McKinsey Shorter

Dear McKinsey,

I am writing in regards to the Associate Consultant position. Based on the job description, I believe my skills and experience make me a good candidate for the role.

In my current role as Senior Manager of Continuous Improvement at SPEAR, I lead requirements, budgeting, and ROI analysis for initiatives while briefing the CEO, President, CTO, and COO on the status of the business and associated risks/rewards. My ability to work collaboratively in a team and create an inclusive environment with people at all levels of an organization makes me confident that I would excel in this role. Additionally, my comfort with ambiguous, ever-changing situations is demonstrated by my success in managing more than 35 concurrent projects as Implementation Consultant at Evention LLC.

My quantitative thinking and analysis skills are supported by my successful completion of 55 projects that generated over $155,000 in revenue as well as my experience coordinating across multiple teams to streamline sales campaigns. Furthermore, I have a proven track record of effective communication with clients through email or over the phone which would be essential in this role.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Julia Braude
