Why buying „Coaching Sessions“ cannot lead to a robust preparation
Written by Dr. Sidi S. Koné
Are you tired of buying "coaching sessions" that leave you feeling unfulfilled and unprepared? Discover why buying individual sessions can never lead to a robust interview preparation.
Every year, we talk to thousands of individuals who are seeking expert support in their interview preparation. During these conversations, we repeatedly come across misconceptions about how skill-building truly works. One of the most persistent topics is the notion of "coaching sessions," which has been popularized by mainstream case preparation platforms. But, have you ever stopped to ask, "Is buying individual coaching sessions really effective in driving my preparation forward?"
The answer is a resounding no! Proper mentorship cannot be achieved through a set of 60 or 90-minute individual meetings. Merely doing a sequence of 2, 5, or even 10 sessions is not enough to build the necessary skillset to stand out in your interviews.

In our coaching programme with The MBB Offer Machine, we do not sell you sessions or time! We provide a solution to a problem! The problem of ensuring success in your upcoming McKinsey, BCG, or Bain interviews. 
Our solution rests on multiple foundational elements, including a unique internal learning platform, 1-on-1 coaching with senior mentors, group coaching formats, peer practicing, and 24/7 support. This system leads to a real transformation and an individualized development path, with an impact on your entire professional life far beyond just the offers you receive.

But don't just take our word for it! Our results speak for themselves. Our track record of offers received is proven through video testimonials from real people, and we even have a separate YouTube channel dedicated to showcasing our mentee's MBB offers.

So, the next time you're considering a coaching program, ask yourself if you want to focus on inputs or on outcomes. An outcome-oriented approach is always a smarter choice for your MBB preparation journey.
