Free Recruiting Guides On PEPath - Would Love Your Feedback

Built something I wish I'd had when I was going through recruiting and figured I'd share it here.

When I was prepping, the good material was all over the place - headhunter info on one forum, technical questions in some random Google Drive or in PDFs that got passed around from analyst to analyst. Spent more time tracking things down than actually studying.

Called it PEPath. Google it, first result.

The blog has a handful of free guides that I think people here would get value out of even if you don't care about the rest. 

All free to read, don't need to sign up for anything.

Also just launched an iOS app with the full toolkit - question bank, flashcards, headhunter CRM, pipeline tracker. Free tier covers most of it. Search PEPath on the App Store, Finance category.

Mainly posting because I'd really appreciate honest feedback from people actually running the gauntlet right now or who've been through it. What's missing, what's off, what you wish someone had told you when you were prepping.
