I’m a Project Leader at BCG Zurich with 6 years of international consulting experience, specializing in aviation, travel, and operational excellence. I’ve advised top global airlines and hospitality groups on strategic and digital transformation projects across Europe and North America. Having actively conducted hiring interviews for BCG in both Switzerland and the US, I offer valuable insider perspectives on what leading consulting firms look for in top candidates.

Interview Coaching
Colin is a very experienced coach with a strong background as an interviewer in the DACH region and the US, as well as hands-on experience as a Project Leader. He helped me approach cases, real-life situations and personal fit from a true consultant’s perspective. His feedback was clear, structured, and directly aligned with evaluation criteria, which made it easy to see where I needed to improve. His coaching played a key role in me receiving an MBB offer. I highly recommend him to anyone preparing for MBB interviews.

Interview Coaching
I worked with Colin across multiple stages of my consulting application and experienced his coaching in both case and fit preparation.
What differentiates him is his ability to quickly diagnose structural weaknesses in your thinking and translate them into a disciplined, customized preparation roadmap. His feedback is direct, precise, and grounded in real consulting standards - not generic case advice.
Our work together significantly strengthened my positioning and helped me secure an interview at a top tier firm.
Beyond technical preparation, Colin understands the recruiting dynamics in both the DACH region and the US and can coach fluently in English and German. He combines rigor with empathy - he challenges you while remaining genuinely invested in your progress.
I would highly recommend him to candidates who are serious about preparing at a top-tier level.

As a former Project Leader at BCG with 6 years of consulting experience in Zurich and Atlanta (left the company in Sep '25), I specialize in helping candidates excel in management consulting interviews. Having personally conducted hiring interviews for BCG in both Switzerland and the US, I understand exactly what top consulting firms seek in successful candidates. My industry expertise lies in aviation, travel, and operational excellence, where I have advised global airlines, hospitality groups, and cruise lines on strategic transformations. Through PrepLounge, I'm excited to share targeted insights, proven frameworks, and personalized coaching to help you confidently tackle case studies and fit interviews. My approach combines real-world project experience and insider perspectives on the recruiting process. I'm dedicated to helping ambitious individuals achieve their consulting career goals.
