Susan is incredible!

Susan is a fantastic consultant and an incredible person. Right from the start, Susan took the time to learn as much as possible about my professional and personal life, helping me highlight aspects of my life that I didn’t even realize distinguished me from other applicants. She helped me piece together an application that I was extremely proud of for four programs, all of which I received interview invites for (and three of which were M7s). I am now extremely fortunate to say that I am heading to Kellogg this fall.

Susan will push you, but once interview invites come out, and later final decisions, you won’t be saying, “Darn, I wish Susan took it easy on me”, you’ll be saying, “Thank God Susan didn’t take it easy on me.” Trust me, when things get close to the deadline and you’re feeling the pressure, you don’t want someone who is going to let you settle. Susan will make sure you put your best application together because that’s just how she operates. She has immense passion for her work and truly cares about her clients. I think Susan was happier for me when I got engaged and then later married than some of my friends.

Susan’s help in preparing me for interviews was also exceptional. I tend to drone on and on when I provide anecdotes for behavioral questions, and Susan helped me nail down my stories to highlight actions that demonstrated my key skillset to supplement my written application. I remember panicking before I had my HBS interview, but she went above and beyond to make sure that I was ready and felt confident going into each interview. After the process was all said and done I told Susan, “I would’ve been screwed without you.” I would not be in the position I’m in now without her support. I cannot recommend Susan enough!
