Who I am?
Dear reader,
My name is Sébastien Ritter. I am the founder of CareerInConsulting.com, a former Strategy Consultant, and a seasoned lecturer in some of the most eminent universities worldwide.
Also, I love creating best-in-class training and education that’s not just another rehashed “photocopy” of what’s already available for free on a hundred million pages.
Before continuing your reading, feel free to connect with me on Linkedin.
Over the past decade, I have coached more than 300 candidates with a success rate close to 85% (most of them went to MBB).
Here is what I learned:
Landing a job in consulting can be a daunting task.
It’s like building a perfect house of cards where each card represents an element of your application: a bullet point on your resume, a paragraph in your cover letter, a MECE issue tree you built to solve a case, an interpretation of data in your reasoning, your personality, your communication style, your stories, etc.
And if only one single card is not in the right place, the entire house of cards can collapse and move all the hard work you put in to be where you are today into the trash.
If this happens to you, not only would you see your dream job in a prestigious company go away, but also you may experience negative self-judgment and harmful social comparisons, which, unfortunately, very often lead to feelings of unworthiness.
I know it because I’ve been there too.
I understand what academic and professional competition means. I know how a strong desire for success and a fear of failure can tear you apart.
That’s why I’ve decided to create careerinconsulting.com.
To equip candidates like you with the right skill set to achieve their ambitious career goals and receive offers from the companies they choose.
And unlike most other coaches, career coaching is a professional calling and a full-time career, not a side hustle.
I have over a decade of expertise in coaching candidates around the globe. I love analyzing what the top 1% of candidates are doing and how it can be successfully duplicated.
That’s why I constantly update the preparation materials and environment my clients need for a flawless performance during their interviews.
Also, I firmly believe the classic coaching-priced-per-hour is flawed and does not work for career coaching.
What do you think of this: “Mr/Ms client, you are not ready for your interviews yet. You should purchase another coaching session.”.
It sounds terrible, isn’t it?
This is why my clients are coached and supported until they receive an offer and don’t purchase a fixed number of coaching hours.
Now, you can contact me if you want to sharpen your interview skills – and not just scratch the surface – and benefit from a proven process that turns applications into interviews and interviews into offers.
My Mission
Help lifelong learners own their careers and future
How is CareerInConsulting different?
A team of experts invested in your success
I partnered with six senior leaders from the consulting industry to offer my clients the best-in-class learning environment at each hiring process stage.
Now the CareerInConsulting team includes an ex-McKinsey Principal, a current BCG Project Leader, an ex-Bain Project Leader, an ex-McKinsey Senior Recruiter, and an ex-BCG Senior Recruiter.
This team of experts is fully committed to helping you overcome your most pressing challenges and achieve your career goals, how ambitious they can be.
And to be very clear: careerinconsulting.com is not and will never be a marketplace where you can buy coaching sessions with a consultant or another.
Instead, our clients have coaching sessions with ALL the team, not just with one consultant.
Personalized feedback
You know this: practice makes perfect.
But what this famous saying doesn’t tell you is that practice also makes it permanent.
In other words, if you don’t know what you are doing is wrong, you can develop bad habits.
Imagine this: the more you practice, the more your dream job moves away.
Personalized feedback will tell you when you take the wrong road and how to go back in the right direction quickly.
Also, personalized feedback will help you differentiate yourself and showcase the unique value you bring.
I believe personalized and actionable feedback is a key success factor in securing offers in a competitive industry like consulting.
A unique coaching model
I firmly believe the classic coaching-priced-per-hour is flawed and does not work for career coaching.
Imagine an expert telling their client: “you are not ready for your interviews yet. You should purchase another coaching session.”.
It does not sound right.
Most candidates do not know how many hours of coaching they need to be in the top 1% of candidates.
And they should not decide what should be covered during the coaching sessions.
This is why my clients are coached and supported until they receive an offer and don’t purchase a fixed number of coaching hours.
And this is why my clients receive a personalized and structured preparation plan to guide them until they get ready for their interviews.
