Consulting recruiting season is here - and the competition is fierce. While a great resume won’t guarantee you an offer, a bad one will knock you out before interviews even begin.

In this episode, the Management Consulted team breaks down what it takes to craft a consulting resume that stands out in a stack of thousands.

You’ll learn how to structure your resume for maximum impact, use metrics to tell your story, and avoid the most common mistakes that get candidates instantly rejected.

Whether you're applying this cycle or preparing ahead, this conversation will help you build a resume that gets noticed by top firms like McKinsey, Bain, and BCG.
