Investment Banking Short Resume Review / Recap

“Mentor was very flexible with scheduling and was very knowledgable about many of WSO's opportunities such as the avalible internships. He also gave a lot of good advice on the kind of information to put on your resume. Additionally, he was very open to for when I can email him once I've completing my resume. He also gave some advice on clubs in how I can reach out if I need help with my applications through Slack. I definitely look forward to working with him again as I continue to work on my resume. ”

Investment Banking LinkedIn Review

“My meeting with Luke was extremely helpful in giving me a clearer understanding of the steps I need to take to improve my positioning for investment banking recruitment. We focused on three key areas: strengthening and refining my resume, being more intentional and consistent with networking, and dedicating significant time to technical preparation. I especially appreciated how Luke was concise and straight to the point with his feedback. He clearly identified where I can improve and provided actionable advice that I can immediately apply as I continue preparing for the recruiting process.”
