I think I found Gaurav at the perfect time during my prep! I was exploring consulting and trying to understand if I fit in this universe andI had the pleasure to see him in person even before I decided consulting was for me, so he pretty much helped me avoid any unlearning I would have to do! Along with actual casing skills, Gaurav was also an emotional support through a difficult process. I cannot recommend working with him enough because he definitely played a big role in my triple jump. I’m still a part of the community he is building for young consultants and wishing him best for all his endeavors.

I had the pleasure of working with Gaurav during my MBA journey, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. As a consulting coach, he provided invaluable guidance while I was applying to various firms. His methodical approach to both case preparation and fit interviews was instrumental in my success. Gaurav excels at helping you identify and showcase your strongest attributes, ensuring you present your best self. He also takes the time to understand your unique strengths and weaknesses, providing targeted strategies for improvement. His insights and support were crucial in building my confidence and enhancing my skills. Thanks to Gaurav’s coaching, I felt well-prepared and confident during my interviews. If you're looking for a coach who genuinely invests in your growth and success, Gaurav is the one to turn to.

I had the pleasure of attending a consulting workshop led by Gaurav Bhosle, and it was a transformative experience. Gaurav's deep insights from his McKinsey background, combined with his exceptional coaching skills, made complex concepts easy to grasp. His structured approach to problem-solving during the case study exercise was invaluable. I highly recommend Gaurav for anyone looking to sharpen their consulting skills or seeking expert career guidance.

I worked with Gaurav as my coach for getting in to MBB and afterwards as a career planning mentor. He is always very structured and gives invaluable tips, tricks and advice that I am not able to receive anywhere else. All his strategic guidance had actionable next steps that I could start applying immediately. He has multi-dimensional perspective and makes me see things that I otherwise would not be aware of. I highly recommend working with him to others. I appreciate all the support he has given me. I would like to keep in touch and get his mentorship throughout all pivotal changes in my career.

Gaurav! An absolutely phenomenal human being and an even better consulting coach. Gaurav's case-interview teachings were pivotal in me securing my consulting offer. He doesn't make you memorize terms or frameworks, but instead trains you to think like a consultant. I had an interview many weeks after my final session with Gaurav, and it was shocking how much my thinking had fundamentally changed during the interview from when I started casing. Gaurav is the perfect combination of patient and forward. He will tell you bluntly exactly what you're doing wrong, but never in a way that makes you think you can't get it right the next time. He is also extremely kind and humble, which I feel are attributes that make him shine even brighter. Finally, Gaurav has many pearls of wisdom for all corners of professional development. Although I only wanted his consulting-prep services, I received extremely valuable advice that I feel all working professionals would benefit from. All in all, Gaurav singlehandedly taught me the importance of investing in oneself. If you have the opportunity to work with him, you really shouldn't miss it.

Gaurav has been an extremely impactful coach since 2015 in my professional journey. His methods of helping me constantly evaluate my present situation vs the vision led me to take the suited next move in my career. His guidance on assessing the environment, engaging with stakeholders & having open and tactful conversations with them has a remarkably positive outcome on the overall next move. I highly recommend Gaurav for his career coaching abilities.

When I decided I wanted to focus on securing a job offer in consulting, early 2022, I can say I've been quite lucky to have met Gaurav, who eventually became my career coach for several months. Gaurav helped me with consulting interview preparation (case & fit interviews) in the best possible way. After our first sessions, he quickly came up with a tailored and structured plan where we essentially tackled all sorts of case and fit interviews with a focus on my weakness areas. He provided very strong feedback after every session which allowed me to perform well in my interviews and taught me how to be and think like a consultant even before becoming one. His extraordinary consulting skills combined with his passion for mentoring and guiding young adults like myself is what makes him a real mentor. Last but not least, he saw the potential in me which I couldn't see and taught me the most important skill anyone asks for: believing in yourself.

Gaurav had significant impact on my transition from engineering to management consulting. He went the extra mile in providing the support and guidance necessary to develop the wide range of skills required to succeed in consulting. My experience having Gaurav as a coach and mentor was beyond excellent.

Group COO’s office at Sea groupGroup COO’s office at Sea group Gaurav is a great thought partner where he helped me navigate my career transition thoughtfully. Very result driven with tangible actions taken, also come as a genuine friend supporting me from time to time.

Gaurav can be easily termed as the crème de la crème of all the talent we have got in this country. An early achiever who has 'been there, done that', you approach him with any problem and can be rest assured to get honest fruitful guidance. He has helped me understand my optimal career options and gave me confidence to get my career back on track. His consulting advice is the best you can get.

Gaurav approach comprised of two similar but distinct tracks: coaching and counseling. The goal is to support people in making informed decisions about their career development and trajectory, as well as offer various tools that they can use—résumés, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles—to meet those goals. Although not all career coaches have clinical training, as he does, definitions of the field—and the work—may still vary among more conventionally trained coaches. In general, “coaching” tends to be a solution-oriented approach, which involves working with clients to see what concrete steps they can take to achieve career objectives. “Counseling,” however, is more process driven—you look at whether there are any behavioral, emotional or psychological issues that could be impeding a person’s desired career ambitions. His core virtue of career coaching is to help people assess their professional situations with a greater degree of honesty, curiosity, empathy and compassion. My Heartiest wishes to Gaurav in his journey of blossoming more and More Career

Gaurav is a coach with a Midas touch. I have known him for last 5 years in various capacities. He has helped several individuals realize their dream of working in Consulting or Banking industry. Apart from his own experience, he brings to the table an infectious passion for career excellence and a very structured approach to career decisions. I wish all the best to him in his mission of shaping careers.

Gaurav is a great career coach. He is easy to work with and understands the needs of the professionals seeking career progression. Career strategies he recommends have been useful and effective. His past experience as a McKinsey consultant adds further value in determining strategic career moves. I am sure clients will greatly benefit from Gaurav's expertise.

Gaurav is a True Career Strategist. He pushes you to think long term and structure your thoughts. His grasp on career advancement levers for mid-management executives is excellent. Highly recommend his coaching/advice for those who are at an important juncture in their career
