Hey everyone, and welcome to the new aspiring consultants who joined the Consulting Mastery newsletter!
If you haven’t already and want to learn more about landing a consulting job, the consultant lifestyle, and sharpen your business skills, you can join the Consulting Mastery below! 👇
If you’re new here and want to learn more about who I am, you can find my first post here.
I’ve been busy, working on a new McKinsey study!
I know I haven’t posted in a while, but I’m still here!
I just started a new project at McKinsey called a “Transformation” project. For those of you who want to learn more about this sort of work, here’s a good article published by the firm on this (What is Business Transformation?).
The project is pretty fun, because it’s just like interview case preparations, but in real life!
Let me explain.
You see how some of your cases are profitability cases, or M&A cases? Well, in real life, you get a mix of multiple cases!
In my case, it’s a revenue growth, profitability, and operations cases combined all in one.
We are trying to make revenues grow by $300M, and EBITDA by $100M, by 2025.
HOW EXACTLY DO YOU ACHIEVE THIS?
This is when McKinsey comes in and saves the day (hopefully).
Here’s a simple analogy to better understand the role of consultants: we are like personal fitness coaches, but for business.
We assist companies and executives drive real change across their organization - which is VERY hard and time consuming.
It requires a lot of work, but is necessary to direct a billion dollar+ organization towards its goals.
Happy to chat more about this project in the comments below or in private emails btw!
A New Consulting Mastery Website!
Not only do I have to help grow revenues by $200M at a corporation by day, but I help students and professionals get a career in the consulting world by night!
I’ve been working on this new website and trying to create a valuable product for people who want to learn about consulting and ultimately land an offer at a top firm.
I know exactly how you may feel because I’ve been there.
And I was able to overcome the challenges of preparing for the biggest career opportunity of my life, and landed an offer at McKinsey & CO.
YOU CAN DO IT TOO.
That’s why I’m doing my best to help out by providing value to others!
The Consulting Mastery Toolbox was created to help you land a consulting offer in 10 weeks or less.
It’s the full roadmap I used to get a job at McKinsey & Co., and I’m making it available to everyone.
It’s ideal for complete beginners and professionals that want to get into consulting.
To celebrate this new website, the next 10 of you who see this and purchase the Consulting Mastery Toolbox will also get a resume review from me personally.
I’m announcing this only to my newsletter subscribers, because I don’t have time to review more than 10 resumes!
Talk soon!
Will see you soon with another interesting letter on the world of consulting!
In the mean time, feel free to reach out with any questions you may have in the comments, or by email.
Share this with you friends you want to get into consulting!
