Co-founder

Max is IGotAnOffer’s founder. He started his career at Bloomberg but wanted to switch to strategy consulting. He was interviewing off-cycle, didn't go to the right schools, etc. It turned out to be a real struggle and took him about a year to get a job at Oliver Wyman in London. During that process he learned more about interviewing. While working as a strategy consultant, Max started IGotAnOffer as a way to give back. He wrote blog posts about interviewing, coached people to get offers in consulting, etc. After 5 years in consulting he decided to make the jump full time on IGotAnOffer. The company now has hundreds of coaches on the platform helping people at critical points in their careers in tech, consulting and finance. And we're just getting started!
