Firmsconsulting maintains a 80% success rate at placing clients within McKinsey, BCG and Bain. This is the highest in the industry and the rate is higher if we include other firms. We achieve this rate because we only use former partners from McKinsey, BCG et al to develop our clients. This makes us unique. We never use analysts, associates, engagement managers or associate principals. We also carefully select and develop clients on their communication, image, technical and case interview skills. This podcast channel describes our lessons from training our clients.

340: Interview with Bill Matassoni
Every now and then, someone comes along and makes the subject of management both fun and insightful. That’s what Bill Matassoni has done in his memoir—a combination of compelling stories and contrarian substance—that covers his forty-year career selling what he calls “ephemeral things.” In addition to the memoir, Bill plays host to a series of videos that are entertaining, irreverent, and filled with his conviction that marketing is the primary driver of progress in both commercial and social markets. We will soon release Bill Matassoni's memoir and documentary series.

339: Insights from 80% McKinsey & BCG Placement Rate
In this detailed episode we discuss the steps we took to achieve our unprecedented 80% McKinsey & BCG placement rate. This means of all the clients we have admitted, 80% have joined McKinsey or BCG. The remaining 20% have joined other consulting firms, banks, PE, VC, technology firms etc. Firmsconsulting mainly admits candidates with very challenging backgrounds. We seek out clients who have potential but have not always had the opportunity to realize that potential. Therefore, our very high placement rate is not due to having naturally stronger clients. We use advanced and proprietary teaching techniques to bring out the best in clients who are not an obvious fit for McKinsey. This episode will discuss some of those techniques.

338: Management Consulting: Your Ego is Your Enemy
Since this is the time of year when FC members are going to be negotiating salaries, attending case interviews and anxiously making decisions, we thought it is a good idea to once again reflect on ethics and values. At times like these many sometimes feel that if they could just cut this corner now, everything will be OK... We want to provide some context for how to make decisions that will not only make you feel better in the long term, but will actually leave you better off financially. In this episode we use some interesting anecdotes from Firmsconsulting to articulate these points. If you genuinely find our podcasts useful, we would sincerely appreciate you leaving a genuine review on iTunes. The mission of Firmsconsulting is to make the world better by arming leaders around the world with the necessary skills to solve mankind's toughest problems.
