Olivia stumbled across consulting early in her undergrad journey, joined BCG's "Advance" program for sophomore women, and parlayed a summer internship into a full-time Associate offer.

Sounds fairly standard - right? 

But when you dig a little deeper, you'll realize that Olivia's journey into consulting was anything but standard - and carried a lot of hard-fought lessons.

This conversation is about mining out those lessons from her story, including:

• The unconventional strategy she used to stand out in the recruitment process
• How to show up confidently in case and fit interviews
• The mindset shift that transformed her networking approach
• Tips for bouncing back from interview mistakes
• & much more
