“John was amazing, he was great at explaining things and had a very positive vibe. He had talked about his life at evermore and how he had switched from Evercore to Carlyle. He then told me how to network more effectively and how to be a better candidate as a whole. He had said that when you are having a coffee chat not to talk as much about their day to day because that is all they are talking about usually. He said to try and connect about their interests and their hobbies because that is something that they would like to talk about.”

“Andre was kind and very insightful with my upcoming interview with HR for Evercore, particularly what kind of questions should come up and how to tailor your answers to be unique and really stand out amongst the crowd. Ultimately, I think he helped me prep a lot with clear next steps on what to research. ”
