310: Sales and Client Relationships

A very common strategy for a management consulting firm to displace an incumbent and serve a client is to show an problem / insight / opportunity that the client has not realized before. Unfortunately, this does not work that well in building client relationships and driving sales. In fact, a brilliant insight by itself may even lead to more work for the competition.

In this podcast, and related article, we discuss this issue and address how to fix it.

204: Case Interview Resumes

204: Case Interview Resumes

For the majority of clients, the most important area is resume preparation. A poor resume leads to a poor LinkedIn profile which results in no networking when consultants view the weaker online profile. Our most successful clients take the time to build effective resumes. All time allocated in this part of the training is at the sole discretion of Firmsconsulting since it is not subtracted from the 12 hours of coaching.

Give our extensive screening process; we have a detailed file on clients before the program begins. The planning call sets the agenda, timetable and objectives for the next few weeks or months if needed.

This series of detailed podcasts provides prospective applicants to our program all the information they need to put together an application package, do well in the screening interviews, and, should they be the offered a place in the Firmsconsulting program, succeed at their McKinsey, BCG et al interviews. Second Application Step: OAT (Online Analysis Test) If your resume screening is successful, you will be invited to an online test. This is purely a business judgement test. No preparation is required for the online test. The test is not assessing your ability to pass a McKinsey PST or a BCG screening exam. The online exam has no pass mark and is used as one data point to assess your candidacy. The online system assesses why you performed as you did and the final mark is not relevant nor does a high score guarantee you will be invited to the final screening interview.

197: Case Interview Using Data

This series of detailed podcasts provides prospective applicants to our program all the information they need to put together an application package, do well in the screening interviews, and, should they be the offered a place in the Firmsconsulting program, succeed at their McKinsey, BCG et al interviews. Since we personally work with each candidate, we collect extensive data on case preparation. A limited amount may be seen in The Consulting Offer Infographics. We therefore make decisions based on measurable statistics from the client in question and the general trends we observed with all other candidates. This provides an unusual advantage in being able to support our decisions on your training with numbers and correlations. For example, we know practicing to be faster in cases does not lead to greater speed since we have measured clients who have practiced this approach and clients who have followed our preferred approach.
