3 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions

Fully tailored and customized

100+ video course included

USD 1,578 USD 1,282

This package includes three, fully customizable 1 hour coaching sessions. Included for free with the coaching is a 100+ video course I have designed to provide you with offline training, learning, and deep-dive exercises - this course represents free coaching sessions and allows us to focus our live time on what can best help you.

*Ultimately everything I do is tailored to you as the individual. We work on what you need. This coaching package can be changed/modified to suit your needs - as an example, if you don't need resume/networking help, we can repurpose that time for frameworking / case leadership).

This package is designed to prime you for success in casing in the least amount of time possible. It is not about memorizing everything or being cased in x specific industry/case type. It is about me fundamentally changing your mindset to be prepared for anything that comes your way in the interview.

I fundamentally believe that we don’t go to school to learn x topic. Rather, we learn how to learn. Same with this package: I won’t teach you x case type, however I will teach you how to approach any unknown case type successfully.

But, don't just believe me when I say I provide a step change in your ability to change your thinking and get an offer.

Hear from my candidates!

Here is what my candidates say:

COACHING TRANSFORMATION

“Those 30 minutes just upped my game 10-fold”

“YOU got me from being a total mess to being good enough to get [a Bain & Mckinsey offer]…if anyone I refer to you hesitates because of your fees, let me know so I can set them straight!”

“Looking back, it's remarkable how far we were able to come in the span of just 4-5 weeks”

“Crazy how I went from abysmal to offer-ready after just a few sessions with you”

“I am confident that this wouldn't have happened without you”

Here is what my candidates say:

COACHING + NEGOTIATIONS

“With your negotiation support…+1 higher position, 50% salary increase, and an impressive signing bonus!”

Here is what my candidates say:

FRAMEWORKING & OFFLINE MATERIALS

“From the Imbellus material to your prompts and everything…they helped me massively and I got phenomenal feedback across all 5 interviews on my structuring. I owe all that to you.”

Here is what my candidates say:

CV / RESUME / COVER LETTER

“I honestly think that whatever price you put, the value you generate is even 10x more…my CV is 10x better than it used to be”

“HR fell in love with my CV…I got a personal response from the recruiter on how my CV stood out”

An example of what our coaching might look like (emphasis on example!):

Preparation plan

In this session, I work with you to identify your key weaknesses and areas for improvement. Not only will we then create a preparation plan for you, but I will also provide you with all the materials required to resolve these issues.

Mindset shift

I’ll hone in the major areas blocking your success. I’ll have identified these in our first session and we’ll work to fundamentally change your mindset.

Final touches

In this final session, we do some combination, based on your needs.

What does my coaching look like?

Ultimately, no two coaching sessions look the same. I have a toolkit build over years of teaching and training. I use different tools in different ways based on you: your situation, your strengths & weaknesses, and your learning style.

That said, here is an example of what our coaching might look like (emphasis on example!):

EXAMPLE Session 1 - Preparation plan

In this session, I work with you to identify your key weaknesses and areas for improvement. Not only will we then create a preparation plan for you, but I will also provide you with all the materials required to resolve these issues. *See below for the materials I provide*

If you are further along in your preparation, this session might include:

Casing resources (incl. case layout template, “world of frameworks” visualisation, industry deep-dive template w/ answers)
Initial case to gauge strengths/weaknesses, alongside concrete recommendations for focus areas
Instructional videos primarily focused around building up your structuring and frameworking abilities
Crash course on frameworking/struturing

If you have just started your consulting journey, this session might include:

Start-stop case (working through a case together so that you can get jump-started in your casing comfort level)
Deep-dive resume review (incl. killer template)
Deep-dive cover letter review (incl. example Cover Letters)
Networking/recruiting plan (incl. recruiting tracker)
Casing resources (incl. case layout template, “world of frameworks” visualisation, industry deep-dive template w/ answers, case tracker/matrix)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXAMPLE Session 2: Mindset shift

In this session I’ll hone in the major areas blocking your success. I’ll have identified these in our first session and we’ll work to fundamentally change your mindset. I have almost never seen a candidate that did not need a mindset shift in at least one area. This will be a very focused session, where I use tried-and-tested methods to fundamentally shift your mindset!

Some of the most common areas include:

Driving/understanding the case with purpose (hypothesis-driven only scratches the surface here)
Fundamentally understanding how companies work
Structured + clear thinking and communication
Keeping context while in the weeds
Brainstorming / flexibility with the unknown
Being a real person – showing your personality
Logical, project-based thinking of any problem, no matter how big or how small

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXAMPLE Session 3 – Final touches

In this final session, we do some combination of the following, based on your needs

Revisit mindset shift exercises
Tough case – I throw everything at you, and provide detailed feedback
Behavioural discussion (how to craft your stories and key principles)
Deep-dive on framework or industry of your choosing

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the end of these 3 sessions, you will have the fundamentals required to ace the case. You will have gotten rid of rejection-worthy bad habits and you will have the vision and focus required to ultimately achieve interview success.

I am here to train and teach you - I identify your weaknesses and use different tools in different ways to help you unlock your potential. No two candidates are alike and that's why I adjust my coaching to help you succeed no matter where you're coming from.

Ian has provided me with phenomenal coaching throughout the interview process. Over the last couple of months we have steadily worked on my weaknesses with both cases and behavioral/fit, and I've improved immensely with his coaching and support. Ian's approach to coaching is to be frank but encouraging, which I found effective in inspiring me to improve. He is results-oriented and invested in my success. I am certain that I wouldn't have gotten this far without him. Happy to say that with his guidance, I've received both Big 4 and MBB offers. Don't hesitate — working with Ian is SO worth it!

This was my 3rd time applying to MBB. In my last two attempts, I cleared the first rounds but always got dinged on the decision round. So I knew I can do the cases at a reasonable level but I am missing something critical in "how" I approach these problems. And, Ian helped me identify the problem and worked with me to address it.

Ian enabled a mindset shift that other commonly available resources are not effective at. He helped me in creating a structure from the first-order principle and in effectively communicating that structure.

I am happy to share that I got an offer from BCG (the only consultancy I applied again) and my case performance was evaluated as exceptional. Ian coaching is instrumental in turning around my performance.

Thanks, Ian. I wish everyone success in their journey and achieving their goal.

Ian is an amazing coach. First off, he is incredibly personable and someone that becomes not only a coach, but a friend throughout this process. The key to this program, on top of his technical expertise, is the fundamental mindset shift that he guides you through, giving you the confidence to handle any interview situation. I went from having no idea what I was doing to securing my dream offer from an MBB firm within a month. Not only that, my performance during the interview was so good that the offer came back with unanimous approval from all of my interviewers. Never would I have imagined myself, prior to Ian, having such a performance. This is the best investment you can make.
