Hi I'm Jenny Ray, the managing director of management consultant, and I'm excited
to give you an intro into our editing services today. First, it's important for
you to understand that there are three pathways your application could take once
submitted to a consulting firm. Automated, HR review, or team review. Regardless of a
pathway that's chosen, you have about 10 seconds to make an impression on
whoever's reviewing the documents. And that 10 seconds is the difference
between getting an interview offer, and being required to wait 18 months or more
before your next application. In short, the stakes are high, and it is worth it
to invest in making sure you've got the best chances possible. There are four
parts to consulting applications, two mandatory, and two that are optional– or
not necessarily used in every consulting firms' applications. The two that are
mandatory our resumes and cover letters. Even if a firm doesn't require a cover
letter, we still highly recommend the use of one –one hundred percent of
the time. For the other two pieces, a transcript is often required, and we
can't help you with that. But the fourth piece, a leadership essay, which is not
necessarily mandatory in all applications, is a very important part of
being able to convey how you think and work in a team. We highly recommend
that you do have leadership essays with you. So in short, there are four pieces of
the application, the resume and cv, the cover letter, the transcript, and the
leadership essay. Where we don't help with the transcripts, we do help with the
other three pieces. Now you have choices on who you'll help get involved in this
process. A resume is very personal, so a natural place to start is with friends
and family, or career service professionals. It's helpful to have
somebody who is free and available to review your documents, it gives you a
sense of what somebody from the outside would see. However, it's not enough
because they don't necessarily have a specific understand
of what consultants would require. Now if you are fortunate enough to be someone
who has a contact inside a consulting firm. You may be lucky enough to have
them offer to review your documents. They should not, however, be the first ones to
review, they should be the last. First of all they're likely to give you at most a
five minute overview of a couple of things that you could do to make your
documents better, or more specifically tailored to the firm. And second if your
documents need surgery, which many of them that we see do. You're likely to
make a bad impression on them from the beginning. Which will be nearly
impossible to overcome. So there are three key reasons why you should partner with
management consulted to help of your consulting applications. First we offer
consulting specific expertise, we added over 1,000 documents per year, and we've
been doing that the last six years. Over the course of that time we've developed
expertise on different firms, different industries, different regions, and
different levels of seniority. We can help you no matter where you are in the
process, and no matter where your coming from. Second, we engage you in the process, we don't
just give you a boilerplate document back after one round of edits. Ee don't
just give you something back and suggest that you submit it without any insights
for inputs on your own. We solicit your partnership as we go through the process,
to make sure that we come up with a document that you're incredibly
satisfied with. And finally our editing team is the best of the best. Our team
offers experience from our own insight at MBB. We've been offering consulting
editing services since 2008, and over that time our business has grown rapidly.
Mostly from referrals from very very happy clients. We're excited to offer our
expertise to you. We'd love to work with you, so go to our plans and pricing page,
scroll down to the premium editing services. Once there you'll have four
options – either the basic resume and cover letter editing, or two value-added
packages, which also include our book bundle and interview preparation. Add your
selection to the cart and you'll be on your way.
You start with some input from us on how you can make your documents better
before we even get a look at them. Then you can send us your documents, either in
their current state, or after you've made some improvements. And we will go through
the first round of edits. We do not leave one word, or one piece of punctuation untouched.
After three to four business days, we return the document to you, where we
solicit your input for the second round of edits. After receiving the packet for
the second piece of information, then we incorporate all of your insights, and we
deliver you a final document that's ready to be submitted to consulting firms.
The entire process takes 10 to 14 days to complete, however, if you have an
expedited concern we have a 48 hour emergency service option. You should add
that to your shopping cart when you're checking out, and we'll get to your
documents right away. We look forward to helping you construct the best possible applications for consulting.
