Should I include Bridge to BCG experience in resume?

Definitely put it in!

When I would interview someone from a non-traditional background, I want to see how much they really understand consulting and why they want to do it. B to BCG provides you with a wealth of experience that you can draw upon.

I would think that it's less about the fact that you were accepted to the competitive program successfully.

Hope this helps,

Allen

Dear A,

Definitely you can put it in! It's a good and relevant experience.

Of course, I want to emphasize than nowadays with COVID situation and economy crisis the new places in consulting have been significantly reduced, so I would strongly recommend you to apply with referrals, that would be additional point to your nice CV and cover letter.

If you need any help or advice, feel free to reach out.

Best,
André

Hi Anonymous,

Nothing against adding it. It won't be a big difference in most cases, but whenever a decision is borderline this might give you the one extra point required.

And no downside to do it, so please go ahead!

Hope that helps - if so, please be so kind and give it a thumbs-up with the green upvote button below!

You should absolutely include it!

As a generally rule, always include big-name experiences as that provides a good signalling to the company - don't worry about "jealousy"...often it can work to your advantage :)

Hi there,

That’s definitely not a red flag, it’s even vice versa.

As you have experience in the big consulting firm and have an understanding in consulting, it’s only a plus for your CV.

Do you need any further help?

All the best,

GB

Hi there,

Just include it in!

It is a good way to differentiate yourself and also makes your resume more "consulting like".

Best,

Emily
