Seeking for advises

Hi there, 

If I were you I'd try to connect with a couple of them to see with whom I click. 

Aside from this, do some proper due diligence in terms of their profiles, background, reviews, transparency on success rates and so on. 

The most important thing at the end of the day is to trust them and be aligned with their methodology.

Best,

Cristian

Hi there,

Please find a coach before buying the package!

It's disappointing for some candidates when they reach out to me saying they've bought “the package” but it's for new coaches only. (as in preplounge's coaching package does not let you book with top-tier coaches)

Find the coach you want and then book their package.

Hi there,

Here's my recommendation:

• Read up on MBB first (McKinsey, Bain, BCG) in terms of what they do and what roles they offer, which is laid out in great detail on their company websites
• Create the best possible version of your CV (get some coaching support to make it stand out) and start networking - your goal should be a referral down the line
• Familiarize yourself with the general recruitment process, for which you'll find loads of resources available on PL (for example here) or elsewhere with a quick google search
• Start peer practicing interviews, both fit and cases, and contact a coach for support - the ROI is undeniable here and you will get the most bang for the buck if you already have some experience under your belt
• Finalize the application process, with or without a referral, by the time you're about 80% interview ready - things can move very quickly when the invitation comes and you don't want to start from 0 at that point
• If you get invited, intensify your preparation with very targeted coaching and ideally someone who used to work for the firm that invited you (particularly important for McKinsey, which is quite different from other firms)

Hope this helps a bit. Best of luck!
