Any tips for writing resume for MBB? Have been speaking to a partner at BCG and he has encouraged me to apply. Wondering what to highlight and what to skip out. Role is in digital transformation. Current role is senior consultant at D. I have been at my current job since graduation and haven’t written/updated my resume in 3 years. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks 🙏

There’s no magic trick. Focus on impact of what you did rather than what you did. That’s about it - same as any other resume.

Thank you!

^ especially quantitative impact (cost / risk reduction, metrics of impact of delivery, operational efficiency, etc)

Personally, I’d aim to also add the leadership lens anywhere you can as well. “Led client team of 5 marketing professionals to bring new xyz online...ultimately delivering abc value...”; “Initiated [internal office activity, affinity group]”; etc.
Also, would stress the importance of having a solid parallel structure (e.g. consistency in tenses / formatting, varied verbs used to describe what you did and the impact, etc.), in addition to what the folks above mention. Having been through experienced hire recruiting internally, and seen a bunch of resumes in the process, would say there is usually a clear sense of a great v. an average resume. If anyone is on the fence about offering an interview, I find it easier to make a push for a candidate with great content and strong delivery on the resume than one with great experience alone. Just my $0.02 though. Best of luck to you OP!
