paths.

During my time at McKinsey, I also gained first-hand experience in recruiting, which gave me valuable insight into what top firms really look for. I'm excited to share all of that with you in a coaching session and support you on your journey!

In coaching, I focus on helping you think clearly under pressure, build strong and authentic fit stories (e.g. McKinsey PEI) and develop real strengths rather than trying to be average at everything. I work with only a small number of candidates at a time so I can be responsive, flexible and go deep, and after each session you’ll get very concrete feedback and clear next steps. I’m happy to help whether you’re close to interviews or just starting to prepare, so feel free to reach out if you want to chat.

WHAT IS NEXT?
• Send me a short message with the firm you are applying to and your interview timeline
• We quickly check together whether we are a good fit (timewise, goals)
• Based on that, we decide what makes most sense right now! (I suppport you in every step!)

E.g.: 
• CV or cover letter review
• One focused coaching session 
• Or a small bundle of 5 sessions if you want deeper prep

 

In my coaching, I fully focus on YOUR questions and needs. Each session is individually tailored to your skills and goals – I don’t follow a one-size-fits-all approach. The aim is always that you leave our session feeling confident and ready for your interviews.

Feel free to message me beforehand with your prep priorities so we can get the most out of our time together. One note: I don’t work with everyone. It’s important to me that our values and ambitions align, and that we’re a good fit to really make progress together. Looking forward to getting to know you!
