The MBB Offer Machine™ Arvostelua 145

It isn't a single session where the coaching begins and ends. It's a whole journey that includes a full curriculum, which proved very efficient. Moreover, an entire team looks after you, not just one person. I only have one regret: not finding out about MBB Offer Machine sooner than I did because I had to unlearn some bad habits from previous coaching using other sources.

I was researching several MBB recruitment training programs. I asked all the training programs, "what portion of people who pay for your service receive an offer from MBB." I saw that the MBB offer machine not only had the strongest placement--by far--out of all the other training programs I researched. On top of that, they were very transparent about the success rate of people who paid for their services, so I trusted them as well.

After being in the program for a few months, I knew I made the right choice. I applied in a tough market (consulting firms were laying off not hiring), and I still managed to earn a consulting offer. In fact, I was the only person in my entire school to get a T2, full-time consulting offer during my recruitment cycle. (I think one other person got an offer from another T2 firm, but I believe that was for an internship and not a full-time offer. If it was a full-time, then I guess I was 1 of 2 people from my school of 40k students to get a full-time T2 consulting offer, which is still phenomenal).

The program clearly does a great job of teaching you. It's taught by people who worked at MBB for many years. So, they know how to solve cases. After all, that's what they spent years at MBB doing. The individuals who teach the course also have a lot of experience with interviewing candidates while at MBB, so they are helpful for behaviorals as well.

My experience with the MBB Offer Machine was truly positive. It is a very well structured program with a different, much more realistic and efficient approach to casing that taught me not only how to think and approach problems but also to communicate my thinking in an effective and rigorous manner.

I can't stress enough the value of the coaches. All of the mentors were experienced ex-consultants that have interviewed many candidates in the past. Their feedback and advice were instrumental in the improvement of my performance and eventual success.

I would highly recommend this program to anyone that is aiming to join a MBB firm.

An amazing coaching program if you plan to start your career in MBB! This program absolutely delivers what it promises and transforms your thinking!
I can definitely recommend it!!
Thanks to the program I felt super well prepared for my consulting interviews and secured my offer at my preferred company BCG - which I will join full time soon!

I joined the MBB offer machine program after a few months of case practicing and realizing no matter how many cases I did, I was missing some foundational skills. I wanted a structured and repeatable approach that would work for any type of case instead of the 10’s of frameworks available online.

After a few weeks in the program and grasping the rigorous approach taught, I could already see the difference in how I was approaching cases. The precise and detailed feedback from the coaches was unmatched and I had actionable steps to improve. This was then well complemented with the quality of practice and discussion I had with other mentees. With the skills learnt, I was able to better plan my interviews to ensure I had mastered all the skills and had a repeatable approach for success.

An additional success factor was the focus on the FIT part of the interview to ensure that mentees were all-rounded. Equipped with the necessary tools, I had the confidence to walk into the interviews knowing that no matter what case was presented to me I had the skills to structure and walk through the case to come to an answer. I was successful in securing 2 offers and will be joining an MBB.

Registering for this program was a great decision and worthwhile investment.

Thanks to Sidi and Jörn, I was able to understand what it means to be well prepared for MBB interviews. I got an offer from McKinsey. To be honest, I would definitely recommend their coaching programme as you not only get a lot of relevant video material and personal coaching on how to approach the interviews, but you also get into a circle of like-minded people. It's really helpful to push each other through this time! Thank you both so much, I couldn't be happier! :-) And for everyone else, if you want to crack the interviews, choose their programme.

I received offers from Bain and BCG!!!

My advice to future applicants:

1. Practice early! You should be prepared before you schedule your interview so that you aren't crammed for time

2. Focus on conveying your framework well. The framework will set the tone for you interview and starting off on the right foot is incredibly beneficial.

3. Giving cases is just as important as practicing them. Seeing a case from the interviewer's perspective allows you to see what works and what doesn't.

Overall, I couldn't recommend this experience more!

Sidi and Jorn were professional and supportive throughout the process! They gave valuable insider advice to the industry, helping to navigate accepting / extending offers.

The MBB Program was the perfect preparation to reach my goal of getting a job at Bain. The experiences of Jörn and Sidi helped me a lot during the whole application process. I can 100% recommend the program to everyone aiming to get a job in Tier 1 consulting.

There is no magic pill for getting prepared for MBB interviews, but there is a short path and those guys will coach you and show you the road with a clear step by step approach. You just need to put the work and get the reward!

The program has significantly accelerated my interview preparation process. It equipped me with powerful tools to solve case problems, communicate precisely and craft my personal experience stories in an impressive way.

The peer practicing offered in the program is huge and helped me to build my "real-time" skills to stand out in my interviews. I have built good relationships with great mentees and still in contact with them!

I highly recommend this program if you are serious about breaking into MBBs.

I believe the most valuable thing I learned was how to apply my thinking to any given case, despite me having no idea about the industry.

Following Jörn and Sidi’s coaching, I received an offer to join BCG in the Paris office as an experienced hire.

This program provides mentees with the recipe for successfully and efficiently preparing for interviews at top strategy consulting firms (both for fit and case preparation). It cuts through the noise of online preparation resources that are often incomplete, of suboptimal quality, and filled with many misconceptions (especially regarding interviewer’s expectations).

Here are the key learnings I acquired from the coaching program:

1) Structuring ANY type of case question by applying a rigorous top down logic (which helps in setting yourself apart from competition BIG TIME)

2) Demonstrating case leadership while bringing the interviewer along and showing an ability to reflect live on subtle guidance received

3) Building a well-rounded story for the FIT part of the interview (which helps in displaying the traits sought after by MBB firms)

While I was a bit skeptical before embarking into the journey with the MBB Offer Machine, I can now confidently say that it was definitely worth the investment. Jörn and Sidi do not only provide you with top notch content but also constant support (through a dedicated Whatsapp group), expert guidance (through 1:1 mentor coaching sessions), as well as selected peers for casing. All in all, I would definitely recommend the program if you want to ace your interview preparation.

Thanks to this training, I have received full time entry level consultant offers from Oliver Wyman and Kearney Paris offices.

Instead of having you learn general frameworks & industry overviews by heart, the MBB Offer Machine provides you with a clear methodology on how to solve ANY strategic problem.

Case structuring used to be my weakest point when I started casing. I felt that I lacked industry knowledge to be able to write comprehensive structures. But I got it all wrong. The program will show you that no industry knowledge is necessary to propose a convincing structure. In fact, the key to cracking a case is to start from the case question. Throughout my interviews I was systematically complimented on my problem solving skills (no need to say that 100% of them were acquired through this training).

MBB Offer Machine doesn’t only help you lend an offer at a top strategy consultancy, it also teaches you to think in a rigorous top down way which will be useful long after your interviews are over and throughout all your career.

On top of that, mentoring sessions with experienced interviewers like Sidi and Jorn, as well as their continuous guidance and support truly make a difference.

I’m extremely grateful for this program and it was totally worth the investment.

The MBB program has been the best choice I could make to reach the goal of joining a top tier consulting firm (McKinsey in my case).

The program is structured in a way that helps you strengthen your logical thinking and your ability in breaking down problems.
But, above all, what makes this MBB program unique is:
- the constant support from Sidi, Jörn and the other members of the team, who are always ready to give honest and direct feedback;
- the opportunity to practice with very talented candidates throughout the course, which helps you in becoming more and more confident in solving cases.
It was a very intense and fruitful journey!

I for a McKinsey Offer from the Office Múnich and felt super well prepared with this program.

Joining the MBB program has been a fundamental step for me in unlocking the opportunity to join McKinsey.

It is not only the course content that stands out. The tailored feedback is honest, direct and key to develop into an outstanding candidate.

Adopting a new skillset is a challenging journey. However, with Sidi, Jorn and the team, you will always feel supported as the coaches truly care about the success of their candidates. Hence, crossing that finish line feels like a joint accomplishment. This makes the moment when you receive an offer even more rewarding.

The program taught not just how to approach a case interview; it introduced a fundamental structure and approach to thinking and breaking down problems. It was very constructive, and I would recommend it even if one were not intending to enter strategy consulting or MBB.

The course provides you with the perfect tools to tackle the cases in a structured way. Aside of the amazing course, the constant feedback that you receive from your coaches allows you to identify your personal pain points and improve on these. These two channels in parallel make it a fantastic program!

Really good program to follow - I felt like it gave me good guidance when I hit a wall with my solo preparation. My two highlights were the sessions with Sidi and the different outlook on case structuring.

Coming from a medical background and zero business knowledge, I was quite stressed about my interviews. I joined the MBB Offer Machine because it offered all that I was looking for:

1. A structured program with a clear timeline. They have put together a lot of great material and organized it into different modules. Knowing at what point of the program I was and witnessing my constant development was simply perfect. It always kept me on track.

2. Experienced mentors. They are simply a bunch of great people, who are not afraid of sharing their feedback, no matter how harsh it may be. After all, we all share the same goal: landing an offer from a top strategy consulting firm. Therefore, I couldn’t accept anything else than honest feedback.

3. A great selection of peers to practice with. I made friends with many of them! We all had each other back going through this journey.

On top of this, the MBB Offer Machine is growing fast, and the mentors are constantly developing new content. I have no doubt that the new mentees will have access to outstanding and unique material for their interview preparation.
