One-on-one mock case interviews over video with Zayed, a former BCG Visiting Associate. You run the case, he plays the interviewer, and you get written feedback on structure, math, insight and synthesis before the real thing.
Candidates coached by Zayed have gone on to offers at McKinsey, BCG and Bain.
Choose a 60-minute slot that suits you. You get a Google Meet link and a short prep note the day before.
Zayed gives you the case the way an MBB interviewer would. You structure it, work the numbers, find the insight and close with a recommendation. First case ever? The session starts with how cases actually work.
Within 24 hours you get written feedback on each part of the case: what to keep doing, what to fix, and exactly what to practice before the next one.
Every session is one on one over video, in English, with a written scorecard afterwards.
For candidates who have never done a case, or have only read about them.
For candidates with an interview coming up who want the real thing, under pressure.
For candidates with a date on the calendar and two to three weeks to get sharp.
Candidates who prepared with Zayed have received offers from all three MBB firms.
Zayed Alharbi. Former Visiting Associate at Boston Consulting Group, Riyadh. Industrial Engineering, King Abdulaziz University.
Zayed went through MBB recruiting as a student, then spent six months inside BCG seeing what the interviews and the work actually reward. He started running mock cases for friends preparing for the same interviews, and several of them now hold offers from McKinsey, BCG and Bain.
Every session is still run by Zayed himself, in English, at the pace of a real interview.
The name Zayed comes from the Arabic for “to add”. That is the standard for every session: it should add something you can use in the next case.

Mostly McKinsey, BCG and Bain, since that is where the format is strictest. The same practice carries over to Strategy&, Kearney, Oliver Wyman and the Big Four strategy teams.
A laptop with a camera, pen and paper, and a quiet 60 minutes. You get a Google Meet link after booking.
No. Sessions are about the case itself: structure, math, insight and synthesis. Fit and personal experience questions are not covered, so plan those separately.
Sessions run in English because the interview will. If something needs a quick explanation in Arabic, that is fine.
Ideally two to three weeks out, so there is time to practice what the scorecard flags. A single mock the week before still helps.
