## The Challenge

Coming from consulting, he had strong analytical chops but his stories sounded too "deck-driven" and not enough like product thinking. Recruiters loved his resume but he kept stalling at behavioral rounds.

## The Solution

He used PrepPilot's behavioral and product-sense scenarios to reframe each consulting project as a product story, ownership, customer impact, trade-offs. The AI feedback flagged his framework-heavy answers and pushed him toward sharper specifics.

## The Result

In two months he secured three PM offers and accepted one at a $10B unicorn with a 30% total comp increase.
