Sharon had everything going for her. Top-tier MBA. MBB interview invites across the board. 

She'd done 50–60 cases – but didn't make it past a single first round.

What held her back wasn't her profile. It was her approach.

So she came back the next year when the stakes were even higher. This time, she did it differently – and landed McKinsey and Bain.

Katie breaks down what shifted and what re-recruiters (and first-timers who want to avoid the same trap) can take from Sharon's story.
