What does it take for an international, non-target student to land a full-time offer at MBB? Giovanni Coeli joins us to share the exact playbook he used to overcome visa hurdles, stand out as a non-target candidate, and earn his offer at BCG Miami.
In this episode, Giovanni breaks down:
- His intentional networking system
- How he identified the right offices (and why Miami won)
- The diplomatic approach he used to build internal support
- His case prep strategy and go-to drills
- The biggest myths international and non-target candidates should ignore
