recruitment experience in 2008, when he noticed how many people
struggled through recruitment; existing resources were too focused
on case interviews and did not cover the overall recruitment
process.

recruitment process from start to finish and provides mock
interview services at Northwestern University. He has also taught
multiple primers on consulting recruitment at both University of
Chicago and Northwestern University in winter and fall 2011. He
