Investment Banking Career Roadmap (optional)

“Tim was a massive help. He got me to see informational interviews as real conversations instead of interrogations, and gave me great tips on what to ask and how to follow up. He also helped me figure out which firms actually suit my goals, so my outreach feels way more focused now. Really appreciate the time he put in, would definitely recommend him.”

Investment Banking Mock Interview

“Tim was awesome. Tim gave me a great mock interview covering both behavioral and technical questions. His technical questions were sharp and realistic, and his feedback was specific and easy to act on. He took time to show me how to tighten my answers and explained the reasoning behind each technical concept instead of just giving the answer. He was also friendly and easy to talk to, which made the session feel natural. I left feeling much more prepared. I would recommend Tim to anyone getting ready for IB interviews.”
