Sendi asked on Dec 20, 2020

Hello all,

I have recently joined this wonderful community for the plentiful of valuable advice available to starting a career in consulting. I am an aerospace engineer with 3 years experience (though the last year has had some disruptions due to covid).

I have always wanted to go into consulting and management consulting is what I believe I could be a good fit with. I am targetting the MBB firms but BCG in particular.

Would it be possible to have someone to look at my Resume (and or cover letter) please? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Senduran

Hello!

I would recommend you otherwise: why don´t you sanitize (name, etc.) and post it here? You will get a lot of responses, building on one another, and it would be more insightful.

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Clara
