Don’t take my word for it – here’s what my clients say
“Florian is the absolute MVP. He was a fundamental lever in my path towards achieving multiple NYC MBB offers to join full time. […] Florian is extremely updated on the current consulting market trends, which always made me very confident in the fact that I was preparing with the most up-to-date materials […] The quality and depth of Florian’s contents is unmatched.”
“Florian is an absolute wizard at getting candidates ready for MBB and other top firms. He completely transformed how I approach cases and by the 2nd/3rd session, there was no case where I felt uncomfortable tackling. […] The cases Florian uses are very well-designed. Having been through MBB interviews now, I can see how close they are to the real thing. They are quite difficult and contain many traps and nuances, which is extremely beneficial as you will make mistakes and learn how to avoid them in the future.”
“Not only did I get the offer but I was told I was the ‘most definite offer’ of this recruitment cycle and that the partners immediately gave me a ‘yes’ before even discussing my performance. This is 100% down to Florian’s ability as a coach to get you to be offer-ready and there is absolutely no way I could have done it without him.”
