339: Insights from 80% McKinsey & BCG Placement Rate

339: Insights from 80% McKinsey & BCG Placement Rate

In this detailed episode we discuss the steps we took to achieve our unprecedented 80% McKinsey & BCG placement rate.

This means of all the clients we have admitted, 80% have joined McKinsey or BCG. The remaining 20% have joined other consulting firms, banks, PE, VC, technology firms etc.

Firmsconsulting mainly admits candidates with very challenging backgrounds. We seek out clients who have potential but have not always had the opportunity to realize that potential. Therefore, our very high placement rate is not due to having naturally stronger clients. We use advanced and proprietary teaching techniques to bring out the best in clients who are not an obvious fit for McKinsey. This episode will discuss some of those techniques.

If you genuinely find our apps/podcasts useful, we would sincerely appreciate if you leave a review for our apps and/or iTunes channels. It can be done anonymously and this small gesture helps us more than you think.
