Hi all, 

 

I barely come across appreciation post here on Preplounge and I would love and encourage people to do so. 

I received a dream offer last week from my dream MBB firm. I wanted to thank everyone here since this platform was crucial for my success. The ~100 mock interviews, the case library, the math drills, the coaching sessions and this Q&A section! All PL resources combined helped me to enter my interviews with high confidence and strong knowledge - something that I didnt do at my first MBB attempt which didnt end up so well.

Good luck to everyone and I will commit to help others on this platform in near future so I can pass the energy on!

Cheers!

Thank you for your kind words and congratulations on your offer!

I hate to be the boring one, but remember to keep learning in your first months on the job, to ensure you succeed: mastering the PPT shortcuts to reduce the time it takes you to make a slide to a minimum, getting comfortable with advanced Excel formulas, and practicing pyramid communication to make a good impression on managers and clients. 

But most of all, enjoy! Consulting is lots of fun, and I'm sure you will love it!
