Consulting × New Graduate

Expected graduate from Keio University, Faculty of Economics. Leveraging data analysis and structural thinking skills honed through internships and extracurricular activities, I am committed to visualizing clients' management issues and proposing actionable strategies. I aim to become an immediate asset by applying my proficiency in creating business documents using Excel and PowerPoint, along with my experience conducting research in English-speaking environments. My goal is to contribute effectively to project teams while continuously enhancing my ability to deliver high-quality consulting solutions that drive tangible results for clients.

📌 Career Summary

  • Summer Intern at ABC Consulting Co., Ltd. (Jul-Aug 2023): Participated in a sales channel expansion project for SMEs. Constructed growth scenarios via market research and competitor analysis, receiving praise for practical insights during the final presentation.
  • Student Staff at University Career Support Center (Apr 2022-Mar 2023): Managed corporate visit logistics and interview scheduling. Oversaw timelines for over 30 companies annually, significantly contributing to improved job placement rates for students.
  • Research Leader in Economics Seminar (Apr 2021-Mar 2023): Led a six-member team focusing on supply chain optimization through DX. Built time-series forecasting models using Python and presented findings as a poster at an academic conference.

📌 Achievements & Strengths

  • A 45-page market analysis deck created during my internship was submitted directly to the client's board of directors and adopted as a reference document for evaluating new business opportunities.
  • Improved interview booking efficiency by 1.8x compared to traditional methods through coordination with over 30 companies, consistently handling an average of 42 cases per month during my tenure as student staff.
  • Cleaned 1,200 valid survey responses using SQL and identified three key revenue improvement factors through correlation analysis. The resulting PDF report received the highest grade from the professor.
  • Demonstrated strong analytical capabilities by integrating qualitative customer interviews with quantitative data to resolve information asymmetry, accelerating decision-making processes in complex project environments.

📌 Skills

  • Business Documentation: Proficient in PowerPoint (storytelling structure, chart design), Word (standardized long-form documents), and OneNote (information organization).
  • Data Analysis & Visualization: Skilled in Excel (VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, Pivot Tables, Macro Recording), Tableau (dashboard creation basics), and SQL (SELECT/JOIN/GROUP BY operations).
  • Research & Language: Eiken Pre-1st Grade (TOEIC L&R 860), Web Scraping (BeautifulSoup basics), and Competitor Research Frameworks (SWOT, BCG, Porter's Five Forces).

📌 Self-PR

  • My strength lies in translating complex information into easily understandable formats. During an internship addressing sales channel restructuring, I resolved data fragmentation and stakeholder misalignment by conducting 30 customer interviews. I merged qualitative insights with quantitative data in Excel and created a one-page Executive Summary visualizing cost-benefit analyses for non-technical executives. This approach shortened the decision-making process by two weeks, enabling early project completion. As a consultant, I can eliminate information asymmetry and accelerate consensus-building.

💡 Key Tips

  • 💡Both foreign and Japanese firms prioritize problem-definition skills and hypothesis-driven thinking; practice breaking down news events using standard frameworks regularly.
  • 💡Adhere strictly to resume character limits. Focus on readability by utilizing white space effectively and position your most significant achievements near the top.
