L.E.K. Coaching

Question

Any coaches specialize in helping coachees with LEK? Seems like most focus on MBB.

Answer 1

I interviewed with LEK a couple years ago: no need to do anything differently than what you did for your MBB prep, apart from maybe thinking a bit more about healthcare and Pharma/life sciences industry dynamics, cost structures etc.

Answer 2

Hi there,

Q: Any coaches specialize in helping coachees with LEK? Seems like most focus on MBB.

Most coaches with a good number of meetings should have experience with LEK as well. You can check their profile description or send a message to the coaches you selected to check it.

If you need help, please feel free to reach out, I helped several candidates for LEK and know a good number of real case questions they asked.

Best,

Francesco

Answer 3

Hi,

Any coach that can coach you for MBB would be able to coach you for LEK.

The key skills and abilities top consulting firms are looking for are the same.

All the best!

Answer 4

Hi there,

the general set of preparation requirements and techniques is the same for most consulting firms, including L.E.K.. They do a lot of due diligence work and are very present in healthcare and pharma. So those aspects might be good to keep in mind but it will not fundamentally change how you approach cases.

Most coaches with an MBB or Tier 2 track record will be able to help you here. Check out some coach profiles and reach out to the ones you feel might be a fit.

Answer 5

Hi there!

I've coached candidates for LEK, so happy to help. The differences aren't significant to other firms, but I can share from the experience my candidates have had with them.

Best,
Cristian

Answer 6

Yes had a few candidates. Happy to support you. Warm regards, Freddy

Answer 7

Yes! I've actually supported dozens of candidates with LEK.

I also have a few of the real interview questions LEK asked recently (from my candidates) :)

Feel free to message!
