Ace your Consulting App: Resume & Cover Letter Secrets from a McKinsey Veteran

Your resume is the first thing employers see

You have just a few seconds of a recruiter's precious time to represent the amazing life you have lived. That's a lot of pressure.

And... you've probably seen about a million resume templates for consulting.

They're easy to copy.

But it's less easy to populate those templates the right way for consulting.

This module will take you behind the scenes

iX has enlisted the help of iX Alum Erik Roberts, a McKinsey Senior Associate who is now at Harvard Business School. Erik has reviewed many, many resumes in his time at McKinsey, and knows how to dissect a resume in seconds.

In this mini module, Erik will take you through a behind-the-scenes for how he critiques a fresh resume that lands on his desk.

How does this help you?

Instead of only giving you a template (which isn't that helpful), Erik is showing you the FRAMEWORK by which you can construct a resume that is perfect for your specific experience.

Hint: if you haven't already, be sure to check out iX's AI Advantage course, where you can learn how AI can assist you in refining your resume and cover letter.
