Work Experience

Hello! My name is Karim. I’m a BCG Project Leader, born and raised in Lebanon

I started my consulting career in Dubai in 2017 with Deloitte before moving to France during COVID to pursue my MBA. During that period, I worked quite rigorously, secured 6/6 offers to the firms I applied for, including the MBBs. After graduating, I returned to Dubai and continued my consulting journey with BCG Middle East

Over the years—especially after my MBA—I developed a real passion for helping people break into the MBB world. Many of the people I’ve supported didn’t necessarily fit the traditional “target profile”: maybe their GPA wasn’t perfect, or they didn’t come from the schools that MBB firms typically prioritize. In other cases, their profile was already strong, but they simply didn’t have the confidence to believe they could break into the very top firms—and just needed someone to push them, guide them, and help refine their craft

If that sounds like you, I want you to know that breaking in is always possible, it just requires a careful planning, and calculated steps

What started as something I did informally for friends and colleagues has now grown into something I’d love to offer more broadly. If you’re interested in exploring consulting or trying to break into the MBB, feel free to book a 15-minute introductory call. I’d genuinely enjoy getting to know you and hearing about your goals

The consulting journey can be long and sometimes overwhelming. My goal is to make that path a little smoother by sharing what I’ve learned along the way

If we do end up working together, know that I’ll be there to support you throughout the process. You’ll have direct access to me (including my personal WhatsApp) whenever questions come up

Looking forward to connecting!

Karim

My approach begins with a diagnostic session to establish a clear baseline of where you currently stand versus typical consulting recruitment standards. We will run an initial case interview (and fit interview, if you'd like!), followed by detailed, structured feedback. Based on this assessment, we will define concrete next steps and a targeted improvement plan to strengthen your performance ahead of your interviews

Interview Coaching
Karim was an outstanding coach, and I had a genuinely great experience working with him. What stood out immediately was how passionate he is about coaching and how invested he was in helping me improve. Sessions with him were not only highly insightful, but also very engaging and enjoyable. He gave extremely structured, clear, and actionable feedback on my case, which made it easy to understand both what I was doing well and what I needed to improve. More importantly, his feedback did not just highlight mistakes, it gave me a much clearer way of thinking about how to approach cases better going forward. Karim was also incredibly warm, fun, and easy to interact with, which created a very comfortable learning environment. He listened carefully to all of my questions and made sure every doubt was addressed thoughtfully and clearly. That combination of structure, energy, and genuine support made the session especially valuable. I would strongly recommend Karim to anyone looking for a coach who is insightful, supportive, and deeply committed to helping candidates improve.
