S1E9: Recession-Proof Resume


Listen Later

A killer resume is needed to open doors in the best of times. In times like these - with the potential for fewer open positions and a glut of qualified applicants - the way you present yourself becomes doubly important.

One of the things you've told us is that you are thinking about how to pivot in the midst of an economic downturn.

So, we put together this podcast on the first step you should be taking: Building a Recession-Proof Resume.

Management Consulted launched in the midst of the Great Recession, and immediately began helping hundreds of candidates land competitive offers across consulting, banking, and tech (including folks who had consulting offers rescinded but took a longer-term approach to end up in consulting anyways).

We've honed our approach over the last 12 years, and can't wait to share our best tips, strategies, and advice with you - and, as always, to answer your questions.

You overachievers can check out our Ultimate Guide to Consulting Resumes after the episode.
