The Mission.

To become the most entertaining and useful finance community online.


The What.

WallStreetOasis.com is one of the fastest growing, most entertaining finance communities online. With over 200,000 posts to date, 1.6 million page views and over 150,000 unique visitors a month, you can be sure that your questions will get answered in our forums.

WSO also provides several services to help you as you progress through your career. We offer detailed industry and interview guides, elite private GMAT tutors, professional resume review services as well as access to top Wall Street jobs.

Come join your fellow primates now!

The Why.

Every year some of the brightest, most driven and optimistic undergraduates from top colleges and universities embark on a career on Wall Street. At some point along the way many of these same students become disillusioned, frustrated and stressed about their job. What is my next step? Should I go to business school? Should I try to get a job in private equity at X fund? What about hedge funds or consulting at Y company?

The primary goal of WallStreetOasis.com is to help educate young finance professionals and students as they approach critical career decisions while simultaneously providing an outlet that can make them laugh. It is a place where finance professionals can come to learn more about other related fields, network with other users and even apply to specific jobs that interest them.

Looking for advice? Need to rant or rave? Share your horror stories? Want to give some survival tips? Check out our forums. Looking for a job? Post your resume here or browse our jobs here. Need to learn a thing or two about i-banking, private equity or hedge funds? Again, check out our forums. Purchase a book or get your WallStreetOasis.com gear in our store.

Whether you're a young fresh-eyed chimp or an old embittered ape, we hope you find solace here at the Oasis!


The History.

WallStreetOasis.com was initially launched in May 2006 as iBankingOasis.com, a forum-based site for investment bankers and prospective monkeys. As growth has accelerated and more professionals from other industries have joined (private equity, hedge funds, S&T, equity research, asset management, consulting, etc.), we decided to make them feel more welcome by changing the name to WallStreetOasis.com.


The Team.

Patrick Curtis, Founder and CEO

Patrick is currently in his 2nd year at The Wharton School of Business pursuing his MBA in entrepreneurial management. At Wharton Patrick is actively involved in the entrepreneurial community, with Wall Street Oasis selected into the Venture Initiation Program in 2008 and awarded the Wharton Venture Award in 2009. His experience includes two years in investment banking and four years in private equity making investments in the healthcare and business service industries. In his spare time Patrick enjoys playing poker, watching any Boston sports team and traveling abroad.

Sean Lange, CTO

Sean is the founder of webthingee, a Drupal web design and development firm. He currently works out in California where he lives with his wife and two daughters. Sean is responsible for the overall layout, module installations and general site maintenance that keeps the community looking good.

Khalid Baheyeldin, IT Consultant

The newest member of the team and arguably the most talented developer in the Drupal community, Khalid lives in Ontario, Canada.

With more than two decades of experience in the Information Technology field, he is the co-founder and Managing Partner of 2bits.com, Inc., which specializes in Drupal consulting, including scalability, performance, development and customization. He is a permanent member of the Drupal Association's General Assembly which elects the Board of Directors.

Khalid is responsible for managing our servers and back end infrastructure for scalability and security. This means the he keeps the community fast and secure, and provides Drupal expertise where needed.
