Working with Adam was the best decision I made in 2011: I was admitted to HBS thanks to him. Adam’s approach to prepare a candidate is pragmatic to the bone: he cuts to the chase when necessary. I remember my initial consultation before we decided to work together; I had drafted a career goal that was quite far-fetched. Adam told me at once: “You don’t want to write that in your essay: it would be trying to climb a wall with your hands tied behind your back.” Let’s put it this way: it is both tough and fun working with Adam and it is rewarding!
Now let’s review all the advantages preparing your application with Adam
* Adam knows what sells in an application. Thanks to his experience, he is able to relentlessly challenge what’s in your application and to structure it in such a way that it will catch the eye of an Admissions’ Committee
* Adam is professional. His feedbacks were always timely and thorough. He is flexible and adapts to your constraints. As a consultant myself, I know how hard this can be. Adam always makes the appropriate efforts for his client
* Adam has excellent interpersonal skills. It is easy to brainstorm with him and I always felt free to talk to him about anything. It is like discussing with your old pal and your shrink at the same time! During a consultation, we would often chat about other subjects not necessarily related to the application – this time was free of charge. This would unleash our creativity when we went back to the essays
* Adam has a great network of advisors to help you prepare for your interview. Adam introduced me to two other coaches, which provided me with alternative perspectives and complementary advice to improve myself
Adam made the whole application process much more accessible and less dramatic. Above all, I built confidence through our collaboration. For that, I definitely believe that Adam is an EXCELLENT coach!
