Cover letter: You (why do you want to do this job?)3
Why consulting? Multiple sectors (sales,
marketing, production,strategy, etc)
Multiple domains (industry,services, finance) Multiple companies International High level issues High impact
Change implementation Interactions with important
clients Steep learning curve Intellectually challenging
Nice colleagues Etc Don't mention the money
I am attracted to consultingsince it would allow me to workon diversified strategic corporateissues across multiple
companies and many industries.It would give me the opportunityto study deeply each side ofthese problems and have a trueimpact on their resolution.
I would thus evolve amongsmart consultants teams,hopefully quickly assumeresponsibilities and be in contactwith top management clients. Iam also very concerned by the
steep learning curve of the job.

I would like to express my deep interest inMcKinsey and inquire about your juniorposition at the Paris office at the end of myultimate year of graduate studies in Ecole
Polytechnique and HEC (June 2013). I amspecifically attracted to McKinsey by itsoutstanding worldwide reputation,leadership and top clients portfolio.
I am also very enticed by your
entrepreneurial spirit (as I heard of thebuilding your own McKinsey state ofmind). I have talked with employees of thefirm Mrs. XXXX, Mr. XXXX, Mr. XXXX andXXXX especially, as they are alumni of myschool. Their description of your firm
culture, its coaching environment, veryteamwork-oriented, gathering peopleconstantly looking for improvement and itstruly international scope raised myenthusiasm.

Cover letter: Me (why are you such a good fit for the firm?)3
My training at Ecole Polytechnique with aconcentration on finance and economicshas provided me with a strong analyticaland quantitative background. The Strategic
Management master I attended in HEC thisyear confirmed my taste for consultingthrough strategy courses and weeklyworkshops with consultants.
As I wanted to get a strong financial
training before applying to consulting, Imade an internship at the Goldman Sachs(Paris, 2012) in the M&A department. As Itook part especially into a buy-sideadvising and bonds emission I becamefamiliar with valuation methods and
financial modeling. This experience taughtme some of the basics of consultingetc
Basically bragging 101
Consulting firms are lookingfor:
High academic
achievements Strong analytical &
quantitative profiles
International experiences Leadership
Could need somecustomization:
Depends on some firmsrequirements (especiallysmall and specialized
firms)

But they still have maximum quotas

Applying for a full-time or an internship?
Your previous experience: significant
consulting experience is enough
Academic, professional and extraprofessional leverageableachievements
Are you risk adverse?
Are you sure you want todo consulting?
Are you in such a hurry?
Exactly the same job but higher
wage for a full-time
Internship is not always consideredas firm experience regardingpromotions
Slightly higher expectations fromthe firm for a full time
Getting a full time is tougher thangetting an internship
When can you apply for a full-time?Pro & cons

Applications: a few insights4
French consulting firms hiring policy regarding non-native French speakers:
Interaction with clients: need to speak perfect FrenchBetter to apply in your home country
Students coming from non-target schools:HEC Ms Strategic Management label maybe not enough
to go through CV scanning automatically
Nonetheless not an obstacle if you get recommended Tips to get a quicker answer from HR and/or accelerate
process:Tell them you are well under way at others firms (or at
least pretend to be) On the other hand, do not hesitate to postpone if you
are not ready!

Goal
Consulting interviews: motivation and personality (1/2)2
The goal of the motivation step is to assess the match betweenyour profile, motivation and the firm values:
Why do you want to do consulting? Why in this firm in particular? Why would you be a good fit for the firm?
And to assess the following:
Are you ready to handle senior client interaction?
Are you a good team-worker? Is it pleasant to work with you? Are you a leader? Do you take initiatives? Do you have good communication skills? Can you show creativity?

Consulting interviews: motivation and personality (2/2)2
Goal
Interview step progress will depend of the interviewer:
Some will just ask "Tell me more about you and why you are there?" Some will be very specific and ask very accurate questions
Before D-day develop some story telling (cf. cover letter) about you tobe able to answer broad questions
Concise Organized (chronological?):
Professional
Academic
Extra-professional Not a narrative story What are the key takeaways of these experiences How are they relevant from a consulting point of view?
Miscellaneous questions:
3 qualities / 3 faults
Last movie seen / book read Where else are you applying to? Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Give an example where you over achieved under pressure /
convinced a hostile group of people to your / took the lead

4 Useful tools: Porters five forces (Cheng1's version)
1 www.caseinterview.com
Who is the customer?
Identify segments (segment size, growth rate, % of total market) Compare current year metrics to historical metrics (look for trends)
What does each customer segment want? identify keys needs
What price is each segment willing to pay? determine price points and price elasticity/sensitivity
Distribution channel preference for each segment
Customer concentration and power (does one customer control all the demand, the Wal-Mart effect)
Customer
Nature of product (benefits, why someone would buy it?)
Commodity good or easily differentiable goods (could company increase differentiation?)
Identify complimentary goods (can we piggy bank off growth in compliments or near compliments?)
Identify substitutes (are we vulnerable to indirect competitors namely substitutes?)
Determine products lifecycle (new vs. almost obsolete)
Packaging (optional) whats bundled, included (ex. Razor vs. razor blades, with w/o service contract
Product
Capabilities and expertise
Distribution channels used
Cost structure (mainly fixed vs. variable High fixed cost = barrier to entry compare to industry, often insightful)
Investment cost (optional: only if case involves an investment decision)
Intangibles (e.g., brands, brand loyalty)
Financial situation
Company
Competitor concentration and structure (monopoly, oligopoly, competitive, market share concentration)
Competitors behaviors (target customer segments, products, pricing strategy, distribution strategy, brand loyalty)
Best practices (are they doing things we are not?)
Barriers to entry
Supplier concentration
Industry regulatory environment
Life-cycle of industry
Competition

3 Progress and end of the case
Watch the clock:
Since you have to lead, you are the one in charge of timing Do not stay stuck on a very specific issue of the framework
Step back each time you reach a milestone:
Quickly sum up your findings before going on (partial conclusion) Try to find if you exhaustively treated the issue
Find the right balance between:
Taking a lot of initiatives (setting all the hypothesis, choosing the casestructure completely on your own)
Asking directions (which branch of the issue tree should I dig into first,confirmation of your findingsetc)
This balance depends of the case and the interviewer:
Listen very carefully to what he/she says Decipher the body language, play mind-reading

3 Progress and end of the case
End of the case: elevator pitch
The CEO just passed by
can you sum up your approach and findings in 30 seconds?
Don't be surprised:
When you feel this is the end of your case prepare yourself
Organize your notes all along the case accordingly (cf. partial conclusion)
Take a deep breath and structure your answer
"The answer is"
"I cannot answer because"
Summarize the case, not the last 25%...
Give an answer to the initial question
Grand final: last spike of energy, structure and brightness !
