Based on the most helpful WSO content, your eligibility criteria and team-building effort align well with the competitive nature of stock pitch events like the Citadel Intercollegiate Stock Pitch. To maximize your chances of finding strong teammates:

  1. Target Finance/CS Clubs: Reach out to finance or computer science clubs at your university or nearby schools. These groups often have students with relevant skills and interest in competitions like this.

  2. Leverage Networking Platforms: Use LinkedIn or university-specific platforms to post about your team-building effort. Highlight the eligibility criteria and the unique opportunity this competition offers.

  3. Pitch Your Vision: When recruiting, emphasize what you bring to the table (e.g., your finance/CS background) and what you’re looking for in teammates (e.g., strong analytical skills, presentation experience, etc.).

  4. Search for Past Participants: Look for students who have participated in similar competitions. They might be interested or know others who are.

  5. Practice Together: Once your team is formed, use resources like WSO’s stock pitch templates and financial modeling guides to prepare effectively.
