Product Menlo Coaching

Consultant Alice van Harten

I have been recommending Menlo Coaching to everyone I know applying to business school. Alice is the most genuinely supportive consultant you could ask for, who is tastefully strategic and brings out your very honest and best self. I would encourage anyone to at least have a free trial call with her--I could tell instantly that she knew what she's doing.

It was important for me not to work with someone who fits applicants into cookie-cutter formulas. Alice and I spent a lot of time discussing my background and the experiences that defined me, finding themes for my content. Alice draws from her extensive experience in the MBA application field to help me contextualize my background against the overall applicant landscape. I found incredibly helpful and applicable her insights into approaching recommendation writers and preparing for interviews.

What I like most about Alice is that she isn't afraid to be direct in her feedback and is always willing to discuss any points I bring up--she is a true partner in the process. I also felt that she genuinely cares about her clients and their finding a school where they can actually thrive. She was there throughout my application journey and my HBS acceptance.

Sign up early (definitely before the summer) as she takes a limited number of clients to make sure she gives each enough time and attention.
