Stacy Blackman Consulting

I was admitted to Darden with a full scholarship and a fellowship. I also got 1/2 scholarship offer form Fuqua.

I worked with Stephanie Cohn, and one of the things I enjoyed most was her non-judgmental, encouraging approach. It was less critical, and highly constructive. During the strategy session, she pointed out potential weaknesses in my application and ways to counteract them based on my strengths. For example, i have only been at one company, and for almost 7 years. Also, it was in a sales organization. She was able to help me craft my resume to show progression, and highlight analytical projects. Additionally helping me line up recommenders to highlight my broad project experience and progression.

Additionally, Stephanie was invaluable in really focusing and clarifying my career goals and making a compelling case for consulting. Her pointers on both how to technically research recruiting companies and to think through my goalsd also paid dividend in interview.

Stephanie was great about finding the unique portions of who I am that make my application fuller and more interesting. She helped me frame my personal background in a way that represents the kind of classmate and future professional i will be.
